European Language Translation with Weighted Finite State Transducers: The CUED MT System for the 2008 ACL Workshop on SMT
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe the Cambridge University Engineering Department phrase-based statistical machine translation system for SpanishEnglish and French-English translation in the ACL 2008 Third Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation Shared Task. The CUED system follows a generative model of translation and is implemented by composition of component models realised as Weighted Finite State Transducers, without the use of a special-purpose decoder. Details of system tuning for both Europarl and News translation tasks are provided.

متن کاملThe CUED HiFST System for the WMT10 Translation Shared Task
This paper describes the Cambridge University Engineering Department submission to the Fifth Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation. We report results for the French-English and Spanish-English shared translation tasks in both directions. The CUED system is based on HiFST, a hierarchical phrase-based decoder implemented using weighted finite-state transducers. In the French-English task, w...
متن کاملCUED Submission for the WMT10 Translation Shared Task
This paper describes the Cambridge University Engineering Department (CUED) system for the ACL 2010 fifth workshop on statistical machine translation (WMT10). We participated in the FrenchEnglish and Spanish-English translation shared tasks in both directions. The CUED system is a hierarchical phrase-based system that uses finite-state transducers and lattice rescoring. In the French-English ta...
متن کاملA Hybrid Machine Translation System Based on a Monotone Decoder
In this paper, a hybrid Machine Translation (MT) system is proposed by combining the result of a rule-based machine translation (RBMT) system with a statistical approach. The RBMT uses a set of linguistic rules for translation, which leads to better translation results in terms of word ordering and syntactic structure. On the other hand, SMT works better in lexical choice. Therefore, in our sys...
