A corpus-centered approach to spoken language translation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper reports the latest performance of components and features of a project named CorpusCentered Computation (C'3), which targets a translation technology suitable for spoken language translation. C3 places corpora at the center of the technology. Translation knowledge is extracted from corpora by both EBMT and SMT methods, translation quality is gauged by referring to corpora, the best translation among multiple-engine outputs is selected based on corpora and the corpora themselves are paraphrased or filtered by automated processes.

One of the key issues in spoken language translation is how to deal with unrestricted expressions in spontaneous utterances. This research is centered on the development of a Chinese paraphraser that automatically paraphrases utterances prior to transfer in Chinese-Japanese spoken language translation.

متن کاملSynthetic Data for Neural Machine Translation of Spoken-Dialects
In this paper, we introduce a novel approach to generate synthetic data for training Neural Machine Translation systems. The proposed approach transforms a given parallel corpus between a written language and a target language to a parallel corpus between a spoken dialect variant and the target language. Our approach is language independent and can be used to generate data for any variant of th...
