Statistical pattern-based machine translation with statistical French-English machine translation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We developed a two-stage machine translation (MT) system. The first stage consists of an automatically created pattern-based machine translation system, and the second stage consists of a standard statistical machine translation (SMT) system. For French-English machine translation, we first used a French-English pattern-based MT, and we obtained ”English” sentences from French sentences. Second, we used a standard SMT. This means that we translated ”English” to English machine translation. We obtained a Bilingual Evaluation Understudy (BLEU) score of 0.5201 in the Basic Travel Expression Corpus French English (BTEC-FE) task using our proposed system. In contrast, we obtained a BLEU score of 0.5077 in the BTEC-FE task using a standard SMT system (Moses). This means that our proposed system is effective in the BTEC-FE task. However, our system placed 7th out of 9 systems.

A new model for persian multi-part words edition based on statistical machine translation
Multi-part words in English language are hyphenated and hyphen is used to separate different parts. Persian language consists of multi-part words as well. Based on Persian morphology, half-space character is needed to separate parts of multi-part words where in many cases people incorrectly use space character instead of half-space character. This common incorrectly use of space leads to some s...
متن کاملThe Correlation of Machine Translation Evaluation Metrics with Human Judgement on Persian Language
Machine Translation Evaluation Metrics (MTEMs) are the central core of Machine Translation (MT) engines as they are developed based on frequent evaluation. Although MTEMs are widespread today, their validity and quality for many languages is still under question. The aim of this research study was to examine the validity and assess the quality of MTEMs from Lexical Similarity set on machine tra...

We describe the system used in our submission to the WMT-2009 French-English translation task. We use the Moses phrasebased Statistical Machine Translation system with two simple modications of the decoding input and word-alignment strategy based on morphology, and analyze their impact on translation quality.

RWTH participated in the shared translation task of the Fourth Workshop of Statistical Machine Translation (WMT 2009) with the German-English, French-English and Spanish-English pair in each translation direction. The submissions were generated using a phrase-based and a hierarchical statistical machine translation systems with appropriate morpho-syntactic enhancements. POS-based reorderings of...
