Parsing English into Abstract Meaning Representation Using Syntax-Based Machine Translation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a parser for Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR). We treat Englishto-AMR conversion within the framework of string-to-tree, syntax-based machine translation (SBMT). To make this work, we transform the AMR structure into a form suitable for the mechanics of SBMT and useful for modeling. We introduce an AMR-specific language model and add data and features drawn from semantic resources. Our resulting AMR parser significantly improves upon state-of-the-art results.

متن کاملSupervised Syntax-based Alignment between English Sentences and Abstract Meaning Representation Graphs
As alignment links are not given between English sentences and Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR) graphs in the AMR annotation, automatic alignment becomes indispensable for training an AMR parser. Previous studies formalize it as a string-to-string problem, and solve it in an unsupervised way. In this paper, we formalize it as a syntax-based alignment problem, and solve it in a supervised m...
متن کاملStatistical Translation Model Based On Source Syntax Structure
Syntax-based statistical translation model is proved to be better than phrasebased model, especially for language pairs with very different syntax structures, such as Chinese and English. In this talk I will introduce a serial of statistical translation models based on source syntax structure. The tree-based model uses the one best syntax tree for translation. The forest-based model uses a comp...
متن کاملMachine Translation Through Clausal Syntax : A Statistical Approach for Chinese to English by Dan Lowe Wheeler
Language pairs such as Chinese and English with largely differing word order have proved to be one of the greatest challenges in statistical machine translation. One reason is that such techniques usually work with sentences as flat strings of words, rather than explicitly attempting to parse any sort of hierarchical structural representation. Because even simple syntactic differences between l...
متن کاملA HEURISTIC APPROACH TO ENGLISH - INTO - JAPANESE MACHINE TRANSLATION Yoshihiko Nitta
Practical machine translation must be considered from a heuristic point of view rather than from a purely rigid analytical l inguistic method. An English-into-Japanese translation system named ATHENE based on a Heuristic Parsing Model (HPM) has been developed. The experiment shows some advantageous points such as simplification of transforming and generating phase, semilocalization of multiple ...
