Constrained Recombination in an Example-based Machine Translation System
نویسنده
چکیده
Constraints in natural language processing play an important role. In this paper we show which impact (word-order) constraints have on the translation results, when they are applied in the recombination step of a linear EBMT system. Both the baseline EBMT system and the constrained one are implemented during this research. In the experiments we use two language-pairs (RomanianEnglish and Romanian-German), in both directions of translations. In these language constellations, Romanian, an inflected language with Latin root, is considered under-resourced. This aspect makes the process of translation even more chal-

A 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...
متن کاملImproved Constrained PID Control Design based on Connvex-Concave Optimization
In this paper, an algorithm is proposed to improve the design of constrained PID controller based on convex-concave optimization. This design method is based on the optimization of a performance cost function, taking into account the stability and efficiency constraints with frequency domain analysis in which the concepts of sensitivity and complementary sensitivity has been used. It is shown, ...
متن کاملA Phrasal EBMT System for Translating English to Bengali
The present work describes a Phrasal Example Based Machine Translation system from English to Bengali that identifies the phrases in the input through a shallow analysis, retrieves the target phrases using a Phrasal Example base and finally combines the target language phrases employing some heuristics based on the phrase ordering rules for Bengali. The paper focuses on the structure of the nou...
متن کاملTechnical report : OpenMaTrEx , a free , open - source hybrid data - driven machine translation system ∗
This report describes OpenMaTrEx, a free/open-source hybrid data-driven machine translation system containing core example-based components based on the marker hypothesis. OpenMaTrEx comprises a marker-driven chunker, a collection of chunk aligners, tools to merge (“hybridise”) marker-based and statistical translation tables, two engines —a simple proof-of-concept monotone “example-based” recom...
متن کاملExample-Based Controlled Translation
The first research on integrating controlled language data in an Example-Based Machine Translation (EBMT) system was published in [Gough & Way, 2003]. We improve on their sub-sentential alignment algorithm to populate the system’s databases with more than six times as many potentially useful fragments. Together with two simple novel improvements—correcting mistranslations in the lexicon, and al...
