System Description: Dependency-based Pre-ordering for Japanese-Chinese Machine Translation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the Beijing Jiaotong University Japanese-Chinese machine translation system which participated in the 1st Workshop on Asian Translation (WAT 2014). We propose a preordering approach based on dependency parsing for Japanese-Chinese statistical machine translation (SMT). Our system achieves a BLEU of 24.12 and a RIBES of 79.48 on the Japanese-Chinese translation task in the official evaluation.

Chinese-to-Japanese Patent Machine Translation based on Syntactic Pre-ordering for WAT 2016
This paper presents our Chinese-to-Japanese patent machine translation system for WAT 2016 (Group ID: ntt) that uses syntactic pre-ordering over Chinese dependency structures. Chinese words are reordered by a learning-to-rank model based on pairwise classification to obtain word order close to Japanese. In this year’s system, two different machine translation methods are compared: traditional p...
متن کاملChinese-to-Japanese Patent Machine Translation based on Syntactic Pre-ordering forWAT 2015
This paper presents our Chinese-toJapanese patent machine translation system for WAT 2015 (Group ID: ntt) that uses syntactic pre-ordering over Chinese dependency structures. A head word and its modifier words are reordered by hand-written rules or a learning-to-rank model. Our system outperforms baseline phrase-based machine translations and competes with baseline tree-to-string machine transl...
متن کاملEmpirical Dependency-Based Head Finalization for Statistical Chinese-, English-, and French-to-Myanmar (Burmese) Machine Translation
We conduct dependency-based head finalization for statistical machine translation (SMT) for Myanmar (Burmese). Although Myanmar is an understudied language, linguistically it is a head-final language with similar syntax to Japanese and Korean. So, applying the efficient techniques of Japanese and Korean processing to Myanmar is a natural idea. Our approach is a combination of two approaches. Th...
متن کاملDependency-based Pre-ordering for Chinese-English Machine Translation
In statistical machine translation (SMT), syntax-based pre-ordering of the source language is an effective method for dealing with language pairs where there are great differences in their respective word orders. This paper introduces a novel pre-ordering approach based on dependency parsing for Chinese-English SMT. We present a set of dependency-based preordering rules which improved the BLEU ...
متن کاملWord Order Does NOT Differ Significantly Between Chinese and Japanese
We propose a pre-reordering approach for Japanese-to-Chinese statistical machine translation (SMT). The approach uses dependency structure and manually designed reordering rules to arrange morphemes of Japanese sentences into Chinese-like word order, before a baseline phrase-based (PB) SMT system applied. Experimental results on the ASPEC-JC data show that the improvement of the proposed pre-re...
