EBMT Experiments for the English-Romanian Language Pair
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper describes an attempt of constructing an example-based machine translation application for the English-Romanian language pair by making the best possible use of the resources and the pre-processing tools available in our working group. Therefore, the application is not necessarily innovative in the general field of EBMT, but an experiment of what can be done with specific resources and tools, for a specific pair of languages, in a research direction of machine translation which is not very much explored.

Improving Recombination in a Linear EBMT System by Use of Constraints
(Automatic) machine translation (MT) is one of the most challenging domains in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and plays an important role in ensuring global communication, especially in a multilingual world with access to large amounts of Internet resources. As rule-based MT approaches need manually developed resources, new MT directions have been developed over the last twenty years, such a...
متن کاملExperiments with Small-sized Corpora in CBMT
There is no doubt that in the last couple of years corpus-based machine translation (CBMT) approaches have been in focus. Each of the approaches has its advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, hybrid approaches have been developed. This paper presents a comparative study of CBMT approaches, using three types of systems: a statistical MT (SMT) system, an example-based MT (EBMT) system and a hyb...

متن کاملConstrained Recombination in an Example-based Machine Translation System
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 Romani...
متن کاملRapid Deployment of a New METIS Language Pair: Catalan-English
We show here the viability of a rapid deployment of a new language pair within the METIS architecture. Contrarily to other SMT or EBMT systems, the METIS architecture allows us to forgo parallel texts, which for many language pairs, such as Catalan-English are hard to obtain. In this experiment, we have successfully built a Catalan-English prototype by simply plugging a POS tagger for Catalan a...
