EBMT by Tree-Phrasing: a Pilot Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a study we conducted to build a repository storing associations between simple dependency treelets in a source language and their corresponding phrases in a target language. To assess the impact of this resource in EBMT, we used the repository to compute coverage statistics on a test bitext and on a nbest list of translation candidates produced by a standard phrase-based decoder.

Tree-based modeling of prosodic phrasing and segmental duration for Korean TTS systems
This study describes the tree-based modeling of prosodic phrasing, pause duration between phrases and segmental duration for Korean TTS systems. We collected 400 sentences from various genres and built a corresponding speech corpus uttered by a professional female announcer. The phonemic and prosodic boundaries were manually marked on the recorded speech, and morphological analysis, grapheme-to...
متن کاملA new prosodic phrasing model for indian language telugu
Prosodic phrasing is an important and more difficult a problem for Indian languages, as the Indian language scripts use very little or no punctuation. This paper reports a preliminary attempt on data-driven modeling of prosodic phrase boundary prediction for the Indian language Telugu. In an effort to identify meaningful features that affect the prosodic phrasing, a new feature, namely mopheme ...
متن کاملLog-linear Generation Models for Example-based Machine Translation
This paper describes log-linear generation models for Example-based Machine Translation (EBMT). In the generation model, various knowledge sources are described as the feature functions and are incorporated into the log-linear models. Six features are used in this paper: matching score and context similarity, to estimate the similarity between the input sentence and the translation example; wor...
متن کاملDescription of KYOTO EBMT System in PatentMT at NTCIR-10
This paper describes“KYOTO”EBMT system that attended PatentMT at NTCIR-10. When translating very different language pairs such as Japanese-English, it is very important to handle sentences in tree structures to overcome the difference. Many of recent studies incorporate tree structures in some parts of translation process, but not all the way from model training (parallel sentence alignment) to...
متن کاملProsodic phrasing with inductive learning
Prosodic phrasing is an important component in modern TTS systems, which inserts natural and reasonable breaks into long utterance. This paper reports the study of applying several inductive machine-learning algorithms to prosodic phrasing in unrestricted Chinese texts. Two feature sets are carefully selected considering the effectiveness and reliability of them in practice. Then features and t...
