Estimating Word Alignment Quality for SMT Reordering Tasks
Previous studies of the effect of word alignment on translation quality in SMT generally explore link level metrics only and mostly do not show any clear connections between alignment and SMT quality. In this paper, we specifically investigate the impact of word alignment on two pre-reordering tasks in translation, using a wider range of quality indicators than previously done. Experiments on G...
متن کاملA Discriminative Reordering Parser for IWSLT 2013
We participated in the IWSLT 2013 Evaluation Campaign for the MT track for two official directions: German↔English. Our system consisted of a reordering module and a statistical machine translation (SMT) module under a pre-ordering SMT framework. We trained the reordering module using three scalable methods in order to utilize training instances as many as possible. The translation quality of o...
متن کاملNew Statistical and Syntactic Models for Machine Translation
Significant improvements have been achieved in machine translation (MT) over the past few years, mostly motivated by the appearance of statistical machine translation (SMT) technology, which is currently considered the best way to perform MT of natural languages. The main goal of this thesis is to enhance the classical SMT models, introducing syntactical knowledge in the pre-translation step by...
متن کاملA Discriminative Latent Variable-Based "DE" Classifier for Chinese-English SMT
Syntactic reordering on the source-side is an effective way of handling word order differences. The { (DE) construction is a flexible and ubiquitous syntactic structure in Chinese which is a major source of error in translation quality. In this paper, we propose a new classifier model — discriminative latent variable model (DPLVM) — to classify the DE construction to improve the accuracy of the...
متن کامل(Hidden) Conditional Random Fields Using Intermediate Classes for Statistical Machine Translation
One of the major components of Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) are generative translation models. As in other fields, where the transition from generative to discriminative training resulted in higher performance, it seems likely that translation models should be trained in a discriminative way. But due to the nature of SMT with large vocabularies, hidden alignments, reordering, and large...
