Incremental Translation Utilizing Constituent Boundary Patterns
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have proposed an incremental translation method in Transfer-Driven Machine Translation (TDMT). In this method, constituent boundary patterns are applied to an input in a bottom-up fashion. Also, by dealing with best-only substructures, the explosion of structural ambiguity is constrained and an efficient translation of a lengthy input can be achieved. Through preliminary experimentation our new TDMT has been shown to be more efficient while main-tMning translation quality.

Learning Translation Boundaries for Phrase-Based Decoding
Constrained decoding is of great importance not only for speed but also for translation quality. Previous efforts explore soft syntactic constraints which are based on constituent boundaries deduced from parse trees of the source language. We present a new framework to establish soft constraints based on a more natural alternative: translation boundary rather than constituent boundary. We propo...
متن کاملSimultaneous Interpretation Utilizing Example-based Incremental Transfer
This paper describes a practical method of automatic simultaneous interpretation utilizing an example-based incremental transfer mechanism. We primarily show how incremental translation is achieved in the context of an example-based framework. We then examine the type of translation examples required for a simultaneous interpretation to create naturally communicative dialogs. Finally, we propos...

Towards smooth and natural multilingual speech communication, it is desired to develop simultaneous interpretation systems.
