Syntax-Directed Phrase-based Statistical Machine Translation
نویسنده
چکیده
The SDTS has been applied in the field of compiler and in transfer-based machine translation. After the parsing step, the syntactic structure of a sentence is identified. The parse tree will be analyzed, augmented, and transformed by later phases in the SMT system. Those phases are controlled by syntax. We use the stochastic SDTS to model such kind of translation process for phrase-based SMT. This approach has a number of advantages as follow:

A Detailed Analysis of Phrase-based and Syntax-based Machine Translation: The Search for Systematic Differences
This paper describes a range of automatic and manual comparisons of phrase-based and syntax-based statistical machine translation methods applied to English-German and English-French translation of user-generated content. The syntax-based methods underperform the phrase-based models and the relaxation of syntactic constraints to broaden translation rule coverage means that these models do not n...
متن کاملComparing Phrase-based and Syntax-based Paraphrase Generation
Paraphrase generation can be regarded as machine translation where source and target language are the same. We use the Moses statistical machine translation toolkit for paraphrasing, comparing phrase-based to syntax-based approaches. Data is derived from a recently released, large scale (2.1M tokens) paraphrase corpus for Dutch. Preliminary results indicate that the phrase-based approach perfor...
متن کاملConstituent Reordering and Syntax Models for English-to-Japanese Statistical Machine Translation
We present a constituent parsing-based reordering technique that improves the performance of the state-of-the-art English-to-Japanese phrase translation system that includes distortion models by 4.76 BLEU points. The phrase translation model with reordering applied at the pre-processing stage outperforms a syntax-based translation system that incorporates a phrase translation model, a hierarchi...
متن کاملNiuTrans: An Open Source Toolkit for Phrase-based and Syntax-based Machine Translation
We present a new open source toolkit for phrase-based and syntax-based machine translation. The toolkit supports several state-of-the-art models developed in statistical machine translation, including the phrase-based model, the hierachical phrase-based model, and various syntaxbased models. The key innovation provided by the toolkit is that the decoder can work with various grammars and offers...
متن کاملEdinburgh's Statistical Machine Translation Systems for WMT16
This paper describes the University of Edinburgh’s phrase-based and syntax-based submissions to the shared translation tasks of the ACL 2016 First Conference on Machine Translation (WMT16). We submitted five phrase-based and five syntaxbased systems for the news task, plus one phrase-based system for the biomedical task.
