Constraint Handling Rules (CHR) is a rule-based language to specify application-oriented constraint solvers. CHR requires a host language that provides the basic constraints used in a CHR program. In this paper, we argue that an integrated functional logic language like Curry is an appropriate host language for CHR since it supports a natural formulation of constraint handling rules and a seaml...

In cases when phrase-based statistical machine translation (SMT) is applied to languages with rather free word order and rich morphology, translated texts often are not fluent due to misused inflectional forms and wrong word order between phrases or even inside the phrase. One of possible solutions how to improve translation quality is to apply factored models. The paper presents work on Englis...

In this paper, we introduce a hybrid search for attention-based neural machine translation (NMT). A target phrase learned with statistical MT models extends a hypothesis in the NMT beam search when the attention of the NMT model focuses on the source words translated by this phrase. Phrases added in this way are scored with the NMT model, but also with SMT features including phrase-level transl...

This paper proposes a novel method for building a bilingual lexicon through a pivot language by using phrase-based statistical machine translation (SMT). Given two bilingual lexicons between language pairs Lf–Lp and Lp–Le, we assume these lexicons as parallel corpora. Then, we merge the extracted two phrase tables into one phrase table between Lf and Le. Finally, we construct a phrase-based SMT...

We present memory-based learning approaches to shallow parsing and apply these to five tasks: base noun phrase identification, arbitrary base phrase recognition, clause detection, noun phrase parsing and full parsing. We use feature selection techniques and system combination methods for improving the performance of the memory-based learner. Our approach is evaluated on standard data sets and t...

This study discusses whether the comprehensive understanding on Arabic phrases have significant role in process of creative writing development or not. By referring to two basic genres writing, literature covers prose and poetry which their translations are easier if they constructed with models phrases. The construction is commonly used writing. Phrases when translated into other languages var...
