Lexical ambiguity can cause critical failure in conversational spoken language translation (CSLT) systems due to the wrong sense being presented in the target language. In this paper, we present a framework for improving translation of ambiguous source words that (a) constrains statistical machine translation (SMT) decoding with phrase pair clusters to select a desired sense for translation; (b...

The experiment for this purpose was conducted on a group of Iranian undergraduate students comprising of their exposure to a targeted sy...

The goal of the PANGLOSS projecd is to develop a system which will, from the very beginning, produce highquality translations of unconstrained text. This can only be attained currently by keeping the human in the translation loop, in our case via a software module called the A U O ~ R . The main measure of progress in the development of the Pangloss system will therefore be the gradual decrease...
