In this paper we shortly summarize the main paradigms of machine translation. We describe the principles of successful phrase-based statistical approach and show some recent improvements using hybridization towards both example-based and rule-based directions. We also describe the experiments in this topic English-to-Czech translation that carried out at our department, we comment the weak poin...

I present an automatic post-editing approach that combines translation systems which produce syntactic trees as output. The nodes in the generation tree and targetside SCFG tree are aligned and form the basis for computing structural similarity. Structural similarity computation aligns subtrees and based on this alignment, subtrees are substituted to create more accurate translations. Two diffe...

The usual concern when opting for a rule-based or a hybrid machine translation (MT) system is how much effort is required to adapt the system to a different language pair or a new domain. In this paper, we describe a way of adapting an existing hybrid MT system to a new language pair, and show that such a system can outperform a standard phrase-based statistical machine translation system with ...

Abstract Background and Aim: One of the major problems with resin composite restorations is the weakness of bonding between the new and aged composites. Since appropriate micromechanical retention is necessary for the repair of aged resin composite restorations, the level of surface roughness after sandblasting can be influential in this regard. Considering the diverse composition of avail...

Living in a world where environment protection and energy conservation are the first worries, the development of hybrid vehicle seems to be an accelerated pace. There for, recent efforts are directed toward developing an improved propulsion system. One of the most valuable solutions is the starter alternators [19]. This paper presents an advanced development of a switched reluctance starter-alt...

In this paper, the concept of a new 5-axis hybrid machine tool is proposed. The machine is a tool being with both parallel and serial structures, which is based on a novel 2-DOF parallel platform and serial orientations. The machine tool has advantages in terms of high stiffness, high dexterity, high speed, and being capable of long components manufacturing. The kinematics characteristics, such...

This paper describes the UdS-Sant English–German Hybrid Machine Translation (MT) system submitted to the Translation Task organized in the Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation (WMT) 2015. Our proposed hybrid system brings improvements over the baseline system by incorporating additional knowledge such as extracted bilingual named entities and bilingual phrase pairs induced from example-b...

Two novel structures of permanent magnet (PM) machine, namely a hybrid excitation flux modulation machine (HEFMM) and a variable flux memory machine (VFMM), which have excellent field-weakening capability, are presented in this paper. The HEFMM incorporates the advantages of parallel hybrid excitation structure and flux modulation structure, so as to increase the torque density as well as incre...

Corpus based approaches to machine translation namely Example based machine translation and Statistical machine translation have received wide focus in the recent years. Hybrid approaches combining the two further improved the performance. Indian language machine translation has mostly focussed on rule based machine translation. We propose a hybrid approach to Example based machine translation ...
