Portability is an important issue to the viability of a domainspecific translation approach. This paper describes an English to Chinese translation system for flight-domain queries, utilizing an interlingua translation framework that has been successfully applied in the weather domain. Portability of various components is tested, and new technologies to handle parse ambiguities and illformed in...

Nowadays, the rapid development of natural language processing has brought great progress for area machine translation. Various deep neural network-based translation approaches have been more and general. However, there still lacks effective automatic error detection results. To bridge such gap, this paper proposes an method results via learning. The training data is synthesized using generativ...

The aim of this paper is to investigate how much the effectiveness of a Question Answering (QA) system was affected by the performance of Machine Translation (MT) based question translation. Nearly 200 questions were selected from TREC QA tracks and ran through a question answering system. It was able to answer 42.6% of the questions correctly in a monolingual run. These questions were then tra...

The name of Yehoshua Bar Hillel is known to every student of machine translation. The late philosopher richly deserves this recognition: he had been a central figure in the early development of the field and contributed what should be considered the first set of sober assessments for MT at the time of the widespread gung-ho attitude to its prospects. The fame is probably due to the correctness ...

In this paper, we present Back-to-Back, a novel real time hand gesture interface for 3D interaction based on double cameras. Back-to-Back dexterously makes use of the geometric complement of two back-to-back cameras. Held in hand, Backto-Back could deduce hand’s 3D motion in real time. The basic idea is to extract good corner points from the image sequences captured by two cameras separately an...
