[PDF][PDF] Learning linear ordering problems for better translation

R Tromble, J Eisner - Proceedings of the 2009 conference on …, 2009 - aclanthology.org
We apply machine learning to the Linear Ordering Problem in order to learn sentence-
specific reordering models for machine translation. We demonstrate that even when these …

[PDF][PDF] Chunk-level reordering of source language sentences with automatically learned rules for statistical machine translation

Y Zhang, R Zens, H Ney - … of SSST, NAACL-HLT 2007/AMTA …, 2007 - aclanthology.org
In this paper, we describe a sourceside reordering method based on syntactic chunks for
phrase-based statistical machine translation. First, we shallow parse the source language …

A survey of word reordering in statistical machine translation: Computational models and language phenomena

A Bisazza, M Federico - Computational linguistics, 2016 - direct.mit.edu
Word reordering is one of the most difficult aspects of statistical machine translation (SMT),
and an important factor of its quality and efficiency. Despite the vast amount of research …

Improving statistical MT by coupling reordering and decoding

JM Crego, JB Marino - Machine translation, 2006 - Springer
In this paper we describe an elegant and efficient approach to coupling reordering and
decoding in statistical machine translation, where the n-gram translation model is also …

[PDF][PDF] A POS-based model for long-range reorderings in SMT

J Niehues, M Kolss - Proceedings of the Fourth Workshop on …, 2009 - aclanthology.org
In this paper we describe a new approach to model long-range word reorderings in
statistical machine translation (SMT). Until now, most SMT approaches are only able to …

From feature to paradigm: deep learning in machine translation

MR Costa-Jussà - Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research, 2018 - jair.org
In the last years, deep learning algorithms have highly revolutionized several areas
including speech, image and natural language processing. The specific field of Machine …

Translation as weighted deduction

A Lopez - Proceedings of the 12th Conference of the European …, 2009 - research.ed.ac.uk
We present a unified view of many translation algorithms that synthesizes work on deductive
parsing, semiring parsing, and efficient approximate search algorithms. This gives rise to …

Syntax-based reordering for statistical machine translation

M Khalilov, JAR Fonollosa - Computer speech & language, 2011 - Elsevier
In this paper, we develop an approach called syntax-based reordering (SBR) to handling the
fundamental problem of word ordering for statistical machine translation (SMT). We propose …

[PDF][PDF] Using shallow syntax information to improve word alignment and reordering for SMT

JM Crego, N Habash - Proceedings of the Third Workshop on …, 2008 - aclanthology.org
We describe two methods to improve SMT accuracy using shallow syntax information. First,
we use chunks to refine the set of word alignments typically used as a starting point in SMT …

[PDF][PDF] Tree kernel-based SVM with structured syntactic knowledge for BTG-based phrase reordering

M Zhang, H Li - Proceedings of the 2009 conference on empirical …, 2009 - aclanthology.org
Structured syntactic knowledge is important for phrase reordering. This paper proposes
using convolution tree kernel over source parse tree to model structured syntactic …
