Statistical machine translation

A Lopez - ACM Computing Surveys (CSUR), 2008 - dl.acm.org
Statistical machine translation (SMT) treats the translation of natural language as a machine
learning problem. By examining many samples of human-produced translation, SMT …

A systematic comparison of various statistical alignment models

FJ Och, H Ney - Computational linguistics, 2003 - direct.mit.edu
We present and compare various methods for computing word alignments using statistical or
heuristic models. We consider the five alignment models presented in Brown, Della Pietra …

The alignment template approach to statistical machine translation

FJ Och, H Ney - Computational linguistics, 2004 - direct.mit.edu
A phrase-based statistical machine translation approach—the alignment template approach—
is described. This translation approach allows for general many-to-many relations between …

[PDF][PDF] An Evaluation Tool for Machine Translation: Fast Evaluation for MT Research.

S Nießen, FJ Och, G Leusch, H Ney - LREC, 2000 - www-i6.informatik.rwth-aachen.de
In this paper we present a tool for the evaluation of translation quality. First, the typical
requirements of such a tool in the framework of machine translation (MT) research are …

Word reordering and a dynamic programming beam search algorithm for statistical machine translation

C Tillmann, H Ney - Computational linguistics, 2003 - direct.mit.edu
In this article, we describe an efficient beam search algorithm for statistical machine
translation based on dynamic programming (DP). The search algorithm uses the translation …

A survey of current paradigms in machine translation

BJ Dorr, PW Jordan, JW Benoit - Advances in computers, 1999 - Elsevier
This paper is a survey of the current machine translation research in the US, Europe and
Japan. A short history of machine translation is presented first, followed by an overview of …

[PDF][PDF] Statistical machine translation: From single word models to alignment templates

FJ Och - 2003 - d-nb.info
In this work, new approaches for machine translation using statistical methods are
described. In addition to the standard source-channel approach to statistical machine …

Statistical machine translation with scarce resources using morpho-syntactic information

S Nießen, H Ney - Computational linguistics, 2004 - direct.mit.edu
In statistical machine translation, correspondences between the words in the source and the
target language are learned from parallel corpora, and often little or no linguistic knowledge …
