Extant Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) systems are very complex softwares, which embed multiple layers of heuristics and embark very large numbers of numerical parameters. A...
This paper describes the right-to-left decoding method, which translates an input string by generating in right-to-left direction. In addition, presented is the bidirectional deco...
Abstract--Until quite recently, extending Phrase-based Statistical Machine Translation (PBSMT) with syntactic knowledge caused system performance to deteriorate. The most recent su...
This paper investigates the effect of direction in phrase-based statistial machine translation decoding. We compare a typical phrase-based machine translation decoder using a left...
Factored Statistical Machine Translation extends the Phrase Based SMT model by allowing each word to be a vector of factors. Experiments have shown effectiveness of many factors, ...
