A good decoding algorithm is critical to the success of any statistical machine translation system. The decoder's job is to find the translation that is most likely according...

This paper presents a novel online relevant set algorithm for a linearly-scored block sequence translation model. The key component is a new procedure to directly optimize the glob...
In a linguistically-motivated syntax-based translation system, the entire translation process is normally carried out in two steps, translation rule matching and target sentence d...
In this work we present two extensions to the well-known dynamic programming beam search in phrase-based statistical machine translation (SMT), aiming at increased efficiency of ...
