We present a simple yet powerful hierarchical search algorithm for automatic word alignment. Our algorithm induces a forest of alignments from which we can efficiently extract a r...
In this paper, we propose a hierarchical phrase alignment method that aims to acquire translation knowledge. Previous methods utilize the correspondence of sub-trees between bilin...
This work is concerned with the space of alignments searched by word alignment systems. We focus on situations where word re-ordering is limited by syntax. We present two new alig...
This paper considers a scenario when we are given almost perfect knowledge about bilingual terminology in terms of a test corpus in Statistical Machine Translation (SMT). When the...
