System Combination for Machine Translation of Spoken and Written Language
This paper describes an approach for computing a consensus translation from the outputs of multiple machine translation (MT) systems. The consensus translation is computed by weigh...

Better Alignments = Better Translations?
Automatic word alignment is a key step in training statistical machine translation systems. Despite much recent work on word alignment methods, alignment accuracy increases often ...

Diversify and Combine: Improving Word Alignment for Machine Translation on Low-Resource Languages
We present a novel method to improve word alignment quality and eventually the translation performance by producing and combining complementary word alignments for low-resource la...

Incremental HMM Alignment for MT System Combination
Inspired by the incremental TER alignment, we re-designed the Indirect HMM (IHMM) alignment, which is one of the best hypothesis alignment methods for conventional MT system combi...

Combining many alignments for speech to speech translation
Alignment combination (symmetrization) has been shown to be useful for improving Machine Translation (MT) models. Most existing alignment combination techniques are based on heuri...
