In this paper we compare and contrast two approaches to Machine Translation (MT): the CMU-UKA Syntax Augmented Machine Translation system (SAMT) and UPC-TALP N-gram-based Statisti...
Given multiple translations of the same source sentence, how to combine them to produce a translation that is better than any single system output? We propose a hierarchical syste...
Data sparseness is one of the factors that degrade statistical machine translation (SMT). Existing work has shown that using morphosyntactic information is an effective solution t...
We define noun phrase translation as a subtask of machine translation. This enables us to build a dedicated noun phrase translation subsystem that improves over the currently bes...
This paper describes an alternative translation model based on a text chunk under the framework of statistical machine translation. The translation model suggested here first per...
