Often, Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) between English and Korean suffers from null alignment. Previous studies have attempted to resolve this problem by removing unnecessar...
Long distance word reordering is a major challenge in statistical machine translation research. Previous work has shown using source syntactic trees is an effective way to tackle ...
We propose Bilingual Tree Kernels (BTKs) to capture the structural similarities across a pair of syntactic translational equivalences and apply BTKs to sub-tree alignment along wi...
The dominant practice of statistical machine translation (SMT) uses the same Chinese word segmentation specification in both alignment and translation rule induction steps in buil...

In this paper we will present a maximum entropy filter for the translation rules of a statistical machine translation system based on tree transducers. This filter can be success...
