Estimation of statistical translation models based on mutual information for ad hoc information retrieval
As a principled approach to capturing semantic relations of words in information retrieval, statistical translation models have been shown to outperform simple document language m...

An efficient method for using machine translation technologies in cross-language patent search
Topics in prior-art patent search are typically full patent applications and relevant items are patents often taken from sources in different languages. Cross language patent retr...

Decomposability of Translation Metrics for Improved Evaluation and Efficient Algorithms
BLEU is the de facto standard for evaluation and development of statistical machine translation systems. We describe three real-world situations involving comparisons between diff...

Noise-tolerant learning, the parity problem, and the statistical query model
We describe a slightly subexponential time algorithm for learning parity functions in the presence of random classification noise, a problem closely related to several cryptograph...
