Bracketing Transduction Grammar (BTG) is a natural choice for effective integration of desired linguistic knowledge into statistical machine translation (SMT). In this paper, we p...
We describe an approach to improve Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) performance using multi-lingual, parallel, sentence-aligned corpora in several bridge languages. Our appro...
Parallel data in the domain of interest is the key resource when training a statistical machine translation (SMT) system for a specific purpose. Since ad-hoc manual translation c...

Named Entity recognition (NER) is an important part of many natural language processing tasks. Current approaches often employ machine learning techniques and require supervised d...
We describe a method for the fully automatic learning of hierarchical finite state translation models. The input to the method is transcribed speech utterances and their correspon...
