Short Messaging Service (SMS) texts behave quite differently from normal written texts and have some very special phenomena. To translate SMS texts, traditional approaches model s...
Hierarchical phrase-based translation model has been proven to be a simple and powerful machine translation model. However, due to the computational complexity constraints, the ext...
In this paper, we present a novel approach to enhance hierarchical phrase-based machine translation systems with linguistically motivated syntactic features. Rather than directly ...
Statistical machine translation is often faced with the problem of combining training data from many diverse sources into a single translation model which then has to translate se...

In this work we present two extensions to the well-known dynamic programming beam search in phrase-based statistical machine translation (SMT), aiming at increased efficiency of ...
