This paper revisits the pivot language approach for machine translation. First, we investigate three different methods for pivot translation. Then we employ a hybrid method combin...
Abstract. In statistical machine translation, phrase-based translation (PBT) models lead to a significantly better translation quality over single-word-based (SWB) models. PBT mode...
We propose several techniques for improving statistical machine translation between closely-related languages with scarce resources. We use character-level translation trained on ...
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...

A number of machine translation systems based on the learning algorithms are presented. These methods acquire translation rules from pairs of similar sentences in a bilingual text...
