Abstract. This paper describes an example-based machine translation (EBMT) method based on tree-string correspondence (TSC) and statistical generation. In this method, the translat...
We present a machine translation framework that can incorporate arbitrary features of both input and output sentences. The core of the approach is a novel decoder based on lattice...
Minimum Error Rate Training (MERT) is an effective means to estimate the feature function weights of a linear model such that an automated evaluation criterion for measuring syste...
