When training the parameters for a natural language system, one would prefer to minimize 1-best loss (error) on an evaluation set. Since the error surface for many natural languag...
This paper presents a method for improving phrase-based Statistical Machine Translation systems by enriching the original translation model with information derived from a multilin...
— In this paper we present a rule-based formalism for the representation, acquisition, and application of translation knowledge. The formalism is being used successfully in a Jap...
The SignSpeak project will be the first step to approach sign language recognition and translation at a scientific level already reached in similar research fields such as automat...

In this paper, we investigate the use of bilingual parsing on parallel corpora to better estimate the rule parameters in a formal syntax-based machine translation system, which ar...
