Large-scale Word Alignment Using Soft Dependency Cohesion Constraints
Dependency cohesion refers to the observation that phrases dominated by disjoint dependency subtrees in the source language generally do not overlap in the target language. It has been verified to be a useful constraint for word alignment. However, previous work either treats this as a hard constraint or uses it as a feature in discriminative models, which is ineffective for large-scale tasks. ...
متن کاملHMM Word-to-Phrase Alignment with Dependency Constraints
In this paper, we extend the HMM wordto-phrase alignment model with syntactic dependency constraints. The syntactic dependencies between multiple words in one language are introduced into the model in a bid to produce coherent alignments. Our experimental results on a variety of Chinese–English data show that our syntactically constrained model can lead to as much as a 3.24% relative improvemen...
متن کاملWord Alignment with Cohesion Constraint
We present a syntax-based constraint for word alignment, known as the cohesion constraint. It requires disjoint English phrases to be mapped to non-overlapping intervals in the French sentence. We evaluate the utility of this constraint in two different algorithms. The results show that it can provide a significant improvement in alignment quality.
متن کاملSoft Syntactic Constraints for Word Alignment through Discriminative Training
Word alignment methods can gain valuable guidance by ensuring that their alignments maintain cohesion with respect to the phrases specified by a monolingual dependency tree. However, this hard constraint can also rule out correct alignments, and its utility decreases as alignment models become more complex. We use a publicly available structured output SVM to create a max-margin syntactic align...
متن کاملDependency Forest based Word Alignment
A hierarchical word alignment model that searches for k-best partial alignments on target constituent 1-best parse trees has been shown to outperform previous models. However, relying solely on 1-best parses trees might hinder the search for good alignments because 1-best trees are not necessarily the best for word alignment tasks in practice. This paper introduces a dependency forest based wor...
