Word frequency cues word order in adults: cross-linguistic evidence
One universal feature of human languages is the division between grammatical functors and content words. From a learnability point of view, functors might provide entry points or anchors into the syntactic structure of utterances due to their high frequency. Despite its potentially universal scope, this hypothesis has not yet been tested on typologically different languages and on populations o...
متن کاملBetter Word Alignments with Supervised ITG Models
This work investigates supervised word alignment methods that exploit inversion transduction grammar (ITG) constraints. We consider maximum margin and conditional likelihood objectives, including the presentation of a new normal form grammar for canonicalizing derivations. Even for non-ITG sentence pairs, we show that it is possible learn ITG alignment models by simple relaxations of structured...
متن کاملThe Distribution of English Language Word Pairs
This short note presents some empirical data on the distribution of word pairs obtained from English text. Particular attention is paid to the distribution of mutual information.
متن کاملCombining Word Reordering Methods on different Linguistic Abstraction Levels for Statistical Machine Translation
We describe a novel approach to combining lexicalized, POS-based and syntactic treebased word reordering in a phrase-based machine translation system. Our results show that each of the presented reordering methods leads to improved translation quality on its own. The strengths however can be combined to achieve further improvements. We present experiments on German-English and GermanFrench tran...
متن کاملDiscriminative Word Alignment with a Function Word Reordering Model
We address the modeling, parameter estimation and search challenges that arise from the introduction of reordering models that capture non-local reordering in alignment modeling. In particular, we introduce several reordering models that utilize (pairs of) function words as contexts for alignment reordering. To address the parameter estimation challenge, we propose to estimate these reordering ...
