Translating the poetry of Apollinaire: Description of a project

This  article  outlines  founding  principles  and  a  guiding  strategy  for  the  translation  of Apollinaire’s  poetry;  many  aspects  of  the  strategy  reflect  the  convictions  and  practices  of Apollinaire’s own poetics. But the article is particularly concerned to argue that translation’s task is the projection of the source text into its future, rather than being an act of recuperat...

Edinburgh system description for the 2005 IWSLT speech translation evaluation

Our participation in the IWSLT 2005 speech translation task is our first effort to work on limited domain speech data. We adapted our statistical machine translation system that performed successfully in previous DARPA competitions on open domain text translations. We participated in the supplied corpora transcription track. We achieved the highest BLEU score in 2 out of 5 language pairs and ha...

The POSTECH's statistical machine translation system for the IWSLT 2010

In this paper, we utilize segmentation alternatives. Our research contribution is a novel estimation method of the translation probabilities used in phrase-based statistical machine translation in order to reflect the trustworthiness of the segmentation. Our system, however, underperforms the baseline.

Experiments in Medical Translation Shared Task at WMT 2014

This paper describes Dublin City University’s (DCU) submission to the WMT 2014 Medical Summary task. We report our results on the test data set in the French to English translation direction. We also report statistics collected from the corpora used to train our translation system. We conducted our experiment on the Moses 1.0 phrase-based translation system framework. We performed a variety of ...
