The QMUL system description for IWSLT 2010
نویسندگان
چکیده
The QMUL submission to IWSLT 2010 is a phrase-based statistical MT system. A multi-stack, multi-beam decoder with several features, with weights tuned on the provided development data through Minimum Error Rate Training (MERT) algorithm. This year QMUL participated in ArabicEnglish, French-English and Turkish-English language pairs of the BTEC task. A discriminative reordering model is added as a feature to improve the reordering capabilities of the decoder. In addition, an algorithm is devised to determine the best distortion limit for each hypothesis expansion. Improvements in quality were also gained by different means in different stages of the training and decoding.

The QMUL system description for IWSLT 2008
The QMUL system to the IWSLT 2008 evaluation campaign is a phrase-based statistical MT system implemented in C++. The decoder employs a multi-stack architecture, and uses a beam to manage the search space. We participated in both BTEC Arabic → English and Chinese → English tracks, as well as the PIVOT task. In our first submission to IWSLT, we are particularly interested in seeing how our SMT s...

We describe the machine translation system of the University of Amsterdam, that was used to decode the Chinese→English test sets of the DIALOG task. It consists of typical phrase-based translation, SRILM 5-gram language, lexicalized and distance-based distortion and word penalty models which are manipulated according to a model adaption technique, based on the identification of subdomains of th...

متن کاملUPC-BMIC-VDU system description for the IWSLT 2010: testing several collocation segmentations in a phrase-based SMT system
This paper describes the UPC-BMIC-VMU participation in the IWSLT 2010 evaluation campaign. The SMT system is a standard phrase-based enriched with novel segmentations. These novel segmentations are computed using statistical measures such as Log-likelihood, T-score, Chi-squared, Dice, Mutual Information or Gravity-Counts. The analysis of translation results allows to divide measures into three ...
