A Hybrid Approach to Interactive Machine Translation - Integrating Rule-based, Corpus-based, and Example-basedMethod

چکیده
W i t h rapid development of the Internet, demand is rising high for a personal tool to support wr i t ing foreign language document such as e-mail. However, translation result of an automatic MT system is often not satisfactory for this purpose and requires post-editing. In addit ion, a purely rule-based system does not necessarily provide a satisfactory result for specific expressions because of lack of corresponding rules, nor purely example-based system for expressions not covered by examples. A hybr id approach is worthwhile to pursuit, where automatic and interactive approaches, as well as rule-oriented and data-oriented approaches are integrated. In this article, we propose a hybrid interactive machine translation method that combines rule-based, corpus-based and example-based approach wi th an interactive man-machine interface. We show that the previously proposed rule-based model can be natural ly integrated wi th different translation paradigms. The interactive operations, previously introduced and shown to be useful for disambiguation in the rule-based transfer, are shown to be also useful to control covering by and selection of the matching examples, two major decisions in the example-based translat ion method. We also mention an online learning scheme of translation pairs from the user interaction.

A Hybrid Machine Translation System Based on a Monotone Decoder
In this paper, a hybrid Machine Translation (MT) system is proposed by combining the result of a rule-based machine translation (RBMT) system with a statistical approach. The RBMT uses a set of linguistic rules for translation, which leads to better translation results in terms of word ordering and syntactic structure. On the other hand, SMT works better in lexical choice. Therefore, in our sys...

متن کاملA Machine Learning Approach to Hypotheses Selection of Greedy Decoding for SMT
This paper proposes a method for integrating example-based and rule-based machine translation systems with statistical methods. It extends a greedy decoder for statistical machine translation (SMT), which searches for an optimal translation by using SMT models starting from a decoder seed, i.e., the source language input paired with an initial translation hypothesis. In order to reduce local op...

متن کاملThe SLE example-based translation system
In this paper, we describe a hybrid approach to Machine Translation that exploits a corpus of example translations augmented with resources and techniques from rule-based MT. Our main motivation is to achieve reasonable accuracy for some subdomains with good time and space characteristics. Our architecture is relatively deterministic and therefore quite modest in its consumption of computationa...
