ILLC-UvA Adaptation System (Scorpio) at WMT'16 IT-DOMAIN Task
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes Scorpio, the ILLCUvA Adaptation System submitted to the IT-DOMAIN translation task at WMT 2016, which participated with the language pair of English-Dutch. This system consolidates the ideas in our previous work on latent variable models for adaptation, and demonstrates their effectiveness in a competitive setting.

BEER: BEtter Evaluation as Ranking
We present the UvA-ILLC submission of the BEER metric to WMT 14 metrics task. BEER is a sentence level metric that can incorporate a large number of features combined in a linear model. Novel contributions are (1) efficient tuning of a large number of features for maximizing correlation with human system ranking, and (2) novel features that give smoother sentence level scores.
متن کاملILLC-UvA translation system for EMNLP-WMT 2011
In this paper we describe the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (University of Amsterdam) phrase-based statistical machine translation system for Englishto-German translation proposed within the EMNLP-WMT 2011 shared task. The main novelty of the submitted system is a syntaxdriven pre-translation reordering algorithm implemented as source string permutation via transfer of the sourc...
متن کاملBEER 1.1: ILLC UvA submission to metrics and tuning task
We describe the submissions of ILLC UvA to the metrics and tuning tasks on WMT15. Both submissions are based on the BEER evaluation metric originally presented on WMT14 (Stanojević and Sima’an, 2014a). The main changes introduced this year are: (i) extending the learning-to-rank trained sentence level metric to the corpus level (but still decomposable to sentence level), (ii) incorporating synt...

In this paper we give an overview of the ILLC-UvA(Institute for Logic, Language and Computation University of Amsterdam) submission to the 7th International Workshop on Spoken Language Translation evaluation campaign. It outlines the architecture and configuration of the novel feature we are introducing: a syntax-based model for source-side reordering via tree transduction. We have concentrated...
متن کاملData Selection for IT Texts using Paragraph Vector
This paper presents an overview of the system submitted by the University of Hamburg to the IT domain shared translation task as part of the ACL 2016 First Conference of Machine Translation (WMT 2016). We have chosen data selection as a domain adaptation method. The filtering of the general domain data makes use of paragraph vectors as a novel approach for scoring the sentences. Experiments wer...
