Morphtagger: HMM-based Arabic segmentation for statistical machine translation
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we investigate different methodologies of Arabic segmentation for statistical machine translation by comparing a rule-based segmenter to different statistically-based segmenters. We also present a new method for segmentation that serves the need for a real-time translation system without impairing the translation accuracy.

Phrasal Segmentation Models for Statistical Machine Translation
Phrasal segmentation models define a mapping from the words of a sentence to sequences of translatable phrases. We discuss the estimation of these models from large quantities of monolingual training text and describe their realization as weighted finite state transducers for incorporation into phrase-based statistical machine translation systems. Results are reported on the NIST Arabic-English...
متن کاملArabic-Segmentation Combination Strategies for Statistical Machine Translation
Arabic segmentation was already applied successfully for the task of statistical machine translation (SMT). Yet, there is no consistent comparison of the effect of different techniques and methods over the final translation quality. In this work, we use existing tools and further re-implement and develop new methods for segmentation. We compare the resulting SMT systems based on the different s...
متن کاملSegmentation for English-to-Arabic Statistical Machine Translation
In this paper, we report on a set of initial results for English-to-Arabic Statistical Machine Translation (SMT). We show that morphological decomposition of the Arabic source is beneficial, especially for smaller-size corpora, and investigate different recombination techniques. We also report on the use of Factored Translation Models for Englishto-Arabic translation.
متن کاملLIG approach for IWSLT09 : using multiple morphological segmenters for spoken language translation of Arabic
This paper describes the LIG experiments in the context of IWSLT09 evaluation (Arabic to English Statistical Machine Translation task). Arabic is a morphologically rich language, and recent experimentations in our laboratory have shown that the performance of Arabic to English SMT systems varies greatly according to the Arabic morphological segmenters applied. Based on this observation, we prop...
متن کاملUrdu to Punjabi Machine Translation: An Incremental Training Approach
The statistical machine translation approach is highly popular in automatic translation research area and promising approach to yield good accuracy. Efforts have been made to develop Urdu to Punjabi statistical machine translation system. The system is based on an incremental training approach to train the statistical model. In place of the parallel sentences corpus has manually mapped phrases ...
