Syntactic Skeleton-Based Translation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we propose an approach to modeling syntactically-motivated skeletal structure of source sentence for machine translation. This model allows for application of high-level syntactic transfer rules and low-level non-syntactic rules. It thus involves fully syntactic, non-syntactic, and partially syntactic derivations via a single grammar and decoding paradigm. On large-scale Chinese-English and EnglishChinese translation tasks, we obtain an average improvement of +0.9 BLEU across the newswire and web genres.

Topicalization in English Translation of the Holy Quran: A Comparative Study
The Holy Quran, as an Arabic masterpiece, comprises great domains of syntactical, phonological, and semantic literary patterns. These patterns work as the shackle of translators. This study examined the application of the most common shift strategies in Catford‟s linguistic model for translation of topicalization in chapter 29 of the Holy Quran. The topicalized cases were compared to their coun...
متن کاملA Syntactic Skeleton for Statistical Machine Translation
We present a method for improving statistical machine translation performance by using linguistically motivated syntactic information. Our algorithm recursively decomposes source language sentences into syntactically simpler and shorter chunks, and recomposes their translation to form target language sentences. This improves both the word order and lexical selection of the translation. We repor...

Automatic identification of words with semantic roles (such as Agent, Patient, Source, etc.) in sentences and attaching correct semantic roles to them, may lead to improvement in many natural language processing tasks including information extraction, question answering, text summarization and machine translation. Semantic role labeling systems usually take advantage of syntactic parsing and th...
متن کاملThe Quality Assessment of the Persian Translation of “The Graveyard” Based on House's Translation Quality Assessment Model
The notion of Translation Quality Assessment has been the object of many studies. TQA as the compre- hensive treatment of translation evaluation, focuses on the relationship between the source text and target text and also emphasizes that translation is a linguistic operation. To accomplish this research, House‟s model of TQA was chosen as the framework for the investigation ...
متن کاملA 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...
