#1 Improved chunk-level reordering for statistical machine translation [PDF] [Copy] [Kimi1]

Authors: Yuqi Zhang ; Richard Zens ; Hermann Ney

Inspired by previous chunk-level reordering approaches to statistical machine translation, this paper presents two methods to improve the reordering at the chunk level. By introducing a new lattice weighting factor and by reordering the training source data, an improvement is reported on TER and BLEU. Compared to the previous chunklevel reordering approach, the BLEU score improves 1.4% absolutely. The translation results are reported on IWSLT Chinese-English task.
