Improved Models of Distortion Cost for Statistical Machine Translation
The distortion cost function used in Mosesstyle machine translation systems has two flaws. First, it does not estimate the future cost of known required moves, thus increasing sea...

Variational Decoding for Statistical Machine Translation
Statistical models in machine translation exhibit spurious ambiguity. That is, the probability of an output string is split among many distinct derivations (e.g., trees or segment...

Phrase-Based Statistical Machine Translation as a Traveling Salesman Problem
An efficient decoding algorithm is a crucial element of any statistical machine translation system. Some researchers have noted certain similarities between SMT decoding and the f...

Sub-Sentence Division for Tree-Based Machine Translation
Tree-based statistical machine translation models have made significant progress in recent years, especially when replacing 1-best trees with packed forests. However, as the parsi...
