Techniques are disclosed for training and/or utilizing an alignments and language model ('ALM') in automatically determining an ALM score corresponding with natural language text generated using a natural language generation model. The natural language text generated using the natural language generation model can be based on a set of structured data. Additionally or alternatively, the ALM can include a fluency model portion and a semantics model portion. The fluency model portion can be used in determining the fluency and/or grammar of the text. The semantics model portion be used in evaluating the content of the natural language text with respect to the content of the structured data.

Automatic evaluation of natural language text generated based on structured data

Techniques are disclosed for training and/or utilizing an automatic post-editing model in correcting translation error(s) introduced by a neural machine translation model. The automatic post-editing model can be trained using automatically generated training instances. A training instance is automatically generated by processing text in a first language using a neural machine translation model to generate text in a second language. The text in the second language is processed using a neural machine translation model to generate training text in the first language. A training instance can include the text in the first language as well as the training text in the first language.
