Abstract

Training and translation using trees and/or subtrees as parts of the rules. A target language is word aligned with a source language, and at least one of the languages is parsed into trees. The trees are used for training, by aligning conversion steps, forming a manual set of information representing the conversion steps and then learning rules from that reduced set. The rules include subtrees as parts thereof, and are used for decoding, along with an n-gram language model and a syntax based language mode.
