Researchers from National Institute of Information and Communications Technology Detail New Studies and Findings in the Area of Machine Translation

摘要

"Lattice decoding in statistical machine translation (SMT) is useful in speech translation and in the ntranslation of German because it can handle input ambiguities such as speech recognition ambiguities nand German word segmentation ambiguities. In this paper, we show that lattice decoding is also useful nfor handling input variations. ''Input variations'' refers to the differences in input texts with the same nmeaning," scientists in Kyoto, Japan report.
