This paper reports the latest performance of components and features of a project named Corpus-Centered Computation (C3), which targets a translation technology suitable for spoken language translation. C3 places corpora at the center of the technology. Translation knowledge is extracted from corpora by both EBMT and SMT methods, translation quality is gauged by referring to corpora, the best translation among multiple-engine outputs is selected based on corpora and the corpora themselves are paraphrased or filtered by automated processes.
