Ongoing Study for Enhancing Chinese-Spanish Translation with Morphology Strategies
Marta R. Costa‐jussà · 2015
Chinese and Spanish have different morphology structures, which poses a big challenge for translating between this pair of languages.In this paper, we analyze several strategies to better generalize from the Chinese non-morphology-based language to the Spanish rich morphologybased language.Strategies use a first-step of Spanish morphology-based simplifications and a second-step of fullform generation.The latter can be done using a translation system or classification methods.Finally, both steps are combined either by concatenation in cascade or integration using a factored-based style.Ongoing experiments (based on the United Nations corpus) and their results are described.
