Alignment-based sense selection in METEOR and the RATATOUILLE recipe
Benjamin Marie, Marianna Apidianaki · 2015
This paper describes Meteor-WSD and RATATOUILLE, the LIMSI submissions to the WMT15 metrics shared task.Meteor-WSD extends synonym mapping to languages other than English based on alignments and gives credit to semantically adequate translations in context.We show that context-sensitive synonym selection increases the correlation of the Meteor metric with human judgments of translation quality on the WMT14 data.RATATOUILLE combines Meteor-WSD with nine other metrics for evaluation and outperforms the best metric (BEER) involved in its computation.
