Durgar El-Kahlout · 2013
This paper describes T ¨ UB˙˙ statistical machine translation (SMT) sys- tems submitted to the Eighth Work- shop on Statistical Machine Transla- tion (WMT) shared translation task for German-English language pair in both di- rections. We implement phrase-based SMT systems with standard parameters. We present the results of using a big tun- ing data and the effect of averaging tun- ing weights of different seeds. Addition- ally, we performed a linguistically moti- vated compound splitting in the German- to-English SMT system.
