A method to restrict the blow-up of hypotheses of a non-disambiguated shallow machine translation system
Jernej Vičič, Petr Homola, Vladislav Kuboň · 2009
The article presents two automatic methods that reduce the complexity of the ambiguous space introduced by the omission of the part of speech tagger from the architecture of a shallow machine translation system. The methods were implemented in a fully functional translation system for related languages. The language pair chosen for the experiments was Slovenian-Serbian as these languages are highly inflectional with morphologically ambiguous forms. The empirical evaluations show an improvement over the original system.
