Neural Machine Translation Advised by Statistical Machine Translation: The Case of Farsi-Spanish Bilingually Low-Resource Scenario
Benyamin Ahmadnia, Parisa Kordjamshidi, Gholamreza Haffari · 2018
In this paper, we propose a sequence-to-sequence NMT model on Farsi-Spanish bilingually low-resource language pair. We apply effective preprocessing steps specific for Farsi language and optimize the model for both translation and transliteration. We also propose a loss function that enhances the word alignment and consequently improves translation quality.
