Like Chalk and Cheese? On the Effects of Translationese in MT Training

no code implementations MTSummit 2021 Samuel Larkin, Michel Simard, Rebecca Knowles

We revisit the topic of translation direction in the data used for training neural machine translation systems and focusing on a real-world scenario with known translation direction and imbalances in translation direction: the Canadian Hansard.

Measuring sentence parallelism using Mahalanobis distances: The NRC unsupervised submissions to the WMT18 Parallel Corpus Filtering shared task

no code implementations WS 2018 Patrick Littell, Samuel Larkin, Darlene Stewart, Michel Simard, Cyril Goutte, Chi-kiu Lo

The WMT18 shared task on parallel corpus filtering (Koehn et al., 2018b) challenged teams to score sentence pairs from a large high-recall, low-precision web-scraped parallel corpus (Koehn et al., 2018a).

Cost Weighting for Neural Machine Translation Domain Adaptation

no code implementations WS 2017 Boxing Chen, Colin Cherry, George Foster, Samuel Larkin

We compare cost weighting to two traditional domain adaptation techniques developed for statistical machine translation: data selection and sub-corpus weighting.
