Guiding Neural Machine Translation with Retrieved Translation Pieces

no code implementations • NAACL 2018 • Jingyi Zhang, Masao Utiyama, Eiichro Sumita, Graham Neubig, Satoshi Nakamura

Specifically, for an input sentence, we use a search engine to retrieve sentence pairs whose source sides are similar with the input sentence, and then collect $n$-grams that are both in the retrieved target sentences and aligned with words that match in the source sentences, which we call "translation pieces".

Compared to traditional statistical machine translation (SMT), neural machine translation (NMT) often sacrifices adequacy for the sake of fluency.

Although more additional corpora are now available for Statistical Machine Translation (SMT), only the ones which belong to the same or similar domains with the original corpus can indeed enhance SMT performance directly.
