Abstract:
|
In this paper, we present a
Japanese - English machine translation
system that combines rule-based
and statistical translation. Our system
is unique in that all of its components
are freely available as open source
software. We describe the development
of the rule-based translation engine
including transfer rule acquisition
from an open bilingual dictionary.
We also show how translations from
both translation engines are combined
through a simple ranking mechanism
and compare their outputs. |
