Exploiting Multimodal Reinforcement Learning for Simultaneous Machine Translation (2021.eacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies on multimodality in simultaneous machine translation have highlighted the challenges for the agent to maintain good translation quality while learning an optimal translation path. |
| Approach: | They propose a multimodal approach to simultaneous machine translation using reinforcement learning with strategies to integrate visual and textual information in both the agent and the environment. |
| Outcome: | The proposed multimodal approach improves translation quality while keeping latency low while providing visual cues. |
