Computer Assisted Translation with Neural Quality Estimation and Automatic Post-Editing (2020.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Using neural machine translation to approximate human parity is difficult due to the lack of parallel training corpora. |
| Approach: | They propose an end-to-end deep learning framework for quality estimation and automatic post-editing of machine translation output. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework achieves state-of-the-art performance on the English–German dataset and human translators can significantly expedite their post-editing processing with the model. |
Lattice Transformer for Speech Translation (P19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent advances in sequence modeling have highlighted the strengths of the transformer architecture. |
| Approach: | They propose a general lattice transformer for speech translation where the input is the output of the automatic speech recognition (ASR) they propose 'controllable' lattica attention mechanism to consume latent representations. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms baseline and lattice LSTM on the Chinese-English translation task. |
Long-Short Term Masking Transformer: A Simple but Effective Baseline for Document-level Neural Machine Translation (2020.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent advances in deep learning have led to significant improvement of document-level neural machine translation (NMT). |
| Approach: | They propose a long-short term masking self-attention on top of the standard transformer to capture the long-range dependence and reduce the propagation of errors. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model captures the long-range dependence and reduces errors on two publicly available document-level datasets. |
