Papers with BLEU lost
Neural Machine Translation of Text from Non-Native Speakers (N19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) systems are known to degrade when confronted with noisy data. |
| Approach: | They propose to augment training data with sentences containing artificially-introduced grammatical errors to make the system more robust to such errors. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach recovers 1.0 BLEU out of 2.4 BLUE lost due to grammatical errors on a set of Spanish translations of the JFLEG grammar error correction corpus. |
