Domain Adaptation of Neural Machine Translation by Lexicon Induction (P19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Neural machine translation (NMT) is sensitive to domain shift, resulting in failure for sentences with large numbers of unknown words and lack of supervision for domain-specific words. |
| Approach: | They propose an unsupervised method which fine-tunes a pre-trained out-of-domain NMT model using a pseudo-in-domain corpus. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves in five domains without using in-domain parallel sentences and up to 2 BLEU over strong back-translation baselines. |
