For the proper treatment of long sentences in a sentence pattern-based English-Korean MT system.

Yoon‐Hyung Roh Munpyo Hong Sung-Kwon Choi Kiyoung Lee Sangkyu Park

This paper describes a sentence pattern-based English-Korean machine translation system backed up by a rule-based module as a solution to the translation of long sentences. A rule-based English-Korean MT system typically suffers from low translation accuracy for long sentences due to poor parsing performance. In the proposed method we only use chunking information on the phrase-level of the parse result (i.e. NP, PP, and AP). By applying a sentence pattern directly to a chunking result, the high performance of analysis and a good quality of translation are expected. The parsing efficiency problem in the traditional RBMT approach is resolved by sentence partitioning, which is generally assumed to have many problems. However, we will show that the sentence partitioning has little side effect, if any, in our approach, because we use only the chunking results for the transfer. The coverage problem of a pattern-based method is overcome by applying sentence pattern matching recursively to the sub-sentences of the input sentence, in case there is no exact matching pattern to the input sentence.

Hybrid approaches to improvement of translation quality in Web-based English-Korean machine translation

Sung-Kwon Choi Hanmin Jung Chul-Min Sim Taewan Kim Dong-In Park

The previous English-Korean MT system that was the transfer-based MT system and applied to only written text enumerated a following brief list of the problems that had not seemed to be easy to solve in the near future: 1) processing of non-continuous idiomatic expressions 2) reduction of too many ambiguities in English syntactic analysis 3) robust processing for failed or illformed sentences 4) selecting correct word correspondence between several alternatives 5) generation of Korean sentence style. The problems can be considered as factors that have influence on the translation quality of machine translation system. This paper describes the symbolic and statistical hybrid approaches to solutions of problems of the previous English-to-Korean machine translation system in terms of the improvement of translation quality. The solutions are now successfully applied to the web-based English-Korean machine translation system "FromTo/EK" which has been developed from 1997.

English-to-Korean Web Translator: "FromTo/Web-EK"

Sung-Kwon Choi Taewan Kim Sanghwa Yuh Hanmin Jung Chul-Min Sim

The previous English-Korean MT system that have been developed in Korea have dealt with only written text as translation object. Most of them enumerated a following list of the problems that had not seemed to be easy to solve in the near future : 1) processing of non-continuous idiomatic expressions 2) reduction of too many POS or structural ambiguities 3) robust processing for long sentence and parsing failure 4) selecting correct word correspondence between several alternatives. The problems can be considered as important factors that have influence on the translation quality of machine translation system. This paper describes not only the solutions of problems of the previous English-to-Korean machine translation systems but also the HTML tags management between two structurally different languages, English and Korean. Through the solutions we translate successfully English web documents into Korean one in the English-to-Korean web translator FromTo/Web-EK which has been developed from 1997.
