Document-Level Machine Translation Evaluation Metrics Enhanced with Simplified Lexical Chain
2015
Document-level Machine Translation MT has been drawing more and more attention due to its potential of resolving sentence-level ambiguities and inconsistencies with the benefit of wide-range context. However, the lack of simple yet effective evaluation metrics largely impedes the development of such document-level MT systems. This paper proposes to improve traditional MT evaluation metrics by simplified lexical chain, modeling document-level phenomena from the perspectives of text cohesion. Experiments show the effectiveness of such method on evaluating document-level translation quality and its potential of integrating with traditional MT evaluation metrics to achieve higher correlation with human judgments.
