KyotoEBMT †

Example-Based Machine Translation †

The KyotoEBMT translation framework takes a tree-to-tree approach, employing syntactic dependency analysis for both source and target languages in an attempt to preserve non-local structure. The effectiveness of our system is maximized with online example matching and a flexible decoder. Evaluation demonstrates BLEU scores competitive with state-of-the-art SMT systems such as Moses. The code is available below as open-source.
