Study Notes
Fuzzy Matches
- Similar but not identical sentence matches are referred to as fuzzy matches.
- These matches are assessed on a scale ranging from 0% to 99% based on their similarity.
Machine Translation Approaches
- Rule-based Machine Translation (RBMT) focuses on linguistic rules and grammar.
- Statistics-based Machine Translation (SMT) relies on statistical models and data analysis.
Features of Machine Translation
- Sentential features in machine translation include tense, aspect, and modality.
- Analysis in RBMT prioritizes knowledge of the source language (SL) using generalizations about part-of-speech combinations.
Transfer Stage in RBMT
- A bilingual dictionary is used in the transfer stage to link SL structures with corresponding target language (TL) structures.
Challenges in SMT
- Data sparsity presents a major hurdle for SMT, particularly with rare or unseen words in the training data.
