Translationese as a Language in "Multilingual" NMT

Parker Riley, Isaac Caswell, Markus Freitag +1

Machine translation has an undesirable propensity to produce "translationese" artifacts, which can lead to higher BLEU scores while being liked less by human raters. Motivated by t…

Investigating Multilingual NMT Representations at Scale

Sneha Reddy Kudugunta, Ankur Bapna, Isaac Caswell +2

Multilingual Neural Machine Translation (NMT) models have yielded large empirical success in transfer learning settings. However, these black-box representations are poorly underst…

Learning a Multi-Domain Curriculum for Neural Machine Translation

Wei Wang, Ye Tian, Jiquan Ngiam +3

Most data selection research in machine translation focuses on improving a single domain. We perform data selection for multiple domains at once. This is achieved by carefully intr…

Tagged Back-Translation

Isaac Caswell, Ciprian Chelba, David Grangier

Recent work in Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has shown significant quality gains from noised-beam decoding during back-translation, a method to generate synthetic parallel data.…

Dynamically Composing Domain-Data Selection with Clean-Data Selection by "Co-Curricular Learning" for Neural Machine Translation

Wei Wang, Isaac Caswell, Ciprian Chelba

Noise and domain are important aspects of data quality for neural machine translation. Existing research focus separately on domain-data selection, clean-data selection, or their s…

APE at Scale and its Implications on MT Evaluation Biases

Markus Freitag, Isaac Caswell, Scott Roy

In this work, we train an Automatic Post-Editing (APE) model and use it to reveal biases in standard Machine Translation (MT) evaluation procedures. The goal of our APE model is to…
