Machine Translation Evaluation with Neural Networks
Francisco Guzmán, Shafiq R. Joty, Lluís Màrquez +1
We present a framework for machine translation evaluation using neural networks in a pairwise setting, where the goal is to select the better translation from a pair of hypotheses,…
Discourse Structure in Machine Translation Evaluation
Shafiq Joty, Francisco Guzmán, Lluís Màrquez +1
In this article, we explore the potential of using sentence-level discourse structure for machine translation evaluation. We first design discourse-aware similarity measures, which…
Semantic Sentiment Analysis of Twitter Data
Preslav Nakov
Internet and the proliferation of smart mobile devices have changed the way information is created, shared, and spreads, e.g., microblogs such as Twitter, weblogs such as LiveJourn…
Cross-Language Question Re-Ranking
Giovanni Da San Martino, Salvatore Romeo, Alberto Barron-Cedeno +4
We study how to find relevant questions in community forums when the language of the new questions is different from that of the existing questions in the forum. In particular, we…
Building Chatbots from Forum Data: Model Selection Using Question Answering Metrics
Martin Boyanov, Ivan Koychev, Preslav Nakov +2
We propose to use question answering (QA) data from Web forums to train chatbots from scratch, i.e., without dialog training data. First, we extract pairs of question and answer se…
Robust Tuning Datasets for Statistical Machine Translation
Preslav Nakov, Stephan Vogel
We explore the idea of automatically crafting a tuning dataset for Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) that makes the hyper-parameters of the SMT system more robust with respect…
