2. **[Simple and Effective Noisy Channel Modeling for Neural Machine Translation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yee-2019-simple-effective-noisy-channel-modeling/)** *(2019 · 104 citations)* The paper revisits noisy channel modeling for neural machine translation. Bayes' rule splits translation into a reverse channel model p(x|y) and a target language model p(y), and the language model can be trained on unpaired monolingual text. Earlier neural work (Yu et al., 2017) used incremental latent-variable…
