2 paper cards in the Research library · 2004–2006

Michel Galley wrote 2 of the papers Mova reads, in 2004–2006, most of them on [Machine translation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/topics/machine-translation/); often with [Daniel Marcu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/daniel-marcu/), [Kevin Knight](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/kevin-knight/), Ignacio Thayer.

## Papers

1. **[Scalable Inference and Training of Context-Rich Syntactic Translation Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/galley-2006-scalable-inference-training-context-rich/)** *(2006)* The paper extends the rule extraction of Galley et al. (2004). Instead of keeping one minimal derivation per sentence pair, it builds a forest of many derivations, so that larger rules with more syntactic context and alternative readings of unaligned words are all available. It puts probabilities on these multi-level…
2. **[What's in a translation rule?](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/galley-2004-what-s-translation-rule/)** *(2004)* The paper gives a formal meaning to word alignments between a parsed English sentence and its translation.
