# Qun Liu

3 paper cards in the Research library · 2006–2014

Qun Liu wrote 3 of the papers Mova reads, in 2006–2014, most of them on [Machine translation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/topics/machine-translation/); often with [Shouxun Lin](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shouxun-lin/), Haitao Mi, Hui Yu.

## Papers

1. **[RED: A Reference Dependency Based MT Evaluation Metric](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yu-2014-red-reference-dependency-based-mt/)** *(2014)* RED parses only the reference, never the hypothesis, so that parsing noise from the MT output does not enter the score.
2. **[Forest-Based Translation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/mi-2008-forest-based-translation/)** *(2008)* Tree-based translation takes the 1-best parse of the source sentence as input. A parser error then becomes a translation error. The paper proposes decoding over a packed forest, a compact graph that holds exponentially many parses, instead of the single tree. A k-best list is shown to be a poor substitute: a 50-best…
3. **[Tree-to-String Alignment Template for Statistical Machine Translation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/liu-2006-tree-string-alignment-template-statistical/)** *(2006)* A tree-to-string alignment template (TAT) pairs a source parse subtree, with variables at some of its leaves, with a target string that uses the same variables.
