Feature Selection for Factored Phrase-Based Machine Translation / Feature Selection for Factored Phrase-Based Machine Translation

In the presented work we investigate factored models for machine translation. We provide a thorough theoretical description of this machine translation paradigm. We describe a method for evaluating the complexity of factored models and verify its usefulness in practice. We present a software tool for automatic creation of machine translation experiments and search in the space of possible configurations. In the experimental part of the work we verify our analyses and give some insight into the potential of factored systems. We indicate some of the possible directions that lead to improvement in translation quality, however we conclude that it is not possible to explore these options in a fully automatic way.
