Research abstract
We propose to build on recent work that introduces syntactic processing into statistical machine translation models, to develop algorithms and techniques that will create improved performance levels with a given amount of training data, and reduce the amount of training data required to achieve a given performance level. Projected advances will enable development of translation capability for a much wider variety of languages, subject domains and application areas than are currently feasible with data intensive statistical approaches.
