Matxin: Moving towards language independence
Aingeru Mayor | Francis M. Tyers
Proceedings of the First International Workshop on Free/Open-Source Rule-Based Machine Translation

This paper describes some of the issues found when adapting and extending the Matxin free-software machine translation system to other language pairs. It sketches out some of the characteristics of Matxin and offers some possible solutions to these issues.

Spanish-to-Basque MultiEngine Machine Translation for a Restricted Domain

Proceedings of the 8th Conference of the Association for Machine Translation in the Americas: Research Papers

We present our initial strategy for Spanish-to-Basque MultiEngine Machine Translation, a language pair with very different structure and word order and with no huge parallel corpus available. This hybrid proposal is based on the combination of three different MT paradigms: Example-Based MT, Statistical MT and Rule- Based MT. We have evaluated the system, reporting automatic evaluation metrics for a corpus in a test domain. The first results obtained are encouraging.

Workshop on open-source machine translation

We present the current status of development of an open architecture for the translation from Spanish into Basque. The machine translation architecture uses an open source analyser for Spanish and new modules mainly based on finite-state transducers. The project is integrated in the OpenTrad initiative, a larger government funded project shared among different universities and small companies, which will also include MT engines for translation among the main languages in Spain. The main objective is the construction of an open, reusable and interoperable framework. This paper describes the design of the engine, the formats it uses for the communication among the modules, the modules reused from other project named Matxin and the new modules we are building.
