|
Lexical translation model that considers word order.
|
|
|
|
IBM Model 2 improves on Model 1 by accounting for word order.
|
|
An alignment probability is introduced, a(i | j,l,m), which predicts
|
|
a source word position, given its aligned target word's position.
|
|
|
|
The EM algorithm used in Model 2 is:
|
|
E step - In the training data, collect counts, weighted by prior
|
|
probabilities.
|
|
(a) count how many times a source language word is translated
|
|
into a target language word
|
|
(b) count how many times a particular position in the source
|
|
sentence is aligned to a particular position in the target
|
|
sentence
|
|
|
|
M step - Estimate new probabilities based on the counts from the E step
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notations:
|
|
i: Position in the source sentence
|
|
Valid values are 0 (for NULL), 1, 2, ..., length of source sentence
|
|
j: Position in the target sentence
|
|
Valid values are 1, 2, ..., length of target sentence
|
|
l: Number of words in the source sentence, excluding NULL
|
|
m: Number of words in the target sentence
|
|
s: A word in the source language
|
|
t: A word in the target language
