3.2 Syntactic Phrases
- Why might one restrict phrase pairs to syntactic constituents, and how did Koehn et al. test it?Consistent pairs include non-intuitive phrases like “house the”, and syntax-based MT models (Yamada and Knight 2001; Wu 1997) can only use phrases spanning whole subtrees. Both sides were parsed, and only consistent pairs where both phrases are subtrees were kept: a subset of all consistent pairs.
