4.7 Other Language Pairs

  1. Did Koehn et al.’s findings hold beyond German–English?
    Yes: for English–German, French–English, English–French, Finnish–English, Swedish–English and Chinese–English, the phrase model beat IBM Model 4 (e.g. French–English BLEU 0.2787 → 0.3294), and lexical weighting always helped further (0.3389).
