ABSTRACT
Since January 1963 when "Sketch Pad, A Man-Machine Graphical Communication System" by Ivan E. Sutherland was published as a Ph.D. Thesis at M.I.T., graphic displays on computers have been used for a variety of experimental and production purposes. The motivation behind the system described here, is to provide an interactive graphic input/output facility to a number of existing software systems. Our business, like many others, has developed over the past 10 years a number of sophisticated and complex "Computer Aided Design" systems. These systems include principally numerical control part programming systems and engineering design analysis systems. Although these systems have proven themselves to be a necessary part of the design, and manufacturing process, nevertheless preparing input and assimilating output is still a time consuming process for the users. The interactive display speeds up these processes. Its output is more meaningful, too, since pictures as well as numbers and text are used as communication media between the man and the machine.

Preordering using a Target-Language Parser via Cross-Language Syntactic Projection for Statistical Machine Translation
When translating between languages with widely different word orders, word reordering can present a major challenge. Although some word reordering methods do not employ source-language syntactic structures, such structures are inherently useful for word ...
Incremental syntactic language models for phrase-based translation
HLT '11: Proceedings of the 49th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics: Human Language Technologies - Volume 1This paper describes a novel technique for incorporating syntactic knowledge into phrase-based machine translation through incremental syntactic parsing. Bottom-up and top-down parsers typically require a completed string as input. This requirement ...
Language Modeling for Syntax-Based Machine Translation Using Tree Substitution Grammars: A Case Study on Chinese-English Translation
The poor grammatical output of Machine Translation (MT) systems appeals syntax-based approaches within language modeling. However, previous studies showed that syntax-based language modeling using (Context-Free) Treebank Grammars was not very helpful in ...
