Abstract

This paper describes our phrase-based Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) system for the WMT10 Translation Task. We submitted translations for the German to English and English to German translation tasks. Compared to state-of-the-art phrase-based systems we preformed additional preprocessing and used a discriminative word alignment approach. The word reordering was modeled using POS information and we extended the translation model with additional features.
