Abstract

In this paper we describe the Interactive Systems Laboratories (ISL) phrase-based machine translation system used in the shared task "Machine Translation for European Languages" of the ACL 2007 Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation. We present results for a system combination of the ISL syntax-augmented MT system and the ISL phrase-based system by combining and rescoring the n-best lists of the two systems. We also investigate the combination of two of our phrase-based systems translating from different source languages, namely Spanish and German, into their common target language, English.
