Abstract

LIUM participated in the System Combination task of the Fifth Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation (WMT 2010). Hypotheses from 5 French/English MT systems were combined with MANY, an open source system combination software based on confusion networks currently developed at LIUM. The system combination yielded significant improvements in BLEU score when applied on WMT'09 data. The same behavior has been observed when tuning is performed on development data of this year evaluation.
