We present a translation model based on dependency trees. The model adopts a tree-to-string approach and extends Phrase-Based translation (PBT) by using the dependency tree of the source sentence for selecting translation options and for reordering them. Decoding is done by translating each node in the tree and combining its translations with those of its head in alternative orders with respect to its siblings. Reordering of the siblings exploits a heuristic based on the syntactic information from the parse tree which is learned from the corpus. The decoder uses the same phrase tables produced by a PBT system for looking up translations of single words or of partial sub-trees. A mathematical model is presented and experimental results are discussed.
