Abstract

This paper describes the development of French--English and English--French statistical machine translation systems for the 2012 WMT shared task evaluation. We developed phrase-based systems based on the Moses decoder, trained on the provided data only. Additionally, new features this year included improved language and translation model adaptation using the cross-entropy score for the corpus selection.
