Abstract

This paper outlines customization of a machine translation system using translation templates, which enable users to represent the bilingual knowledge needed for complex translation. To evaluate their effectiveness, we analyzed a bilingual text to estimate the improvement in customizability. The result shows that about 60% of mistranslated sentences can be translated as model translations by combining the proposed framework with the conventional customizing functions.
