Abstract

This paper describes a machine translation architecture that integrates the use of examples for flexible, idiomatic translations with the use of linguistic rules for broad coverage and grammatical accuracy. We have implemented a prototype for English-to-Japanese translation, and our evaluation shows that the system has good translation quality, and only requires reasonable computational resources.
