Version 0.97 of OpenMaTrEx has been released. The OpenMaTrEx (http://openmatrex.org) hybrid EBMT-SMT system released comprises a marker-driven chunker (based on Green's "marker hypothesis"), a collection of chunk aligners, and two engines: one based on the simple proof-of-concept monotone recombinator (released in January 2010 as 'Marclator', http://www.openmatrex.org/marclator/) and a Moses-based decoder (http://www.statmt.org/moses/). OpenMaTrEx is a free/open-source version of the basic components of MaTrEx, the data-driven machine translation system designed by the Machine Translation group at the School of Computing of Dublin City University (http://nclt.dcu.ie/mt).
New in the 0.97 version: * added support for alignment distances based on chunk tags (Declan Groves) * support for translation model binarization (Sergio Penkale) * a facility to turn on debugging output (Antonio Toral) * and preliminary support for word packing optimization (Yanjun Ma: see http://www.mt-archive.info/ACL-2007-Ma.pdf) * corrected Catalan and French marker files (Mikel Forcada) * added preliminary Breton and Welsh marker files from Apertium (Mikel Forcada) For more information on other free/open-source MT systems: http://fosmt.info Best regards, Mikel L.
