Synopsis

Recent Advances in Example-Based Machine Translation is of relevance to researchers and program developers in the field of Machine Translation and especially Example-Based Machine Translation, bilingual text processing and cross-linguistic information retrieval. It is also of interest to translation technologists and localisation professionals.

Recent Advances in Example-Based Machine Translation fills a void, because it is the first book to tackle the issue of EBMT in depth. It gives a state-of-the-art overview of EBMT techniques and provides a coherent structure in which all aspects of EBMT are embedded. Its contributions are written by long-standing researchers in the field of MT in general, and EBMT in particular. This book can be used in graduate-level courses in machine translation and statistical NLP.

About this title

Review

Michael Carl and Andy Way have done the field of MT and that of natural language processing in general a big favor by producing this collection. This is the first (fat) book-sized collection of current research in this fascinating area of MT, and it contains a number of chapters that will bring anyone interested quickly up to speed in this research area. ...

I would recommend this book to everyone active or interested in MT, and especially the papers of the foundational part I to computational linguistics researchers in general.
