Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) systems are usually trained on large amounts of bilingual text and monolingual target language text. If a significant amount of out-of-domain data is added to the training data, the quality of translation can drop. On the other hand, training an SMT system on a small amount of training material for given indomain data leads to narrow lexical coverage which again results in a low translation quality. In this paper, (i) we explore domain-adaptation techniques to combine large out-of-domain training data with small-scale in-domain training data for English-Hindi statistical machine translation and (ii) we cluster large out-of-domain training data to extract sentences similar to in-domain sentences and apply adaptation techniques to combine clustered sub-corpora with in-domain training data into a unified framework, achieving a 0.44 absolute corresponding to a 4.03% relative improvement in terms of BLEU over the baseline. © 2009 by Rejwanul Haque, Sudip Kumar Naskar, Josef van Genabith, and Andy Way.
