Automatic Translation of Scientific Documents in the HAL Archive
Proceedings of the Eighth International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2012)
Abstract
This paper describes the development of a statistical machine translation system between French and English for scientific papers. This system will be closely integrated into the French HAL open archive, a collection of more than 100.000 scientific papers. We describe the creation of in-domain parallel and monolingual corpora, the development of a domain specific translation system with the created resources, and its adaptation using monolingual resources only. These techniques allowed us to improve a generic system by more than 10 BLEU points.
