Abstract

A computer-implemented system and a method for pruning a library of bi-phrases, suitable for use in a machine translation system are provided. The method includes partitioning a bi-phrase library into a set of sub-libraries. The sub-libraries may be of different complexity such that, when pruning bi-phrases from the plurality of sub-libraries is based on a common noise threshold, a complexity of bi-phrases is taken into account in pruning the bi-phrases.
