Abstract

A syntactic analysis and hierarchical phrase model based machine translation system and method are provided. The machine translation system includes a word alignment module, a phrase extraction module, a gender syntactic annotation module, a syntactic based noncontiguous phrase abstract module, a noncontiguous phrase based translation module and an evaluation module. The machine translation system and method performs syntactic analysis based on a common contiguous phrase based machine translation model, and extracts a syntactic based noncontiguous phrase rule set from a bilingual aligned text, so as to address and issue of noncontiguous fixed custom in context of a whole sentence, and to comply with syntactic features of a language, translation is performed based on the noncontiguous phrase rule set and the phrase aligned table, and the translation results are evaluated based on the evaluation model, thereby improving the translation result.
