Summary
This is a dynamic programming algorithm on Word Alignments. This work extends IBM Model 1 and IBM Model 2, which models lexical translation probabilities and absolute distortion probabilities, by also modeling relative distortion.
The relative distortion is modeled by applying a first-order Hidden Markov Model, where each alignment probabilities are dependent on the distortion of the previous alignment.
Results indicate that Modeling the relative distortion can improve the overall quality of the Word Alignments.
