| Combination of multiple machine translation (MT) systems
has emerged as a powerful method of combining their strength, leading to better translation quality in comparison to the systems in isolation. The goal of this thesis is to design and implement a software tool capable of combining outputs of at least three different MT systems. The selected combination approach should be as language and system independent as possible. Translation quality gain will be evaluated on the task of English-to-Czech MT using state-of-the-art translation systems and automatic translation metrics. |
