String Transduction with Target Language Models and Insertion Handling
Table 5: Word-level accuracy (in %) on large-scale cognate projection.
['System', 'EN-ES', 'EN-DE', 'EN-RU']
While DTL and the RNN generally improve upon BZG-13, DTLM vastly outstrips either alternative. On EN-RU, DTLM correctly produces nearly half of potential cognates, 3 times more than any of the other systems. We conclude that our results constitute a new state of the art for cognate projection.
