In this work a hierarchical translation model is formally de-fined and integrated in a speech translation system.As it is well known, the relations between two languages are better arranged in terms of phrases than in terms of running words. Nevertheless phrase-based models may suffer from data sparsity at training time. The aim of this work is to improve current speech translation systems by integrating categorization within the translation model. The categories are sets of phrases either linguistically or statistically motivated. Both category and translation and acoustic models are within the framework of finite-state models. In what temporal cost is concerned, finite-state models count on efficient decoding algorithms. Regarding the spatial cost, all the models where integrated on-the-fly at decoding time, allowing an efficient use of memory. © Springer-Verlag 2010.
