Ştefan Daniel Dumitrescu, Radu Ion, Dan Ştefănescu, Tiberiu Boroş, Dan Tufiş


Abstract
The paper presents the system developed by RACAI for the ISWLT 2012 competition, TED task, MT track, Romanian to English translation. We describe the starting baseline phrase-based SMT system, the experiments conducted to adapt the language and translation models and our post-translation cascading system designed to improve the translation without external resources. We further present our attempts at creating a better controlled decoder than the open-source Moses system offers.
