This is used in the PRESEMT project, whose aim is the quick develop-ment of phrase-based Machine Transla-tion (MT) systems for new language pairs. A main bottleneck of such systems is the need to create compatible parsing schemes in the source and target lan-guages. This bottleneck is overcome by combining two modules, the Phrase aligner module and the Phrasing model generator, both of them being based on pattern recognition principles.", address = "Leuven, Belgium", booktitle = "Proceedings of the 15th International Conferecne of the European Association for Machine Translation", editor = "M.L.
