Reviews
“Linguistically Motivated Statistical Machine Translation, written by Deyi Xiong and Min Zhang is an overview of (mostly) already published work by the same researchers, rewritten into a coherent book that explains how several different research aspects fit into one research paradigm. … the book is inspiring and worth reading, if you wish to try out and improve your SMT system.” (Vincent Vandeghinste, Machine Translation, Vol. 29, 2015)
