Abstract

This paper proposed a Chinese-Korean neural machine translation model called QE-Transformer based on reinforcement learning and machine translation quality estimation to solve the problems about exposure bias and diversity in current machine translation. First of all, this model introduced an evaluation mechanism into the sentence level to guide the model when the prediction couldn't converge completely on the ground truth. And furthermore, it used reinforcement learning as a guiding strategy to optimize the sequence of objectives at the sentence level. Finally, by using monolingual data and different granularity data preprocessing in the training process, it alleviated the problem of data sparsity. Experimental results show that the QE-Transformer can improve effectively the Chinese-Korean machine translation performance compared with Transformer, the BLEU value increases by 5.39 and the QE score decreases by 5.16 in the direction of the Chinese to Korean machine translation, the BLEU value increases by 2.73 and the QE score decreases by 2.82 in the direction of the Korean to Chinese machine translation.
