Abstract
Experiments on multiple data sets show that the proposed approach (1) outperforms the monolingual baselines, significantly improving the accuracy for both languages by 3.44%-8.l2%; (2) outperforms two standard approaches for leveraging unlabeled data; and (3) produces (albeit smaller) performance gains when employing pseudo-parallel data from machine translation engines.
Conclusion
Our experiments show that the proposed approach can significantly improve sentiment classification for both languages.
Introduction
Accuracy is significantly improved for both languages, by 3.44%-8.12%.
Results and Analysis
Preliminary experiments showed that Equation 5 does not significantly improve the performance in our case, which is reasonable since we choose only sentence pairs with the highest translation probabilities to be our unlabeled data (see Section 4.1).

Abstract
We obtain statistically significant improvements across 4 different language pairs with English as source, mounting up to +1.92 BLEU for Chinese as target.
Experiments
Even for Dutch and German, which pose additional challenges such as compound words and morphology which we do not explicitly treat in the current system, LTS still delivers significant improvements in performance.
Experiments
Notably, as can be seen in Table 2(b), switching to a 4-gram LM results in performance gains for both the baseline and our system and while the margin between the two systems decreases, our system continues to deliver a considerable and significant improvement in translation BLEU scores.
Introduction
By advancing from structures which mimic linguistic syntax, to learning linguistically aware latent recursive structures targeting translation, we achieve significant improvements in translation quality for 4 different language pairs in comparison with a strong hierarchical translation baseline.

Abstract
Extensive experiments involving large-scale English-to-Japanese translation revealed a significant improvement of 1.8 points in BLEU score, as compared with a strong forest-to-string baseline system.
Conclusion
Extensive experiments on large-scale English-to-Japanese translation resulted in a significant improvement in BLEU score of 1.8 points (p < 0.01), as compared with our implementation of a strong forest-to-string baseline system (Mi et al., 2008; Mi and Huang, 2008).
Experiments
Taking M&H-F as the baseline translation rule set, we achieved a significant improvement (p < 0.01) of 1.81 points.
