Decoder

We used ``Moses[4]'' as a decoder. In a Chinese to English translation, the position of the verb is sometimes significantly changed from its original position . Thus, we set the ``distortion weight (weight-d)'' to ``0.2'' and ``distortion-limit'' to ``-1''. Table 3 shows the other parameters. Also, we did not optimize these parameters or did not use the reordering model.
