In the standard encoder (profile.rs), write a target function word (case marker, article, auxiliary) with the chunk of the content word it binds to, not through the word alignment. Measure the function-word class of the residual in… *([Effective Use of Function Words for Rule Generalization in…](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/wu-2011-effective-use-function-words-rule/) · translate r4-fw: function words bound to the head concept were much worse (186.4→278.2); the per-pair insert/drop table (r5-fwt) is kept instead)* ## Papers 1. **[Effective Use of Function Words for Rule Generalization in Forest-Based Translation](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/wu-2011-effective-use-function-words-rule/)** *(2011)* English-to-Japanese forest-to-string translation on about one million abstract pairs. In a hand check of 100 GIZA++ alignments, 309 of 1,324 links were wrong, and 237 of those were target function words (particles and auxiliaries), which tend to align to a few English words such as "of" and "the".
