As commercial use has increased, there is need for software that is optimized for commercial requirements, in particular, fast phrase-based decoding and more efficient utilization of modern multicore servers. In this paper we re-examine the major components of phrase-based decoding and decoder implementation with particular emphasis on speed and scalability on multicore machines. The result is a drop-in replacement for the Moses decoder which is up to fifteen times faster and scales monotonically with the number of cores.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/fast-scalable-phrase-based-smt-decoding/}, note = {arXiv:1610.04265}, }
