Papineni, Roukos, Ward and Zhu: BLEU machine-translation evaluation

Proposed an automatic corpus-level machine-translation evaluation measure based on modified n-gram precision and a brevity penalty, and compared it with human judgments in the reported settings.

What is recorded here?

Proposed an automatic corpus-level machine-translation evaluation measure based on modified n-gram precision and a brevity penalty, and compared it with human judgments in the reported settings.

Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.

Scientific scope

The record is the exact four-author ACL 2002 paper. BLEU measures reference overlap rather than meaning, depends on tokenization, references and aggregation choices, and is not a universal substitute for human or task-specific evaluation.
