G^2C-MT: Graph-Guided Context Selection for Document-Level Machine Translation

arXiv:2606.03078v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Effective document-level machine translation (DocMT) requires capturing long-range discourse dependencies. Recent work has explored retrieval-based and discourse-aware context selection. However, these approaches often lack an explicit mechanism for modeling structured discourse dependencies between distant paragraphs in a document. In this paper, we propose G^2C-MT (Graph-Guided Context for Machine Translation), which views DocMT context selection as a structured path discovery problem on a lightweight discourse graph, rather than retrieving uns

Why this matters
Why now

The continuous advancements in AI research, particularly in natural language processing, are pushing the boundaries of machine translation to address complex linguistic challenges like long-range discourse dependencies.

Why it’s important

Improving document-level machine translation quality enhances cross-linguistic communication and information exchange, directly impacting global business, diplomacy, and scientific collaboration.

What changes

This research introduces a novel, graph-guided approach to context selection in DocMT, potentially leading to more coherent and accurate translations of extended texts.
