Abstract
In this paper we present a Neural Network (NN) architecture for detecting grammatical er- rors in Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) using monolingual morpho-syntactic word rep- resentations in combination with surface and syntactic context windows. We test our approach on two language pairs and two tasks, namely detecting grammatical errors and predicting over- all post-editing e ort. Our results show that this approach is not only able to accurately detect grammatical errors but it also performs well as a quality estimation system for predicting over- all post-editing e ort, which is characterised by all types of MT errors. Furthermore, we show that this approach is portable to other languages.
