Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: Translation rules extracted from automatic word alignment form the basis of statistical machine translation (SMT) systems. An unsupervised expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm is typically used to obtain a word alignment from parallel corpora. Being statistically-driven, the alignments produced by this technique are often erroneous. ,  propose an unsupervised boosting strategy for refining automatic word alignment with the goal of improving SMT performance. The proposed approach results in fer unaligned words, a significant reduction in the number of extracted translation phrase pairs, a corresponding improvement in SMT decoding speed, and a consistent improvement in translation accuracy, as measured by BLEU, across multiple language pairs and test sets. The reduction in storage and processing requirements coupled with improved accuracy make the proposed technique ideally suited for interactive translation services, facilitating applications such as mobile speech-to-speech translation.
