This improvement is significant: in the recent NIST MT09 evaluation, the combined Arabic-English output scored 5.22 BLEU points higher than the best individual system. Concurrent with this paper, we release the source code behind this result consisting of a recombining beam search decoder, the combination search space and features, and several accessories. Here we describe how the released software works and its use.
