Compared with left-to-right transduction , middle-out transduction also aids robustness because , when complete derivations are not available , partial derivations tend to have meaningful headwords . At the same time , we believe our method has advantages over the approach developed initially at IBM ( Brown et al. 1990 ; Brown et al. 1993 ) for training translation systems automatically . One advantage is that our method attempts to model the natural decomposition of sentences into phrases .
