Simultaneous translation is the challenging task of listening to source language speech, and at the same time, producing target language speech. Human interpreters achieve this task routinely and effortlessly, using different strategies in order to minimize the latency in producing target language. Toward modeling the human interpretation process, we propose a novel input segmentation method using the phrase alignment structure of the language pair. We compare and contrast three incremental decoding and two different input segmentation strategies, including our proposed method, for simultaneous translation. We present accuracy and latency tradeoffs for each of the decoding strategies when applied to audio lectures from the TED collection.
