Abstract
We describe our systems for Tasks 1 and 2 of the WMT15 Shared Task on Quality Estimation. Our submissions use (i) a continuous space language model to extract additional features for Task 1 (SHEFGP, SHEF-SVM), (ii) a continuous bagof-words model to produce word embeddings as features for Task 2 (SHEF-W2V) and (iii) a combination of features produced by QuEst++ and a feature produced with word embedding models (SHEFQuEst++). Our systems outperform the baseline as well as many other submissions. The results are especially encouraging for Task 2, where our best performing system (SHEF-W2V) only uses features learned in an unsupervised fashion.
