Abstract. We describe OpenMaTrEx, a free/open-source examplebased machine translation (EBMT) system based on the marker hypothesis, comprising a marker-driven chunker, a collection of chunk aligners, and two engines: one based on a simple proof-of-concept monotone EBMT recombinator and a Moses-based statistical decoder. OpenMa-TrEx is a free/open-source release of the basic components of MaTrEx, the Dublin City University machine translation system.

This paper describes the resources available in the Apertium platform, a free/open-source framework for creating rule-based machine translation systems. Resources within the platform take the form of finite-state morphologies for morphological analysis and generation, bilingual transfer lexica, probabilistic part-of-speech taggers and transfer rule files, all in standardised formats. These resources are described and some examples are given of their reuse and recycling in combination with other machine translation systems. 1.
