ABSTRACT	{t illmann, ney}©inf ormat ik. rwth-aachen, de In this paper, we study the use of so-called word trigger pairs to improve an existing language model, which is typically a tri-gram model in combination with a cache component. A word trigger pair is de-fined as a long-distance word pair. We present two methods to select the most significant single word trigger pairs. The selected trigger pairs are used in a com-bined model where the interpolation pa-rameters and trigger interaction parame-ters are trained by the EM algorithm. 1	SVM HeaderParse 0.1
