Just an immediate thought about constraints in SMT decoding
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~nbach/papers/naacl2009-cohesion-8pages.pdf
Just think of whether other constraints (e.g. reordering, chunking, translation boundaries, ...) can be integrated into a beam search phrasal SMT decoding. (try to validate this later!).
Reordering:

(Linguistically Annotated Reordering: http://www1.i2r.a-star.edu.sg/~dyxiong/paper/cl-preprint.pdf)
--> Idea: given a set of reordering rules manually annotated by humans, the questions is how to use it during SMT decoding???
