This research paper proposes a method to convert existing speech translation corpora into interpretation-style data, allowing for the training of high-quality yet low-latency Simultaneous Machine Translation (SiMT) systems. The approach uses Large Language Models (LLMs) to preserve the original word order and maintain the entire source content. By fine-tuning SiMT models in both text-to-text and speech-to-text settings with this converted corpus, the paper demonstrates a reduction in latency while maintaining the same level of quality as models trained on offline datasets.

This study helps improve Simultaneous Machine Translation systems by creating a new way to use existing language translation data. The researchers found a way to change how we prepare speech translation data so that it’s better for training machine translation models. This makes the translation process faster and just as good, which is useful in many situations.
