Researchers have introduced a novel noisy channel decomposition for Minimum Bayes Risk (MBR) decoding, aiming to improve text generation quality. This approach addresses the asymmetry in common evaluation metrics like BLEU and COMET by naturally incorporating bidirectional effects between hypotheses and references. The decomposition breaks down MBR decoding into four interacting components: hypothesis-to-reference likelihood, reference-to-hypothesis likelihood, hypothesis prior, and reference prior. This framework offers a unified interpretation of existing MBR variants and allows for metric- and task-specific interpretability by isolating each channel's contribution. AI
