It has been noticed in the field of translation studies that simulta- neous interpreters perform a number of tricks to make the content easier to understand in real-time, including dividing their translations into small chunks, or summarizing less im- portant content. However, the majority of previous work has not specifically considered this fact, simply using translation data (made by translators) for learning of the machine trans- lation system. In this paper, we examine the possibilities of additionally incorporating simultaneous interpretation data (made by simultaneous interpreters) in the learning process. First we collect simultaneous interpretation data from profes- sional simultaneous interpreters of three levels, and perform an analysis of the data. Next, we incorporate the simultane- ous interpretation data in the learning of the machine trans- lation system. As a result, the translation style of the system becomes more similar to that of a highly experienced simul- taneous interpreter. We also find that according to automatic evaluation metrics, our system achieves performance similar to that of a simultaneous interpreter that has 1 year of expe- rience.
