Machine Translation of the Ural-altaic as an Agglutinative Language

In this paper we present the results of Korean to Japanese translation in especial from the machine translation system between Korean and Japanese language which have linguistic properties and similarities strongly in Syntax or Phraseology as the Ural-Altaic languages. For its implementation, we have developed syntax based machine translation system KANT designed to be capable of multi-lingual ...

Alignment Across Oriental and Indo-European Languages

The linguistic characteristics of Oriental languages and Indo-European languages are very different. Using purely length-based algorithm could not produce high performance on aligning texts. This paper investigates the effectiveness of critical part-of-speech (POS) criterion on alignment under conditions of different search strategies and different register texts. Two metrics, recall and precis...

Indo-European languages tree by Levenshtein distance

The evolution of languages closely resembles the evolution of haploid organisms. This similarity has been recently exploited [1, 2] to construct language trees. The key point is the definition of a distance among all pairs of languages which is the analogous of a genetic distance. Many methods have been proposed to define these distances, one of this, used by glottochronology, compute distance ...

Proto-Indo-European Lexicon: The Generative Etymological Dictionary of Indo-European Languages

Proto-Indo-European Lexicon (PIE Lexicon) is the generative etymological dictionary of Indo-European languages. The reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European (PIE) is obtained by applying the comparative method, the output of which equals the Indo-European (IE) data. Due to this the Indo-European sound laws leading from PIE to IE, revised in Pyysalo 2013, can be coded using Finite-State Transducers...
