Rapidly Retargetable Interactive Translingual Retrieval
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a system for rapidly retargetable interactive translingual retrieval. Basic functionality can be achieved for a new document language in a single day, and further improvements require only a relatively modest additional investment. We applied the techniquesfirst to searchChinese collections using English queries, and have successfully added French, German, and Italian document collections. We achievethis capability through separation of languagedependent and language-independent components and through the application of asymmetric techniques that leverage an extensiveEnglish retrieval infrastructure.

Translingual information retrieval (TLIR) consists of providing a query in one language and searching document collections in one or more diierent languages. This paper introduces new TLIR methods and reports on comparative TLIR experiments with these new methods and with previously reported ones in a realistic setting. Methods fall into two categories: query translation and statistical-IR appr...

Like full-text translation, cross-language information retrieval (CLIR) is a task that requires some form of knowledge transfer across languages. Although robust translation resources are critical for constructing high quality translation tools, manually constructed resources are limited both in their coverage and in their adaptability to a wide range of applications. Automatic mining of transl...

We present an attempt at a coherent vision of an end-to-end translingual information retrieval system. We begin by presenting a sample of the broad range of possibilities, and the results of some initial work comparing the diierent approaches. We then present an overall workstation architecture, followed by two possible approaches to the actual translingual IR stage presented in detail. Ranking...
