Effective Compositional Model for Lexical Alignment

چکیده
The automatic compilation of bilingual dictionaries from comparable corpora has been successful for single-word terms (SWTs), but remains disappointed for multi-word terms (MWTs). The increase of coverage of bilingual dictionary thanks to compositional translation improved the results, but still shows some limits for MWTs of different syntactic structures. In this paper, we propose to bridge the gap between syntactic structures through morphological links. The results show a significant improvement in the compositional translation of MWTs that demonstrate the efficiency of the morphologically based-method for lexical alignment.

An Effective Compositional Model for Lexical Alignment
The automatic compilation of bilingual dictionaries from comparable corpora has been successful for single-word terms (SWTs), but remains disappointing for multi-word terms (MWTs). One of the main problems is the insufficient coverage of the bilingual dictionary. Using the compositional translation method improved the results, but still shows some limits for MWTs of different syntactic structur...
متن کاملCombining String and Context Similarity for Bilingual Term Alignment from Comparable Corpora
Automatically compiling bilingual dictionaries of technical terms from comparable corpora is a challenging problem, yet with many potential applications. In this paper, we exploit two independent observations about term translations: (a) terms are often formed by corresponding sub-lexical units across languages and (b) a term and its translation tend to appear in similar lexical context. Based ...
متن کاملDeveloping a Compositional Reservoir Model for Investigating the Effect of Interfacial Tension on Oil Recovery
In this paper, a simplified formulation for compositional reservoir simulator is presented. These types of simulators are used when inter-phase mass transfer depends on phase composition as well as pressure. The procedure for solving compositional model equations is completely described. For equilibrium calculation, property estimation Peng Robinson equation of state is used. This equation ...
متن کاملAssessing Lexical Alignment in Spontaneous Direction Dialogue Data by Means of a Lexicon Network Model
We apply a network model of lexical alignment, called TwoLevel Time-Aligned Network Series, to natural route direction dialogue data. The model accounts for the structural similarity of interlocutors’ dialogue lexica. As classification criterion the directions are divided into effective and ineffective ones. We found that effective direction dialogues can be separated from ineffective ones with...
متن کاملDissecting the Practical Lexical Function Model for Compositional Distributional Semantics
The Practical Lexical Function model (PLF) is a recently proposed compositional distributional semantic model which provides an elegant account of composition, striking a balance between expressiveness and robustness and performing at the state-of-the-art. In this paper, we identify an inconsistency in PLF between the objective function at training and the prediction at testing which leads to a...
