Constructing of a Large-Scale Chinese-English Parallel Corpus
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the constructing of a large-scale (above 500,000 pair sentences) Chinese-English parallel corpus. The current status of Chinese corpora is overviewed with the emphasis on parallel corpus. The XML coding principles for Chinese–English parallel corpus are discussed. The sentence alignment algorithm used in this project is described with a computer-aided checking processing. Finally, we show the design of the concordance of the parallel corpus and the prospect to further development.

Chinese-English Parallel Corpus Construction and its Application
Chinese-English parallel corpora are key resources for Chinese-English cross-language information processing, Chinese-English bilingual lexicography, Chinese-English language research and teaching. But so far large-scale Chinese-English corpus is still unavailable yet, given the difficulties and the intensive labours required. In this paper, our work towards building a large-scale Chinese-Engli...
متن کاملMining Large-scale Parallel Corpora from Multilingual Patents: An English-Chinese example and its application to SMT
In this paper, we demonstrate how to mine large-scale parallel corpora with multilingual patents, which have not been thoroughly explored before. We show how a large-scale English-Chinese parallel corpus containing over 14 million sentence pairs with only 1-5% wrong can be mined from a large amount of English-Chinese bilingual patents. To our knowledge, this is the largest single parallel corpu...
متن کاملUM-Corpus: A Large English-Chinese Parallel Corpus for Statistical Machine Translation
Parallel corpus is a valuable resource for cross-language information retrieval and data-driven natural language processing systems, especially for Statistical Machine Translation (SMT). However, most existing parallel corpora to Chinese are subject to in-house use, while others are domain specific and limited in size. To a certain degree, this limits the SMT research. This paper describes the ...

متن کاملLarge - Scale Automatic Extraction of anEnglish - Chinese Translation
We report experimental results on automatic extraction of an English-Chinese translation lexicon, by statistical analysis of a large parallel corpus, using limited amounts of linguistic knowledge. To our knowledge, these are the rst empirical results of the kind between an Indo-Europeanand non-Indo-Europeanlanguage for any signiicantvocabulary and corpus size. The learned vocabulary size is abo...
