Bilingual Word Association Networks

چکیده
Bilingual word association networks can be beneficial as a tool in foreign language education because they show relationships among cognate words of different languages and correspond to structures in the mental lexicon. This paper discusses possible technologies that can be used to generate and represent word association networks.

Constructing Word-Sense Association Networks from Bilingual Dictionary and Comparable Corpora
A novel thesaurus named a word-sense association network is proposed for the first time. It consists of nodes representing word senses, each of which is defined as a set consisting of a word and its translation equivalents, and edges connecting topically associated word senses. This word-sense association network is produced from a bilingual dictionary and comparable corpora by means of a new...
متن کاملBilingual Word Embeddings for Bilingual Terminology Extraction from Specialized Comparable Corpora
Bilingual lexicon extraction from comparable corpora is constrained by the small amount of available data when dealing with specialized domains. This aspect penalizes the performance of distributionalbased approaches, which is closely related to the reliability of word’s cooccurrence counts extracted from comparable corpora. A solution to avoid this limitation is to associate external resources...
متن کاملAugmenting a Bilingual Lexicon with Information for Word Translation Disambiguation
We describe a method for augmenting a bilingual lexicon with additional information for selecting an appropriate translation word. For each word in the source language, we calculate a correlation matrix of its association words versus its translation candidates. We estimate the degree of correlation by using comparable corpora based on these assumptions: “parallel word associations” and “one se...
متن کاملAssociation-Based Bilingual Word Alignment
Bilingual word alignment forms the foundation of current work on statistical machine translation. Standard wordalignment methods involve the use of probabilistic generative models that are complex to implement and slow to train. In this paper we show that it is possible to approach the alignment accuracy of the standard models using algorithms that are much faster, and in some ways simpler, bas...
متن کاملModeling bilingual word associations as connected monolingual networks
Word associations are a common tool in research on the mental lexicon. Studies report that bilinguals produce different word associations in their non-native language than monolinguals, and propose at least three mechanisms responsible for this difference: bilinguals may rely on their native associations (through translation), on collocational patterns, and on the phonological similarity betwee...
