Preparatory Work on Automatic Extraction of Bilingual Multi-Word Units from Parallel Corpora

Learning Method for Automatic Acquisition of Translation Knowledge

This paper presents a new learning method for automatic acquisition of translation knowledge from parallel corpora. We apply this learning method to automatic extraction of bilingual word pairs from parallel corpora. In general, similarity measures are used to extract bilingual word pairs from parallel corpora. However, similarity measures are insufficient because of the sparse data problem. Th...

On multiword lexical units and their role in maritime dictionaries

Multi-word lexical units are a typical feature of specialized dictionaries, in particular monolingual and bilingual maritime dictionaries. The paper studies the concept of the multi-word lexical unit and considers the similarities and differences of their selection and presentation in monolingual and bilingual maritime dictionaries. The work analyses such issues as the classification of multi-w...

Automatic extraction of bilingual word pairs using inductive chain learning in various languages

In this paper, we propose a new learning method for extracting bilingual word pairs from parallel corpora in various languages. In cross-language information retrieval, the system must deal with various languages. Therefore, automatic extraction of bilingual word pairs from parallel corpora with various languages is important. However, previous works based on statistical methods are insufficien...

Two-Step Flow in Bilingual Lexicon Extraction from Unrelated Corpora

This paper presents a language independent methodology for automatically extracting bilingual lexicon entries from the web without the need of resources like parallel or comparable corpora, POS tagging, nor an initial bilingual lexicon. It is suitable for specialized domains where bilingual lexicon entries are scarce. The input for the process is a corpus in the source language to use as exampl...
