Parallel corpora are one of the key resources in natural language processing. In spite of their importance in many multi-lingual applications, no large-scale English-Persian corpus has been made available so far, given the difficulties in its creation and the intensive labors required. In this paper, the construction process of Tehran English-Persian parallel corpus (TEP) using movie subtitles,...

In this article, we have introduced the first parallel corpus of Persian with more than 10 other European languages. This article describes primary steps toward preparing a Basic Language Resources Kit (BLARK) for Persian. Up to now, we have proposed morphosyntactic specification of Persian based on EAGLE/MULTEXT guidelines and specific resources of MULTEXT-East. The article introduces Persian ...

Bilingual parallel corpora are very important in various filed of natural language processing (NLP). The quality of a Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) system strongly dependent upon the amount of training data. For low resource language pairs such as Persian-English, there are not enough parallel sentences to build an accurate SMT system. This paper describes a new approach to use the Wiki...

Translating from English, a morphologically poor language, into morphologically rich languages such as Persian comes with many challenges. In this paper, we present an approach to rich morphology prediction using a parallel corpus. We focus on the verb conjugation as the most important and problematic phenomenon in the context of morphology in Persian. We define a set of linguistic features usi...

Word Sense Disambiguation has long been a central problem in computational linguistics. Word Sense Disambiguation is the ability to identify the meaning of words in context in a computational manner. Statistical and supervised approaches require a large amount of labeled resources as training datasets. In contradistinction to English, the Persian language has neither any semantically tagged cor...

In " Applications of Comparable Corpora " edited book Berlin Linguistic Press (ed.). The effectiveness of a statistical machine translation system (SMT) is very dependent upon the amount of parallel corpus used in the training phase. For low-resource l...

Plagiarism detection is the process of locating text reuse within a suspicious document. The plagiarism detection corpora are used for evaluating plagiarism detection systems. In this paper, we present a bilingual PersianEnglish plagiarism detection corpus. We provide our corpus for the task of text alignment corpus construction in the PAN 2015 competition. Our approach is based on parallel cor...
