Mutual terminology extraction using a statistical framework
In this paper, we explore a statistical framework for mutual bilingual terminology extraction. We propose three probabilistic models to assess the proposition that automatic alignment can play an active role in bilingual terminology extraction and translate it into mutual bilingual terminology extraction. The results indicate that such models are valid and can show that mutual bilingual terminology extraction is indeed a viable approach
Reducing Parameter Space for Word Alignment
This paper presents the experimental results of our attemps to reduce the size of the parameter space in word alignment algorithm. We use IBM Model 4 as a baseline. In order to reduce the parameter space, we pre-processed the training corpus using a word lemmatizer and a bilingual term extraction algorithm. Using these additional components, we obtained an improvement in the alignment error rate
