Exploring Context Variation and Lexicon Coverage in Projection-based Approach for Term Translation

Identifying translations in comparable corpora has inspired many studies in bilingual terminology extraction [4, 5]. Projection-based approaches, which are among the most popular ones, rely on a seed bilingual lexicon. Surprisingly, there is no careful analysis of the impact of the size the initial context and coverage of the lexicon. This is precisely the focus of this study. We observe that s...

Bilingual terminology extraction: an approach based on a multilingual thesaurus applicable to comparable corpora

This paper presents several methods for exploiting multiple resources in bilingual lexicon extraction, either from parallel or comparable corpora.

Then, a method to optimally combine the different resources for bilingual lexicon extraction is presente...
