متن کاملNamed Entities Translation Based On Comparable Corpora
In this paper we present a system for translating named entities from Basque to Spanish based on comparable corpora. For that purpose we have tried two approaches: one based on Basque linguistic features, and a language-independent tool. For both tools we have used BasqueSpanish comparable corpora, a bilingual dictionary and the web as resources.
