A Linguistically Grounded Graph Model for Bilingual Lexicon Extraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a new method, based on graph theory, for bilingual lexicon extraction without relying on resources with limited availability like parallel corpora. The graphs we use represent linguistic relations between words such as adjectival modification. We experiment with a number of ways of combining different linguistic relations and present a novel method, multi-edge extraction (MEE), that is both modular and scalable. We evaluate MEE on adjectives, verbs and nouns and show that it is superior to cooccurrence-based extraction (which does not use linguistic analysis). Finally, we publish a reproducible baseline to establish an evaluation benchmark for bilingual lexicon extraction.

Co-occurrence Graph Based Iterative Bilingual Lexicon Extraction From Comparable Corpora
This paper presents an iterative algorithm for bilingual lexicon extraction from comparable corpora. It is based on a bagof-words model generated at the level of sentences. We present our results of experimentation on corpora of multiple degrees of comparability derived from the FIRE 2010 dataset. Evaluation results on 100 nouns shows that this method outperforms the standard context-vector bas...
متن کاملDeLex, a freely-avaible, large-scale and linguistically grounded morphological lexicon for German
We introduce DeLex, a freely-avaible, large-scale and linguistically grounded morphological lexicon for German developed within the Alexina framework. We extracted lexical information from the German wiktionary and developed a morphological inflection grammar for German, based on a linguistically sound model of inflectional morphology. Although the developement of DeLex involved some manual wor...
متن کاملIterative Bilingual Lexicon Extraction from Comparable Corpora Using Topic Model and Context Based Methods
In the literature, two main categories of methods have been proposed for bilingual lexicon extraction from comparable corpora, namely topic model and context based methods. In this paper, we present a bilingual lexicon extraction system that is based on a novel combination of these two methods in an iterative process. Our system does not rely on any prior knowledge and the performance can be it...
متن کاملAn Approach Based on Multilingual Thesauri and Model Combination for Bilingual Lexicon Extraction
This paper focuses on exploiting different models and methods in bilingual lexicon extraction, either from parallel or comparable corpora, in specialized domains. First, a special attention is given to the use of multilingual thesauri, and different search strategies based on such thesauri are investigated. Then, a method to combine the different models for bilingual lexicon extraction is prese...
متن کاملA Combination of Models for Bilingual Lexicon Extraction from Comparable Corpora
In this paper we present a method to extract bilingual terminologies from comparable non-aligned corpora, by using multiple linguistic knowledge sources, such as: non-parallel corpora, bilingual thesauri, a preliminary bilingual dictionary, etc... We focus on two core technologies: bilingual lexicon extraction from comparable corpora and expansion through thesauri categories based on different ...
