Automatic bilingual term extraction is essential for providing a consistent bilingual term list for human translators engaged in translating a set of documents. We compare three statisticalmeasures for extracting bilingual terms from a phrase-table built from a parallel corpus. We show that these measures extract different bilingual term candidates and a combination of these measures ranks vali...

For any odd integer n≥3 a board (of size n) is square array of n×n positions with simple rule how to move between positions. The goal the game we introduce find path from upper left corner center square. If there exists such say that solvable, and length this shortest path. There are 8n2 different boards. We discuss various properties these boards present some questions conjectures. In particul...

Most of the existing methods for bilingual word embedding only consider shallow context or simple co-occurrence information. In this paper, we propose a latent bilingual sense unit (Bilingual Sense Clique, BSC), which is derived from a maximum complete sub-graph of pointwise mutual information based graph over bilingual corpus. In this way, we treat source and target words equally and a separat...
