Extracting bilingual dictionary from comparable corpora with dependency heterogeneity

Kun Yu, Jun’ichi Tsujii · 2009

This paper proposes an approach for bilingual dictionary extraction from comparable corpora.The proposed approach is based on the observation that a word and its translation share similar dependency relations.Experimental results using 250 randomly selected translation pairs prove that the proposed approach significantly outperforms the traditional contextbased approach that uses bag-of-words around translation candidates.
