TREC 2001 cross-lingual retrieval at BBN
Jinxi Xu, Alexander Fraser, Ralph Weischedel · 2002
BBN participated only in the cross-language track at TREC-9. We extended the monolingual approach of Miller et al. (1999), which uses hidden Markov models (HMM), by incorporating translation probabilities from Chinese terms to English terms. We will describe our approach in detail in the next section.
