Yatian Shen, Xuanjing Huang · 2014
This paper proposes a novel two-stage method for bilingual product name dictionary construction from comparable corpora.In previous work, some researchers study the problem of expanding a set of given seed entities into a more complete set by discovering other entities that also belong to the same concept, it just solves the problem about expansion of entity set in a monolingual language, but the expansion of bilingual entity is really blank problem from comparable corpora.A typical example is to use/Honda-X"as seed entity, and derive other entities(e.g.,/Ford-4A") in the same concept set of product name.We address this problem by utilizing a two-stage approach based on entity set expansion and bilingual entity alignment from comparable corpora.Evaluations using English and Chinese reviewer corpus verify that our method outperforms conventional methods.
