finding terminology translations from nonparallel corpora
Pascale Fung Kathleen McKeown
There is a wealth of literature on trying to establish subsentential translations from a bilingual corpus .3 Kay and R Â¨ oscheisen ( 1993 ) attempt to extract a bilingual dictionary using a hybrid method of sentence and word alignment on the assumption that the ( source , target ) words have a similar distribution . Fung and McKeown ( 1997 ) attempt to translate technical terms using word relation matrices , although the resource from which such relations are derived is a pair of nonparallel corpora . Somers ( 1998 ) replicates the work of Fung and McKeown with different language pairs using the simpler metric of Levenshtein distance .
