In word sense disambiguation, choosing the most frequent sense for an ambiguous word is a powerful heuristic. However, its usefulness is restricted by the availability of sense-an...
Abstract. We present the fusion of simple retrieval strategies with thesaural resources to perform document and query translation by text categorisation for cross
A major obstacle to the construction of a probabilistic translation model is the lack of large parallel corpora. In this paper we first describe a parallel text mining system that...
