  • Bilingual term recognition revisited : the bag-of-equivalents term alignment approach and its evaluation
    Vintar, Špela
    The paper describes LUIZ, a bilingual term recognition system that has been developed for the Slovene-English language pair. The system is a hybrid term extractor using morphosyntactic patterns and ... statistical ranking to propose domain- specific expressions for each of the two languages, whereupon translation equivalents between the languages are identified using the innovative bag-ofequivalents approach. This simple but effective method is based on the Twente word aligner to obtain a lexicon of single word translation pairs and their probability scores, which is then used to identifycorrespondences between multiword terms. The bilingual term recognition system has been tested and evaluated on three parallel subcorpora from the tourism, accounting and military domain. Average precision of the term alignment component is 0.83, whereby only fully equivalent and domain-relevant terms were counted as positives. Another advantage of the described approach is the fact that we successfully detect term variants and multiple translations of a candidate multi-word term. Since our term alignmentmethod does not require sentence-aligned corpora it can be used with comparable corpora, provided we already have a domain-specific lexicon or dictionary of single-word correspondences. The paper concludes with some thoughts on the users of term recognition systems and their needs based on ourobservations from the online version of the system.
