[Corpora-List] Bilingual Dictionary from Comparable Corpora

[Krishnamurthy, Ramesh]

hi javid

i think you and i have different ideas about what a 'dictionary' is. :)

i think perhaps you just want to find 'word/phrase-equivalents' in comparable corpora in
different languages?

i don't know enough about computational linguistics, but i *suspect*
that both SketchEngine and Tshwanelex are for 'fuller' dictionaries,
eg with collocational, grammatical, semantic, phraseological info, etc
for each entry.... but they can probably be used with a bilingual lookup
(eg Wordnet) to  link items in the comparable corpora...?

ramesh

Maybe you want to have a look at alignment tools for comparable corpora such as:
- http://www.accurat-project.eu
- http://yalign.machinalis.com

I haven't used these tools myself but I would be interested to hear if they work for you.

Good luck!
Jörg

Dear Ramesh,
I only want to extract dictionary within an aligned bilingual corpus. I know that Moses can do it for parallel and sentence-level aligned corpus, but are the tools like SketchEngine or Tshwanelex extracting such a knowledge?
Best,
Javid

Hi,
Is there any tool for extracting probabilistic bilingual dictionary for a
bilingual comparable corpora? Does Moses support such a task?
Best,
Javid
