[Corpora-List] machine translation

[amin farajian]

 Dear Karine,
the corpus that you talked about (in Payame Noor University of Yazd) is
actually the one which is available in ELRA. There is also another parallel
corpus entitled PEN, developed by myself. It is not still publicly
available, but I'm going to publish it. In the following paper you can find
some information about it:
Mohammad Amin Farajian (2011). PEN: Parallel English-Persian News
Corpus<http://world-comp.org/p2011/ICA4953.pdf>.
Proceedings of 2011 International Conference on Artificial Intelligence
(ICAI'11), Nevada, USA.

There are some other researchers (Dr. khadivi in Amirkabir University, Dr.
Faili in University of Tehran, Dr. Analoui in Iran University of Science
and Technology) and research centers (ITRC and SCICT) in Iran which are
working on SMT and are building some parallel corpora, but as I know their
corpora are not available yet.

Best regards,
Amin

 I haven’t seen any other parallel English-Persian corpora besides the ones
already mentioned below. However, I have heard about a corpus being
developed by the English department at Payame Noor University in Yazd,
Iran. You may want to contact them. Here’s the info online:

“Our developmental English-Persian parallel corpus consists of about *three
million words* (more than 50,000 corresponding sentences in two languages).
This is a kind of ongoing corpus, that is, an open corpus in which more
material can be added as the need arises.”****

Hi Khamesi

According to this website
   http://opus.lingfil.uu.se/
There are 3 freely available parallel corpora for persian-english:
  TEP
  KDE
  OpenSubtitles

I've noticed other people, especially in Tehran, are also working on MT and
collect data, eg.
  http://ece.ut.ac.ir/iis/resources.html

Kind Regards
Hieu
