Although many researchers in the past have endeavored to solve the OOV term translation problems, but none existing methods offer definition or context information of OOV terms. Furthermore, non-existing methods focus on cross-language definition retrieval for OOV terms. Never the less, it has always been so difficult to evaluate the correctness of an OOV term translation without domain specific knowledge and correct references. Our English definition ranking method differentiate the types of OOV terms, and applies different methods for translation extraction. Our English definition ranking method also extracts multilingual context information and monolingual definitions of OOV terms. In addition, we propose a novel cross-language definition retrieval system for OOV terms. Never the less, we propose an auto re-evaluation method to evaluate the correctness of OOV translations and definitions. Our methods achieve high performances against existing methods.展开更多

However, most of the research is currently focused on similar language pairs. There are very few studies exploring the impact of using bilingual word vectors for cross-language information retrieval in long-distance language pairs. In this paper, it systematically analyzes the retrieval performance of various European languages (English, German, Italian, French, Finnish, Dutch) as well as Asian languages (Chinese, Japanese) in the adhoc task of CLEF 2002–2003 campaign. Genetic proximity was used to visually represent the relationships between languages and compare their crosslingual retrieval performance in various settings. The results show that the differences in language vocabulary would dramatically affect the retrieval performance. At the same time, the term by term translation retrieval method performs slightly better than the simple vector addition retrieval methods. It proves that the translation-based retrieval model can still maintain its advantage under the new semantic scheme.展开更多

The documents are ranked according to the relative entropies of estimated document language models with respect to the estimated query language model. Two popular and relatively efficient smoothing methods, the Jelinek- Mercer method and the absolute discounting method, are used to smooth the document language model in estimation of the document language, A combined model composed of the feedback document language model and the collection language model is used to estimate the query model. A performacne comparison between the new retrieval method and the existing method with feedback is made, and the retrieval performances of the proposed method with the two different smoothing techniques are evaluated on three Text Retrieval Conference （TREC） data sets. Experimental results show that the method is effective and performs better than the basic language modeling approach; moreover, the method using the Jelinek-Mercer technique performs better than that using the absolute discounting technique, and the perfomance is sensitive to the smoothing peramters.展开更多
