The Group was set up in January 2007 as an ad hoc committee to: • review current global plans for space exploration; • assess what opportunities and benefits exist for UK participation; and • provide advice to BNSC and partners as to which areas the UK should focus on if it wishes to engage in space exploration. This analysis is on behalf of BNSC partners for input to UK Space Board, BNSC Space Advisory Council, PPARC Science Committee (or its successor), BNSC Space Technology Advisory Board and other relevant advisory committees. The views expressed are those of the members of the Group and not necessarily of their institutions. 2

Parallel corpora have become an essential resource for work in multilingual natural language processing. In this report, we describe our work using the STRAND system for mining parallel text on the World Wide Web, first reviewing the original algorithm and results and then presenting a set of significant enhancements. These enhancements include the use of supervised learning based on structural features of documents to improve classification performance, a new content-based measure of translational equivalence, and adaptation of the system to take advantage of the Internet Archive for mining parallel text from the Web on a large scale.

Lexical-semantic resources, including thesauri and WORDNET, have been successfully incorporated into a wide range of applications in Natural Language Processing. However they are very difficult and expensive to create and maintain, and their usefulness has been severely hampered by their limited coverage, bias and inconsistency. Automated and semi-automated methods for developing such resources are therefore crucial for further resource development and improved application performance.
