Abstract:

This paper presents work on the task of constructing a word-level translation lexicon purely from unrelated monolingual corpora. We combine various clues such as cognates, similar context, preservation of word similarity, and word frequency. Experimental results for the construction of a German-English noun lexicon are reported.
