Abstract
As empirical methods have come to the fore in multilingual language technology and translation studies, the processing of parallel texts and parallel corpora have become a major research area in computational linguistics. In this article we review the state of the art in alignment and data extraction techniques for parallel texts, and give an overview of current work in Sweden in this area. In a final section, we summarize the results achieved so far and make some proposals for future research. 1 Introduction In recent years much progress has been made in computational linguistics in developing tools and methods for the alignment of source texts with their translations, and for extracting translation data from the resulting parallel text. The purpose of this paper is to review the state of the art in automatic processing of parallel texts and describe current Swedish work in the area. In a final section, we discuss the results achieved so far and make some proposals for future researc...
