Cross-Language Information Access : a case study for English and Japanese

概要

論文の詳細を見る
Internet search engines allow access to online information all over the world. The current assumption, that users are fluent in the language of the query and document collection, is clearly unreasonable given the growing number of languages used on the Internet. This paper shows how information retrieval and machine translation can be combined for cross-language information retrieval in an information-access frame-work. We present encouraging experimental results using English queries to retrieve Japanese documents from the BMIR-J2 test collection. A complete example demonstrates that technology already exists to provide effective and potentially useful cross-language information access applications.
