Foreign Name Backward Transliteration in Chinese-English Cross-Language Image Retrieval
Abstract. In this paper we propose an approach to deal with the ChineseEnglish cross-language image retrieval problem. Text-based image retrieval and query translation methods were adopted in the experiments. A similaritybased backward transliteration model with candidate filter was proposed to translate proper nouns that have no entries in a bilingual dictionary. The experimental results showed that using similarity-based backward transliteration increased retrieval performances.
