Bootstrapping Word Alignment via Word Packing
We introduce a simple method to pack words for statistical word alignment. Our goal is to simplify the task of automatic word alignment by packing several consecutive words togeth...

Multiple sequence alignment based bootstrapping for improved incremental word learning
We investigate incremental word learning with few training examples in a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) framework suitable for an interactive learning scenario with little prior knowle...

Feasibility of Automatically Bootstrapping a Persian WordNet
In this paper we describe a proof-of-concept for the bootstrapping of a Persian WordNet. This effort was motivated by previous work done at Stanford University on bootstrapping an...

Word Alignment via Submodular Maximization over Matroids
We cast the word alignment problem as maximizing a submodular function under matroid constraints. Our framework is able to express complex interactions between alignment component...

A Chunk-Driven Bootstrapping Approach to Extracting Translation Patterns
Abstract. We present a linguistically-motivated sub-sentential alignment system that extends the intersected IBM Model 4 word alignments. The alignment system is chunk-driven and r...
