Sharing dictionaries among MT users by common formats and social filtering framework
Shin-ichiro Kamei
Proceedings of Machine Translation Summit VII

MT users have to build "user dictionaries" in order to obtain high-quality translation results. However, building dictionaries needs time and labor. In order to meet the speed of the information flow in the global network society, we need to have common formats for sharing dictionaries among different MT systems, and a new way of dictionary authorization, that is "social filtering".

Proceedings of Machine Translation Summit VI: Papers

We, machine translation providers, as members of Asia-Pacific Association for Machine Translation (AAMT), are now establishing environments for sharing and exchanging user dictionaries among different machine translation systems. In order for users to utilize machine translation systems more effectively, we define common formats of user dictionaries, and establish electronic environments available for users to exchange their user dictionaries using these common formats. This task started in 1996, and the formats will be fixed in March of 1998.

AMTA/SIG-IL First Workshop on Interlinguas

This paper describes characteristics of an interlingua we have developed. It contains a large lexicon and has been tested on actual MT systems in the translation of large volumes of actual documents. The main characteristics of the interlingua are as follows: (1) Conceptual primitives, elements of the interlingua, can be linked to any parts of speech in English or Japanese. (2) Positions of the top node on the interlingua correspond to differences in syntactic structures. (3) Two or more conceptual graphs can be used for expressing the same concept, and can be converted to another by conceptual transformation rules which are independent of any specific language. (4) Conceptual primitives are divided into two classes; (a) functional conceptual primitives, which are finite and manageable and constitute, along with rules for interpreting conceptual graphs, the grammar of the interlingua, and (b) general conceptual primitives, which correspond to specific words in actual languages and which, depending on the direction of translation, may or may not be used. Our commercial MT products using the interlingua produce results of roughly the same or higher quality than systems using the syntactic transfer method, which fact indicates the feasibility of the interlingua approach.
