Orthographic Features for Bilingual Lexicon Induction

Parker Riley, Daniel Gildea


Abstract
Recent embedding-based methods in bilingual lexicon induction show good results, but do not take advantage of orthographic features, such as edit distance, which can be helpful for pairs of related languages. This work extends embedding-based methods to incorporate these features, resulting in significant accuracy gains for related languages.
