Overview

One of the most important issues in cross language information retrieval is how to cross the language barrier between the query and the documents. Different translation resources have been studied for this purpose. In this research, authors study using Wikipedia for query translation by constructing a Wikipedia-based bilingual association dictionary. Authors use English and Persian Wikipedia inter-language links to align related titles and then mine word by word associations between the two languages using the extracted alignments. Authors use the mined word association dictionary for translating queries in Persian-English cross language information retrieval. Authors experimental results on Hamshari corpus show that the proposed method is effective in extracting word associations and that Persian Wikipedia is a promising translation resource. Using the association dictionary, authors can improve the pure dictionary-based method, where the only translation resource is a bilingual dictionary, by 33.6% and its recall by 26.2%.
