Meliorated approach for extracting bilingual terminology from Wikipedia

With the demand of accurate and domain specific bilingual dictionaries, research in the field of automatic dictionary extraction has become popular. Due to lack of domain specific terminology in parallel corpora, extraction of bilingual terminology from Wikipedia (a corpus for knowledge extraction having a huge amount of articles, links within different languages, a dense link structure and a number of redirect pages) has taken up a new research in the field of bilingual dictionary creation. Our method not only analyzes interlanguage links along with redirect page titles and link text titles but also filters out inaccurate translation candidates using pattern matching. Score of each translation candidate is calculated using page parameters and then setting an appropriate threshold as compared to previous approach, which was solely, based on backward links. In our experiment, we proved the advantages of our approach compared to the traditional approach.
