Abstract

Using bilingual dictionaries is a common way for query translation in Cross Language Information Retrieval. In this article, we focus on Vietnamese-English Bilingual Information Retrieval and present algorithms for query segmentation, word disambiguation and re-ranking to improve the dictionary-based query translation approach. An evaluation environment is implemented to verify and compare the application of proposed algorithms with the baseline method using manual translation.
