We propose a dynamic programming algorithm for calculaing the similarity between two segmeuts of words of the same language. The similarity is considered as a vector whose coordinates refer to the levels of analysis of the segments. This algorithm is extremely efficient for retrieving the best example in Translation Memory systems. The calculus being constructive, it also gives the correspondences between the words of the two segments. This allows the extension of Translation Memory systems towards Example-based Machiue Translation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
