Neural machine translation systems for low-resource languages often yield suboptimal results due to the limited availability of large parallel datasets. To address this issue, parallel corpora can be mined from the web. In a parallel corpus mining pipeline, two essential tasks are aligning web documents and aligning sentences. Effective approaches to these tasks involve obtaining vector representations of documents (or sentences) in both languages and determining alignment based on a semantic similarity scoring mechanism. Our research focused on optimizing the existing solutions and finding novel techniques for this.
With regard to our work, 2 research papers have been published.
