Input Encoding

Submitted by meritxell.gonzalez on 25 January, 2013 - 18:05.

After the completion of the translation we detected a tricky bug in the data that affects the quality of the translation of the compounds, which is one of the strong points of our system.

The solution has been to encode all the text into UTF8 and retrain the baseline system.

Utrecht meeting notes

Submitted by meritxell.gonzalez on 1 October, 2012 - 12:55.

The patent documents were translated using the SMT baseline system. These documents were later annotated to be added to the retrieval databases.

In order to improve the retrieval accuracy, we have change the annotation approach. So now, the documents are first annotated and then are being translated keeping the semantic annotations in the target language.

Also, a subset of the documents will be translated with the best version of the hybrid system.
