Abstract
This paper integrates five linguistic resources, including Cilin, a Chinese-English dictionary, ASBC corpus, SemCor, and WordNet, to construct a Chinese-English WordNet. The result is employed in Chinese-English information retrieval. Under TREC-6 text collection, TREC topics 301-350, and Smart information retrieval system, the model for CLIR achieves 69.23% of monolingual information retrieval. It also gains 10.02% increase relative to a model that resolves translation ambiguity and target polysemy together using a Chinese-English dictionary.
