| "text": "A MultiWord Expression (MWE) is a combination of words for which syntactic or semantic properties of the whole expression cannot be obtained from its components (Sag et al., 2002) . Such units could be collocations, compound words, named entities, idioms, etc. They constitute an important part of the lexicon of any natural language (Jackendoff, 1997) . Bilingual lexicons of MWEs play a vital role in Machine Translation (MT) and Cross-Language Information Retrieval (CLIR) because for a specific domain the specialized vocabulary is largely dominated by MWEs. The manual construction of these lexicons is costly and time-consuming. Word alignment approaches are often used to automatically construct bilingual lexicons from parallel corpora. Several word alignment approaches have been explored (Daille et al., 1994 ; Barbu, 2004) and many automatic word alignment tools are available, such as Giza++ (Och and Ney, 2000) . However, most of these tools are efficient only to align single words (Fraser and Marcu, 2007) . In this paper, we describe and evaluate a hybrid approach to automatically extract and align MWEs from an English-French parallel corpus. In contrast to traditional approaches for MWEs alignment which consist in firstly identifying monolingual MWEs candidates and secondly applying alignment to find bilingual correspondences, our approach extracts and aligns MWEs in a one-step process.", |

| "text": "In Natural Language Processing (NLP), a multiword expression refers to a non-compositional sequence of words whose exact and unambiguous meaning, connotation and syntactic properties cannot be derived from the meaning or connotation of its components (Sag et al., 2002) . MWEs are frequently used in written texts and constitute a significant part of the language lexicon. Sag et al. (2002) classify multiword expressions into two main categories: lexicalized phrases and institutionalized phrases. Lexicalized phrases \"have at least partially idiosyncratic syntax or semantics, or contain \"words\" which do not occur in isolation\". Institutionalized phrases are \"semantically and syntactically compositional, but statistically idiosyncratic\".", |

They can be either semantically idiosyncratic such as \"brush up on\" or compositional such as \"take after\", \"look out\", \"go back\" and \"run over\".

| "text": "Automatic identification of MWEs from texts is a real challenge in Natural Language Processing. This is due to the diversity and the complexity of their lexical, syntactic and semantic characteristics (Moon, 1998; Riehemann 2001; Sag et al. 2002) . Two approaches have emerged to extract bilingual MWEs from parallel corpora. The first approach consists of acquiring translations of MWEs from parallel corpora in one-step (DeNero and Klein, 2008; Marchand and Semmar 2011) . DeNero and Klein (2008) consider, on the one hand, MWEs as phrases composed of contiguous sequences of words that encapsulate enough context to be translatable, and on the other hand, that the problem of finding an optimal alignment between bilingual MWEs can be cast as an integer linear program. Marchand and Semmar (2011) used an approach which followed to some extent that of DeNero and Klein (2008) while they added two scoring functions based on co-occurrence and a seed single word bilingual dictionary. The second approach for extracting bilingual MWEs from parallel corpora, firstly, identifies monolingual MWEs candidates and then applies alignment techniques to find bilingual correspondences (Daille et al., 1994; Blank 2000; Barbu 2004; Deng et al., 2005; Samuelsson et al., 2007; MacCartney et al., 2008; Lefever et al., 2009; Semmar et al., 2011; Bouamor et al., 2012) . In the second approach, MWEs extraction can be processed by using symbolic methods based on linguistic patterns (Dagan et al., 1994; Okita et al., 2010; Bouamor et al., 2012) , or, through statistical approaches which use automatic measures to rank MWEs candidates (Pearce 2002; Evert and Krenn 2005; Zhang et al. 2006; Villavicencio et al. 2007; Vintar et al., 2008) . Finally, MWEs extraction can be done by using hybrid approaches, which combine statistical information with some kinds of linguistic information such as syntactic and semantic properties (Baldwin and Villavicencio 2002; Van de Cruys and Villada Moiron 2007; Caseli et al., 2010) . Dagan and Church (1994) proposed to use syntactic analysis to extract terminology. MWEs are then extracted by grouping linguistically related terms. In the same way, Okita et al. (2010) proposed to link across two languages MWEs according to their syntactic and lexical information. Tufis and Ion (2007) introduce a linguistic approach in which they claim that MWEs keep in most cases the same morpho-syntactic structure in the source and target languages. Statistical approaches also have proven to be useful in collecting bilingual MWEs from parallel corpora. Kupiec (1993) introduced the use of machine learning algorithms such as the Expectation Maximization (EM) to extract MWEs. Similarly, Vintar and Fiser (2008) proposed to extract bilingual MWEs by translating MWEs from a well-known language (English) to a low resource language (Slovene) by using machine translation. They have shown that their translation-based approach performs better than using linguistic approaches. However, they did not combine these two kind of approaches. The combination of such approaches enables to extract finer MWEs. In this way, Wu and Chang (2004) and later Boulaknadel et al. (2008) , proposed to use syntactic and statistical analysis to extract bilingual MWEs from a parallel corpus. The main aspect of their approach is a monolingual parsing to extract MWEs combined with statistical detection in each language, then, they confront candidates from each side to find bilingual MWEs. Other approaches proposed to use machine translation to translate MWEs candidates found with a syntactic analysis (Seretan and Wehrli, 2007) .", |

It clearly appears that keeping only MWEs candidates that have equivalent morpho-syntactic patterns in source and target languages has had a significant impact on the precision of the alignment. This filtering step certainly has improved the precision but the recall has dropped. We observed after aligning some sentences that when both sentence structures are similar, our MWEs aligner performs well. The segmentation is word to word or MWE to MWE depending on what is more frequent in the corpus. Moreover, the surjective formulation of the problem allows our approach to detect expressions in two parts. We can see in the following example that both the English words \"role\" and \"play\" are linked to the French word \"r\u00f4le\" (Figure 1 ). We have also observed some improvements due the information provided by the bilingual dictionary, as presented in Figure 2 . In this example, the bilingual dictionary provides the alignments: \"be/\u00eatre\", \"decided/d\u00e9cid\u00e9\" and \"there/y\". Therefore, our MWEs aligner reconstructs the whole expression \"is to be decided on there/doit y \u00eatre d\u00e9cid\u00e9\". Moreover, the links \"concrete/concret\" and \"programme/programme\" are consolidated by the bilingual dictionary. Finally, it should be noted that the link \"is to be decided on there/doit y \u00eatre d\u00e9cid\u00e9\" is abandonned after the step of filtering because no morpho-syntactic pattern matches this expression.", |

| "text": "This paper presented, on the one hand, a hybrid approach to extract and align MWEs from a parallel corpus in a onestep process, and on the other hand, an experimental evaluation of the impact of integrating the results of this MWEs alignment approach on the performance of the statistical machine translation system Moses. We have more specifically shown that adding external knowledge (bilingual lexicons and filtering linguistic patterns) to the co-occurrence scoring function improves significantly the precision of the MWEs alignment approach. We have also showed that the results of the SMT system Moses can be improved by rescoring its n-best translations using a LSTM language model. This study offers several open issues for future work. First, we expect to use machine learning approaches to extend the morpho-syntactic patterns to take into account other forms of MWEs. The second perspective is to explore the integration of bilingual MWEs into other machine translation systems such as neural machine translation ones. We also expect to adapt our MWEs alignment approach to new language pairs such as English-Arabic and French-Arabic.", |
