Abstract
VELOSO, Joana; SIMOES, Alberto and IRIARTE S., Álvaro. Extraction of restricted lexical combinations by detecting non-compositionality of multiword expressions. Diacrítica [online]. 2016, vol.30, n.1, pp.163-180. ISSN 0807-8967.
In this article an evaluation of a method for extracting restricted lexical combinations from parallel corpora by detecting non-compositionality of multiword expressions in translation will be presented. This method presupposes that by finding sequences of words (word bigrams are used) whose translation does not follow a simple word-to-word conversion of the component words, a collocation is probably present.
