| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research is to establish technologies and environments for compilation and utilization of a terminology and a translation memory to support drafting and translating Japanese statutory sentences. We have complied a text corpus including all Japanese acts (10,067 acts) enacted after the World War II, a bilingual corpus including 1,624 acts (156,562 bilingual sentences) enacted during the period of U.S. occupation, and a translation memory including 259 statutes, i.e., acts, cabinet orders and regulations (147,119 bilingual sentences). In addition, we have developed methods for extracting legal terms by using shallow parsing (chunking) or document frequency, semantic category from bilingual terms, and definitions of statutory terms as well as semantic relations between them.
