| Challenge: | We describe methods to create the largest publicly available parallel corpora by crawling the web . parallel corpus is essential for building highquality machine translation systems . |
| Approach: | They describe methods to create largest publicly available parallel corpora by crawling web sites . they empirically compare alternative methods and publish benchmark data sets . |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods improve state-of-the-art results on common benchmarks, the authors show . the pipeline has been tested on Russian, Sinhala, Nepali, Tagalog, Swahili, and Somali . |
