| Challenge: | Existing methods to generate semantic processors for languages lacking hand curated data are inefficiently slow and unaffordable in terms of human resources and economic costs. |
| Approach: | They propose to use statistical word alignments to project annotations from multiple sources to a target language. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is effective to transport NER annotations across languages . it can generate a good statistical model for a new target language . |
