MULINEX: multilingual indexing, navigation and editing extensions for the world-wide web

The objective of the project is to provide multilingual search, retrieval and navigation functionalities for the WWW.

Abstract

(for dissemination) MULINEX is a fully implemented multilingual search and navigation system for the WWW. Users can formulate, expand and disambiguate queries, navigate the result set and read the retrieved documents by using only their native language. This multilingual functionality is achieved by the use of dictionary-based query translation, multilingual document categorisation and automatic translation of summaries and documents. The current prototype is the first system for multilingual information access which integrates language identification, categorisation, retrieval, summarisation and translation.
