Abstract：This paper focuses on extracting translation pairs from unaligned Chinese-English bilingual corpora. First ,it introduces two methods proposed by Dr. Pascale Fung. Then ,we revises the latter one to satisfy the need of real texts. The experiment results show the effectiveness of our method and it can be applied widely in many NLP applications such as phrase extraction ,bilingual lexicography ,etc.
