Integration with external tools
GIZA++ is the only external tool that needs to be available to PEXACC (see the “System
requirements” section). GIZA++ is configured by a file called “pdataextract-gizapp.gizacfg”
which is distributed along with PEXACC. It is a standard GIZA++ configuration file minus
the dynamic information (“.snt” and “.vcb” files) supplied by PEXACC at run time. It needs
not be erased between runs.

2.6
A ME parallel sentence extractor tool
2.6.1
Overview and purpose of the tool
This tool is built to extract parallel sentences or phrases from comparable corpus. A maximal
entropy method (Munteanu and Marcu 2005) was applied to classify each potential aligned
sentence/phrase pair as parallel or non-parallel. User could extract their own parallel data
with any language pair. In addition, users are able to train their own maximal entropy (ME)
model by providing numbers of samples.
2.6.2
Changes from previous version
The updated version of the ME parallel sentence extractor allows users to train their own
models and contains an updated feature set. As the updated version contains new use cases,
the execution sequences from the last version won’t work in the new version. Users must take
this change into account when updating to the new version.
