JParaCrawl: A Large Scale Web-Based English-Japanese Parallel Corpus

Understand

Recent machine translation algorithms mainly rely on parallel corpora.

• However, since the availability of parallel corpora remains limited, only some resource-rich language pairs can benefit from them.
• We constructed a parallel corpus for English-Japanese, for which the amount of publicly available parallel corpora is still limited.
• We constructed the parallel corpus by broadly crawling the web and automatically aligning parallel sentences.
