JParaCrawl v3.0: A Large-scale English-Japanese Parallel Corpus

Understand

Most current machine translation models are mainly trained with parallel corpora, and their translation accuracy largely depends on the quality and quantity of the corpora.

• Although there are billions of parallel sentences for a few language pairs, effectively dealing with most language pairs is difficult due to a lack of publicly available parallel corpora.
• This paper creates a large parallel corpus for English-Japanese, a language pair for which only limited resources are available, compared to such resource-rich languages as English-German.
• It introduces a new web-based English-Japanese parallel corpus named JParaCrawl v3.0.
