Abstract
We propose a simple yet effective approach to learning bilingual word embeddings (BWEs) from non-parallel document-aligned data (based on the omnipresent skip-gram model), and its application to bilingual lexicon induction (BLI). We demonstrate the utility of the induced BWEs in the BLI task by reporting on benchmarking BLI datasets for three language pairs: (1) We show that our BWE-based BLI models significantly outperform the MuPTM-based and context-counting models in this setting, and obtain the best reported BLI results for all three tested language pairs; (2) We also show that our BWE-based BLI models outperform other BLI models based on recently proposed BWEs that require parallel data for bilingual training.
