Abstract

In this paper, we present an evaluation of two different sentence alignment techniques. One is the well-known SIMR algorithm based on word correspondences on both sides of a bitext. The other one is the ALINOR algorithm, which is based on the similarity of the markup on both sides of a bitext. Both algorithms are accurate in 1-1 alignment, but ALINOR works slightly better in the case of N-M alignment.
