Abstract: Machine Translation (MT) between the Thai and English languages has been a challenging research topic in natural language processing. Most research has been done on English to Thai machine translation, but not the other way around. This paper presents a Thai to English Machine Translation System that translates a Thai sentence into interlingua of a Thai LFG tree using LFG grammar and a bottom up parser. The Thai LFG tree is then transformed into the corresponding English LFG tree by pattern matching and node transformation. Finally, an equivalent English sentence is created using structural information prescribed by the English LFG tree. Based on results of experiments designed to evaluate the performance of the proposed system, it can be stated that the system has been proven to be effective in providing a useful translation from Thai to English.
Abstract: This paper presents a supervised clustering algorithm,
namely Grid-Based Supervised Clustering (GBSC), which is able to
identify clusters of any shapes and sizes without presuming any
canonical form for data distribution. The GBSC needs no prespecified
number of clusters, is insensitive to the order of the input
data objects, and is capable of handling outliers. Built on the
combination of grid-based clustering and density-based clustering,
under the assistance of the downward closure property of density
used in bottom-up subspace clustering, the GBSC can notably reduce
its search space to avoid the memory confinement situation during its
execution. On two-dimension synthetic datasets, the GBSC can
identify clusters with different shapes and sizes correctly. The GBSC
also outperforms other five supervised clustering algorithms when
the experiments are performed on some UCI datasets.
