Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for recognizing an idiomatic expression using phrase alignment of a parallel corpus, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method extracting an idiom candidate expression using phrase alignment information of a parallel corpus and measuring an idiomatic expression index for each candidate idiomatic expression in order to recognize an idiomatic expression, thereby correcting errors in the measurement of translation entropy and in the extraction of a representative target word, as well as enhancing the accuracy of recognizing an idiomatic expression.
