Zusammenfassung

En este artculo se describe un metodo nuevo y sencillo para utilizar fuentes de informacion bilingue para el alineamiento de palabras en segmentos de texto paralelos. Este metodo puede ser utilizado al vuelo, ya que no requiere de entrenamiento. Ademas, puede ser utilizado con corpus comparables. Hemos comparado los resultados de nuestro metodo con los obtenidos por la herramienta GIZA++, ampliamente utilizada para el alineamiento de palabras, obteniendo unos resultados bastante similares.
