We have adopted the T&B proposal for ranking. T&B suggests The figure given in Table 1 is a report of the ranking candidate translation based on target empirical study performed on English-Hindi essentially corpus frequency.

In this way the number of syntactic genitive construct even when it can have other more accurate translation. Our experiment shows that a nominal compound is well accepted as a genitive construct in Hindi in 59% of cases. This is an interesting compound in the given context, that is, the finding which we have used in designing the sentence in which it has occurred.

We first acquire all possible translations for consider all words for all senses of the possible dictionary resources. Then we take component nouns and attempt to translate all of them using a bilingual dictionary the translations to all English words of a synset, number of translation candidates will be if there is one. For example, we got the following translations for the two synsets searching for those candidates that are not <„road‟, „route‟> from bilingual dictionaries: relevant for the English NC in the given context.

Once we look into a bilingual dictionary, again we may come across many Translation Candidates

For We have performed the corpus search on a example, the word „border‟ (a member of Hindi indexed corpus of 28 million words. the synset of „border‟) has one equivalent For ranking, a reference ranking based on jhaalar in the bilingual dictionary that is the frequency of occurrence of the translate used in the domain of „decoration‟ and not candidates in full in the TL corpora is taken „location‟. We would like to discard such as baseline. To improve on the baseline, a equivalents. Otherwise the whole attempt of stronger ranking measure is borrowed from using WSD tool on the source language side Baldwin and Tanaka (2004). It rates a given will be lost. The ideal situation would have translation candidate according to corpus been to have a mapping from the synset id translation and its parts in the context of the Proceedings of ICON-2009: 7th International Conference on Natural Language Processing, Macmillan Publishers, India. Also accessible from http://ltrc.iiit.ac.in/proceedings/ICON-2009 measure is called interpolated CTQ metric The motivation for this approach is two fold: that extracts the frequency counts from the a) a word occurs mostly in its default sense which is listed as the first sense in any lexicon; b) if the input word is not available in a bilingual dictionary for substitution, a CTQ (w1H , w2H , t) = αp(w1H , w2H , t) + synset gives us other equivalent words. This increases the robustness of the system. The third method is the one we have adopted for the present task – using a WSD tool on the of occurrence of template t with w1 and w2 appropriate sense of the given word in that as its instances and βp(w1H , t)p(w2H , context. The purpose of trying out various t)p(t) is the probability of occurrence of translation template t with w1 as its instance at one time multiplied by the probability of brings in any improvement to the overall occurrence of translation template t with w2 performance of the translator tool. The table as its instance at another time multiplied by below shows that it does. The pre-processed the occurrence of translation template t. Naturally the first term will be given higher substitution is not humanly analyzed data priority than the second term. The result but is actually obtained as the output of presented in the next section will show that the incorporation of frequency of occurrence of βp(w1H , t)p(w2H , t) has distinctly has produced 80% accurate case for nominal compound disambiguation7. The results of corpus search of the translation candidates are given in the following two tables. The 5.0 Result and Analysis
baseline frequency model performs in the various experiments performed as part of improvement in performance as we go from baseline ranking method to CTQ method of nominal compounds into Hindi equivalents and the result obtained for each method is presented at table 1 and table 2. As part of the first method we have not done any word words of source language NC; on the contrary we have straightaway used the Table 5: Ranking using Baseline Frequency Hindi equivalents.

However no clue is available to determine which type of Hindi have, therefore, adopted a corpus search found out that adjectival templates are hard from noun is a complex derivational process in Hindi. It does not only involve attaching an adjectival suffix on the noun but also many a time requires a change in the vowel The recall of this experiment was very low. of the stem. In the present work, we have includes the correct generation of adjectival verify on the development data whether the form from the modifier nouns so that correct templates for „Adjective Noun‟ construct corpus search can legitimately be translated as a genitive construct. We found that the approach is that a translation if it exists in the corpus will never be missed. Therefore Therefore we incorporated this as a default accuracy of translation will depends largely translation case for our system. Whenever a corpus search for a translation candidate searched for the translation candidates. fails, we assign a genitive translation for that nominal compound. This results in a steep 7. References
