Application ID: 13710060

Base Claim:
1. An electronic device for identifying a set of parallel texts from a corpora of texts, the device comprising: a display capable of displaying a user interface; a processor; a memory in electronic communication with the processor, the memory configured with instructions for performing steps including: identifying a corpora containing two or more parallel texts; receiving a selection of a text fragment in a first language; performing a query on the corpora based on the text fragment to identify a set of parallel texts that include the text fragment in the first language and a substantially equivalent translation of the text fragment in a second language; wherein the identifying the set of parallel texts comprises performing a syntactic and semantic analysis of the text fragments; the syntactic and semantic analysis of the fragments comprises building a language-independent semantic structure for one or more sentence of the text fragments; and establishing a correspondence between the language-independent semantic structures built for said parallel texts; determining a ranking for the identified parallel texts based on the text fragments, wherein the ranking is based on a frequency of the text fragments occurring in the set of parallel texts; and displaying on the user interface the ranked set of parallel texts.

Claim 6:
6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein ranking the identified parallel texts based on the text fragment includes one or more of: estimating a frequency of the identified parallel texts based on the text fragment; estimating a value related to relevance to a field of interest; estimating a value related to ratings or penalties of a translation of the text fragment; and estimating a ratio of percentage of words with a corresponding word in a translation of the text fragment in a corresponding fragment found in the dictionary to a count of words in the respective fragments.
