In this article, we report on our work using the STRAND system for mining parallel<BR>text on theWorldWideWeb, first reviewing the original algorithm and results and then presenting<BR>a set of significant enhancements. These enhancements include the use of supervised learning<BR>based on structural features of documents to improve classification performance, a new contentbased<BR>measure of translational equivalence, and adaptation of the system to take advantage of the<BR>Internet Archive for mining parallel text from theWeb on a large scale. Finally, the value of these<BR>techniques is demonstrated in the construction of a significant parallel corpus for a low-density<BR>language pair.<\/P><br \/>\n<P><U><FONT color=#810081>Philip Resnik\uff0cNoah A.
