14
+ This dataset is designed for machine translation task, specifically jav->ind, min->ind, sun->ind, and vice versa. The data are taken
15
+
16
+ from sentences in Wikipedia.

21
+
22
+ Parallel corpora are necessary for multilingual researches especially in information retrieval (IR) and natural language processing (NLP). However, such corpora are hard to find, specifically for low-resources languages like ethnic
23
+
24
+ languages. Parallel corpora of ethnic languages were usually collected manually. On the other hand, Wikipedia as a free online encyclopedia is supporting more and more languages each year, including ethnic languages in Indonesia. It has
25
+
26
+ become one of the largest multilingual sites in World Wide Web that provides free distributed articles. In this paper, we explore a few sentence alignment methods which have been used before for another domain. We want to check whether
27
+
28
+ Wikipedia can be used as one of the resources for collecting parallel corpora of Indonesian and Javanese, an ethnic language in Indonesia. We used two approaches of sentence alignment by treating Wikipedia as both parallel corpora and
29
+
30
+ comparable corpora. In parallel corpora case, we used sentence length based and word correspondence methods. Meanwhile,
31
+
32
+ we used the characteristics of hypertext links from Wikipedia in comparable corpora case. After the experiments, we can
33
+
34
+ see that Wikipedia is useful enough for our purpose because both approaches gave positive results.
