Research studies project report ; no. CS-09-08 A research study submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Computer Science, School of Engineering and Technology Research Studies Project Report (M.Eng.) - Asian Institute of Technology, 2009 The development of the World Wide Web and associated technologies has led to an enormous increase in the availability of content in multiple languages. Therefore research in the field o f Information Retrieval (IR) in recent years has focused on problem s related to cross language information retrieval (CLIR) issues. This allows the user who makes a query in one language to access relevant Information in other languages, which is m ore beneficial and convenient than using multiple monolingual IR system s. The objective of this re search work was to develop a CLIR fo r the languages of the Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS), including: Myanmar, Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese and Lao (Laotian). T he prototype system used multiple dictionaries f or translations, and the Solar API for indexing and retrieval. The precision and usability of the system were evaluated by students from the GM S countries. T he overall result of the precision was found to be approximately 60 % in the Myanmar, Thai, Vietnamese, and Lao languages, but only 30% in the case of the Chinese language. Areas for future improvement of the system are the dictionaries, and the text segmentation f or Chinese Unicode.
