## Papers

1. **[Generating Phrasal and Sentential Paraphrases: A Survey of Data-Driven Methods](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/madnani-2010-generating-phrasal-sentential-paraphrases-survey/)** *(2010)* The survey covers paraphrase generation from data over two decades of work. It organises the methods by the resource they use: distributional similarity over one corpus; monolingual parallel corpora, where two translations of one source text give aligned sentences; monolingual comparable corpora, such as news on the…
2. **[Toward compact monotonically compositional interlingua using lexical aspect](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/dorr-1997-compact-monotonically-compositional-interlingua-lexical/)** *(1997)* The interlingua of the UNITRAN project has 191 main verb classes, 434 subclasses and 237 distinct lexical conceptual structures.
3. **[Machine Translation Divergences: A Formal Description and Proposed Solution](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/dorr-1994-machine-translation-divergences-formal-description/)** *(1994)* Translation divergences are cross-linguistic differences where the same meaning comes out in a differently shaped sentence, so a direct structure-to-structure transfer breaks down.
