Basic Settings

In the basic settings, you can determine how crossMining is to operate when creating lexica.

First, you can determine that crossMining select the parameters for the generation of statistical lexica. In this case, crossMining will select the optimum number of iterations for phase 1 and 2 of the lexicon creation.

If this option is activated, the section for setting the iterations in the Advanced tab will be disabled – see Advanced Settings.

Moreover, you can determine the maximum size of the training data, i.e. the maximum number of translation units/crossTank entries. Enter the desired number in the input field or use the arrow icons icn_cMining_anzahl-vergroessern and icn_cMining_anzahl-verringern. If there are more translation units that the specified maximum, the translation units will be used in descending chronological order, starting with the newest (last created) translation units.

If you enable the respective option, all available translation units will be considered by the calculation.

For the creation of statistical lexica, we recommend using maximum one million translation units for each language direction.

You can also determine whether the terms that already exist in the respective languages in crossTerm are to be included when creating the lexicon. In this case, all terms will be used as additional crossTank units and included in the probability calculation. Including the terms can deliver better results, especially when using the auto-completion function.

If your computer has multiple CPU cores, you can select the cores to be used when working with crossMining by clicking the desired core in the Processor Affinity area. When selecting CPU cores, remember that some of the steps performed by crossMining consume a great amount of resources due to their complexity – especially the creation of statistical lexica. Therefore, selecting all cores is only recommended if the computer does not execute any other (important) programs or processes while creating the lexicon.
