Bilingual dictionaries are often limited in their coverage * of named- entities, numbers, technical terms and acronyms. There is a need to * generate translations for these "on-the-fly" or at query time. * * A significant proportion of OOV words are named entities and technical terms. * Typical analyses find around 50% of OOV words to be named entities. Yet these * can be the most important words in the queries. Cross language retrieval * performance (average precision) reduced more than 50% when named entities in the * queries were not translated. * * When the query language and the document language share the same alphabet it may * be sufficient to use the OOV word as its own translation. However, when the two * languages have different alphabets, the query term must somehow be rendered in * the orthography of the other language. The process of converting a word from one * orthography into another is called transliteration. * * Foreign words often occur in Arabic text as transliteration. This is the case for * many categories of foreign words, not just proper names but also technical terms * such as caviar, telephone and internet. * * Example: * <code> * include('./I18N/Arabic.php'); * $obj = new I18N_Arabic('Transliteration'); * * $ar_word_1 = $obj->en2ar($en_word_1); * $en_word_2 = $obj->ar2en($ar_word_2); * </code> * * @category I18N * @package I18N_Arabic * @author Khaled Al-Sham'aa <khaled@ar-php.org> * @copyright 2006-2016 Khaled Al-Sham'aa * * @license LGPL <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.txt> * @link http://www.ar-php.org */ /** * This PHP class transliterate English words into Arabic * * @category I18N * @package I18N_Arabic * @author Khaled Al-Sham'aa <khaled@ar-php.org> * @copyright 2006-2016 Khaled Al-Sham'aa * * @license LGPL <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.txt> * @link http://www.ar-php.org */ class I18N_Arabic_Transliteration { private static $_arFinePatterns = array("/'+/u", "/([\- ])'/u", '/(.)#/u');
