We describe practical and cost-effective solutions for automatic Cross-Lingual Text Categorization, both in case a sufficient number of training examples is available for each new language and in the case that for some language no training examples are available. Experimental results of the bi-lingual classification of the ILO corpus (with documents in English and Spanish) are obtained using bi-lingual training, terminology translation and profile-based translation.application/pdfeng© Springer The final publication is available at Springer via http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-45175-4_13.info:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObjecthttp://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-45175-4_13info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
