Improving Cross-Lingual Enterprise Information Access

• In this position paper it is argued that cross-lingual enterprise information access is underdeveloped and underexploited. Some use cases are presented. It is pointed out that very little of the extensive research findings in cross-lingual and multilingual information retrieval have penetrated enterprise search. It is claimed that with little investment in R&D, it would be relatively easy to create a re-usable cross-lingual enterprise search module to automatically and reliably translate search queries (one of the most used approach in Cross-Lingual Information Retrieval) from a foreign language to a target language in order to retrieve relevant documents.
