Most of existing text categorization techniques deal with monolingual documents (i.e., all documents are written in one language) during the text categorization model learning and category assignment (or prediction). However, with the globalization of business environments and advances in Internet technology, an organization or individual often generates/acquires and subsequently archives documents in different languages, thus creating the need for cross-lingual text categorization (CLTC). Existing studies on CLTC focus on the prediction-corpus translation-based approach that lacks of a systematic mechanism for reducing translation noises; thus, limiting their cross-lingual categorization effectiveness. Motivated by the needs of providing more effective CLTC support, we design a training-corpus translation-based CLTC approach. Using the prediction-corpus translation-based approach as the performance benchmark, our empirical evaluation results show that our proposed CLTC approach achieves significantly better classification effectiveness than the benchmark approach does in both Chinese
