1. A computer implemented method for finding correspondence between terms in two different languages, the method comprising the steps of:

  • creating a technical term set in a first language, a general term set in the first language, a technical term set in a second language and a general term set in the second language;

    saving, in a storage unit of the computer, the term set of the first language, the general term set in the first language, the technical term set in the second language and the general term in the second language;

    creating at least two bipartite graphs, wherein the first bipartite graph connects the technical term set and the general term set of the first language to each other with links on basis of corpus information, wherein the second bipartite graph connects the general term set and technical term set of the second language to each other with links the basis of corpus information, and wherein each of the links is weighted by a degree of association between terms;

    creating a third bipartite graph by creating links between general terms in the first language and general terms in the second language by using a translation dictionary between general terms in the first language and general terms in the second language, each of the links being weighted by a degree of association between terms;

    creating an association matrix M corresponding to the bipartite graphs between the technical term set and the general term set connected in each respective language and the bipartite graph between the general terms in the first language and the general terms in the second language;

    calculating a similarity matrix Q by calculation of an inverse matrix of (I−

    cM), where c is a positive number smaller than one; and

    outputting correspondence between the technical term set in the first language and the technical term set in the second language on the basis of predetermined components of the similarity matrix Q,wherein at least one step is executed on the computer.
