WAT allows to align parallel texts using various aligning engines:
- JAM : Written in Perl. Allows to align more than two languages at the same time.
- Alinea Lite : Written in Prolog, a long time ago. Slow but robust.
-
LF Aligner : a project leaded by Andras Farkas, based on Daniel Varga's Hunalign.
-
YASA : Originally created by Philippe Langlais, it was reimplemented by Alexandre Patry. It was reborn as yasa as part of improvements made during Fethi Lamraoui's masters thesis.
