A mining system applies queries to retrieve result items from an unstructured resource. The unstructured resource may correspond to a repository of network-accessible resource items. The result items that are retrieved may correspond to text segments (e.g., sentence fragments) associated with resource items. The mining system produces a structured training set by filtering the result items and establishing respective pairs of result items. A training system can use the training set to produce a statistical translation model. The translation model can be used in a monolingual context to translate between semantically-related phrases in a single language. The translation model can also be used in a bilingual context to translate between phrases expressed in two respective languages. Various applications of the translation model are also described.
