| الوصف: | Cross-lingual annotations of legislative texts enable us to explore major themes covered in multilingual legal data and are a key facilitator of semantic similarity when searching for similar documents. Multilingual probabilistic topic models have recently emerged as a group of semi-supervised machine learning models that can be used to perform thematic explorations on collections of texts in multiple languages. However, these approaches require theme-aligned training data to create a language-independent space, which limits the amount of scenarios where this technique can be used. In this work, we provide an unsupervised document similarity algorithm based on hierarchies of multi-lingual concepts to describe topics across languages. The algorithm does not require parallel or comparable corpora, or any other type of translation resource. Experiments performed on the English, Spanish, French and Portuguese editions of JCR-Acquis corpora reveal promising results on classifying and sorting documents by similar content.
