Description
xv, 304 pages : illustrations; 24 cm.
Summary
Eighteen contributions explore current developments in the research of corpus-based natural language processing (a field in computational linguistics that uses large blocks of words to solve problems such as part-of-speech tagging, word sense disambiguation, parsing, machine translation, information retrieval, and discourse analysis). Authors examine such topics as example-based sense tagging of running Chinese text, statistical augmentation of a Chinese machine-readable dictionary, iterative alignment of syntactic structures for a bilingual corpus, and comparing the retrieval performances of English and Japanese text databases.
