Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we investigated what kinds of contents are collected from existing language resources; corpora and clarified what kind of information can be obtained from texts. We examined the relationship between text and information by experiments on how readers recognized the contents from text. We proposed the useful information and their practical presentation order for glossaries, explanation for people without knowledge, and appropriate summary of various documents.
