| Research Abstract |
The goal of this project was to provide the systems that can acquire knowledge on terminology from texts in a semi-automatic manner. In order to accomplish the goal, we have developed the following three systems.
1. Central Database for Terminology : We have created a database system for terminology by integrating the text/lexicon database developed by EDR and the programming language LiLFeS, which was developed at University of Tokyo for easy and flexible treatment linguistic entities By this system, we can perform a systematic maintenance of the knowledge acquired by the following two systems.
2. Systems for term recognition : The research group in the NACSIS introduced a statistical metric to identify technical terminology in texts, and built the programs that can recognize terms using this metric. The group in University of Tokyo attacked the same problem in a different perspective, and succeeded in providing a term recognition method based on character n-grams. Those programs are integrated so that they can work as a front end of the database system described in 1.
3. Systems for acquiring ontological knowledge on terms : The research group in University of Tokyo developed the programs for obtaining semantic classifications of words according to surface clues appearing in texts. The Matsushita research group developed a similar technique using deeper syntactic structures of texts. Those systems were applied to the documents in Genome texts, the news articles about stock markets and so on.
