Assigning textual names to sets of geographic coordinates
NameSet is a system that translates a set of geographic coordinates into a textual name based on the geographic regions where the coordinates occur. One possible application of NameSet is to concisely present the geographical scope of a set of geo-referenced observations to a human user. Another application is to generate text to depict a set of coordinates that appear on a web site – text that...
متن کاملAssigning Belief Scores to Names in Queries
Assuming that the goal of a person name query is to find references to a particular person, we argue that one can derive better relevance scores using probabilities derived from a language model of personal names than one can using corpus based occurrence frequencies such as inverse document frequency (idf). We present here a method of calculating person name match probability using a language ...
متن کاملUsing Machine Learning for Assigning Indices to Textual Cases
This paper reports preliminary work on developing methods automatically to index cases described in text so that a case-based reasoning system can reason with them. We are employing machine learning algorithms to classify full-text legal opinions in terms of a set of predefined concepts. These factors, representing factual strengths and weaknesses in the case, are used in the casebased argument...
متن کاملTextual Similarity based on Proper Names
Proper names represent about 10% of English or French newspaper articles. Their quantity and informational quality is already used in different Information Extraction systems. Proper names have widely been studied in the MUC conferences designed to promote research in Information Extraction. We have created our own named entity extraction tool based on a linguistic description with automata. Th...
متن کاملApproximate String Matching for Geographic Names and Personal Names
The problem of matching strings allowing errors has recently gained importance, considering the increasing volume of online textual data. In geotechnologies, approximate string matching algorithms find many applications, such as gazetteers, address matching, and geographic information retrieval. This paper presents a novel method for approximate string matching, developed for the recognition of...
