Document Clustering using Compound Words

Document clustering is a kind of text data mining and organization technique that automatically groups related documents into clusters. Traditionally single words occurring in the documents are identified to determine the similarities among documents. In this work, we investigate using compound words as features for document clustering. Our experimental results demonstrate that using compound w...

Associative asymmetry of compound words.

Early verbal-memory researchers assumed participants represent memory of a pair of unrelated items with 2 independent, separately modifiable, directional associations. However, memory for pairs of unrelated words (A-B) exhibits associative symmetry: a near-perfect correlation between accuracy on forward (A →?) and backward (?← B) cued recall. This was viewed as arguing against the independent-a...

Compound words and structure in the lexicon

The structure of lexical entries and the status of lexical decomposition remain controversial. In the psycholinguistic literature, one aspect of this debate concerns the psychological reality of the morphological complexity difference between compound words (teacup) and single words (crescent). The present study investigates morphological decomposition in compound words using visual lexical dec...
