Image illustration of Text using Natural Language Processing

Natural Language Processing Methods for Automatic Illustration of Text

The thesis describes methods for automatic creation of illustrations of natural-language text. The main focus of the work is to convert texts that describe sequences of events in a physical world into animated images. This is what we call text-to-scene conversion. The first part of the thesis describes Carsim, a system that automatically illustrates traffic accident newspaper reports written in...

Intelligent Construction Case Study Illustration System Using Natural Language Processing and Image Searching

With the rapid advancement in science and engineering disciplines, the amount of knowledge exploded. Therefore, it is more and more difficult for a single person to become an expert in multiple domains. In this regard, an intelligent illustration system is beneficial to help people quickly understand textual description of case studies in different domains. This is especially the case in constr...

Web Text Corpus for Natural Language Processing

Web text has been successfully used as training data for many NLP applications. While most previous work accesses web text through search engine hit counts, we created a Web Corpus by downloading web pages to create a topic-diverse collection of 10 billion words of English. We show that for context-sensitive spelling correction the Web Corpus results are better than using a search engine. For t...
