چکیده
The aim of this study is to identify idiomatic expressions in English using the measure perplexity. assumption that cause higher perplexity than literal given a reference text. Perplexity our calculated based on n-grams (i) PoS tags, (ii) tokens, and (iii) thematic roles within boundaries sentence. In setting study, we observed no contexts (i), manages distinguish from literals. We postulate larger, extra-sentential should be used for determination addition, number reduced smaller basic order avaiod an uniform distribution n-grams.

Perplexed Bayes Classifier
Naive Bayes classifiers estimate posterior probabilities poorly (Zhang, 2004). In this paper, we propose a modification to the Naive Bayes classification algorithm which improves the classifier’s posterior probability estimates without affecting its performance. Since the modification involves the use of the reciprocal of the perplexity of the class-conditional feature probabilities, we call th...
متن کاملUnderstanding Idioms
We describe a language understanding model in which idioms, like other units of linguistic knowledge, are treated as constructions linking elements of form with elements of meaning. They may also, however, invoke additional metaphorical mappings that can actively constrain both the interpretation and acceptability of idiomatic expressions. A wide variety of idiomatic phenomena, including compos...

This paper discusses the t reatment of fixed word expressions developed for our ITS-2 FrenchEnglish translation system. This t reatment makes a clear distinction between compounds i.e. mult iword expressions of X°-level in which the chunks are adjacent and idiomatic phrases i.e. mult iword expressions of phrasal categories, where the chunks are not necessarily adjacent. In our system, compounds...
