Extracting Clusters of Specialist Terms from Unstructured Text
نویسنده
چکیده
Automatically identifying related specialist terms is a difficult and important task required to understand the lexical structure of language. This paper develops a corpus-based method of extracting coherent clusters of satellite terminology — terms on the edge of the lexicon — using co-occurrence networks of unstructured text. Term clusters are identified by extracting communities in the cooccurrence graph, after which the largest is discarded and the remaining words are ranked by centrality within a community. The method is tractable on large corpora, requires no document structure and minimal normalization. The results suggest that the model is able to extract coherent groups of satellite terms in corpora with varying size, content and structure. The findings also confirm that language consists of a densely connected core (observed in dictionaries) and systematic, semantically coherent groups of terms at the edges of the lexicon.

متن کاملExtracting Data Records from Unstructured Biomedical Full Text
In this paper, we address the problem of extracting data records and their attributes from unstructured biomedical full text. There has been little effort reported on this in the research community. We argue that semantics is important for record extraction or finer-grained language processing tasks. We derive a data record template including semantic language models from unstructured text and ...

Aim: Automatic information retrieval is based on the assumption that texts contain content or structural elements that can be used in word sense disambiguation and thereby improving the effectiveness of the results retrieved. Homographs are among the words requiring sense disambiguation. Depending on their roles and positions in texts, homograph contexts could be divided to different types, wit...
