An Open Distributed Architecture for Reuse and Integration of Heterogeneous NLP Components
نویسندگان
چکیده
The shift from Computational Linguistics to Language Engineering is indicative of new trends in NLP. This paper reviews two NLP engineering problems: reuse and integration, while relating these concerns to the larger context of applied NLP. It presents a software architecture which is geared to support the development of a variety of large-scale NLP applications: Information Retrieval, Corpus Processing, Multilingual MT, and integration of Speech Components.

متن کاملFederal Open Agent System Platform
Open Agent System platform based on High Level Architecture is firstly proposed to support the application involving heterogeneous agents. The basic idea is to develop different wrappers for different agent systems, which are wrapped as federates to join a federation. The platform is based on High Level Architecture and the advantages for this open standard are naturally inherited, such as syst...

متن کاملTowards Reusable NLP Components
We propose a methodology for transforming NLP modules into reusable components that can be integrated it into a distributed and open architecture. We illustrate the methodology by showing the adaptations needed to transform an LTAG parser into a bundle of parsing and lexical services.
