Evaluating Compound-to-compound Links in a Sub-sentence Aligned Bilingual Corpus through Example-based Element Recognition
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper will present an algorithm that evaluates links between one-word compounds and two-word compounds in a bilingual corpus that has been aligned at the sub-sentence level. The phenomenon of linking one-word compounds to multi-word compounds is common when English is being linked to other Germanic languages, and it is difficult to get the links right in the alignment process. The algorithm has been tested on a Swedish–English bilingual corpus with encouraging results.

Example-based Segmentation of Swedish Compounds in a Swedish–English bilingual corpus and the possibility of Evaluating Compound Links based on that Segmentation
In this paper an algorithm for segmenting Swedish compounds in a linking material is presented. The algorithm does the segmentation by looking at the example set by the corresponding English compound. The idea that this kind of segmentation can be used to evaluate the link between the two compounds is also tested. This would be possible because links where the algorithm cannot find suitable Swe...

متن کاملImprovement of Chemical Named Entity Recognition through Sentence-based Random Under-sampling and Classifier Combination
Chemical Named Entity Recognition (NER) is the basic step for consequent information extraction tasks such as named entity resolution, drug-drug interaction discovery, extraction of the names of the molecules and their properties. Improvement in the performance of such systems may affects the quality of the subsequent tasks. Chemical text from which data for named entity recognition is extracte...
