Natural Language Analysis Using a Network Model - Modification Deciding Network -

We have developed an original analyzing method using the network structure called the MDN. The network is similar to that of a neural network. In the MDN, all of the modification candidates can be compared in parallel, and it can decide the most appropriate interpretation effectively. It allows high quality of natural language analysis, and high analyzing speed. In this paper we will describe Japanese sentence analysis using the MDN, and then describe discussions about the MDN, comparing with sequential analysis, neural networks, and interactive analysis.
