Interpreting a novel modifier-noun phrase (e.g, licorice guitar) involves both the conceptual and lexical systems; one must access the concepts denoted by the words and select a relation (e.g., noun MADE OF modifier) to form a unified conceptual representation. We describe recent empirical work that demonstrates that the ease of interpreting a novel noun phrase is influenced by the availability...

A Corpus-based Analysis of Noun Phrase Complexity in Research Article Part-genres Applied Linguistics and Clinical Medicine

Anaphora resolution is one of the major problems in natural language processing. It is also one of the important tasks in machine translation and man/machine dialogue. We solve the problem by using surface expressions and examples. Surface expressions are the words in sentences which provide clues for anaphora resolution. Examples are linguistic data which are actually used in conversations and...

The performance of machine learning algorithms can be improved by combining the output of different systems. In this paper we apply this idea to the recognition of noun phrases. We generate different classifiers by using different representations of the data. By combining the results with voting techniques described in (Van Halteren et al., 1998) we manage to improve the best reported performan...
