Backward beam search for dependency analysis of Japanese is proposed. As dependencies normally go from left to right in Japanese, it is effective to analyze sentences backwards (f...
This research looks at the effects of word order and segmentation on translation retrieval performance for an experimental Japanese-English translation memory system. We implement...
In this paper, we present a solution to the problem of generating Japanese numeral classifiers using semantic classes from an ontology. Most nouns must take a numeral classifier w...
Multi-word terms are traditionally identified using statistical techniques or, more recently, using hybrid techniques combining statistics with shallow linguistic information. Al)...
A deterministic finite state transducer is a fast device for analyzing strings. It takes O(n) time to analyze a string of length n. In this paper, an application of this technique...
