This paper describes the implementation and system details of Klex, a finite-state transducer lexicon for the Korean language, developed using XRCE’s Xerox Finite State Tool (XF...
We describe our approach in constructing question answering systems, which involves natural language parsing enhanced with named entity extraction and part-of-speech tagging. Perf...
This paper discusses an information extraction (IE) system, Textract, in natural language (NL) question answering (QA) and examines the role of IE in QA application. It shows: (i)...
Abstract. This paper proposes a lexicon-constrained character model that combines both word and character features to solve complicated issues in Chinese morphological analysis. A ...
