A Lexico-Semantic Approach To The Structuring Of Terminology
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper discusses a number of implications of using either a conceptual approach or a lexico-semantic approach to terminology structuring, especially for interpreting data supplied by corpora for the purpose of building specialized dictionaries. A simple example, i.e., program, will serve as a basis for showing how relationships between terms are captured in both approaches. My aim is to demonstrate that truly conceptual approaches do not allow a flexible integration of terms and relationships between terms and that lexico-semantic approaches are more compatible with data gathered from corpora. I will also discuss some of the implications these approaches have for computational terminology and other corpus-based terminological endeavours.

A suggested Motivational Method for Teaching Scientific Terminology, With a Practical Example
Using a reductionist approach, the motivational method for teaching scientific terminology aims at breaking down terms and their definitions into separate components, i.e. morphemes and their semantic features, rather than establishing a connection between terms and their definitions as holistic units. In other words, the ultimate goal of this method is achieving “semantic motivation,” (as oppo...
متن کاملDetecting Semantic Relations Between Terms In Definitions
Terminology structuring aims to elicit semantic relations between the terms of a domain. We propose here to exploit definitions found in corpora to obtain such semantic relations. Definition typologies show that definitions can be introduced by different semantic relations, some of these relations being likely to structure terminologies. Our aim is therefore to mine “defining expressions” in do...
متن کاملCombining Vector Space Model and Multi Word Term Extraction for Semantic Query Refinement
In this paper, we target document ranking in a highly technical field with the aim to approximate a ranking that is obtained through an existing ontology (knowledge structure). We test and combine symbolic and vector space models (VSM). Our symbolic approach relies on shallow NLP and on internal linguistic relations between Multi-Word Terms (MWTs). Documents are ranked based on different semant...
متن کاملExtracting Aspects and Polarity from Patents
We describe an approach to terminology extraction from patent corpora that follows from a view of patents as “positive reviews” of inventions. As in aspect-based sentiment analysis, we focus on identifying not only the components of products but also the attributes and tasks which, in the case of patents, serve to justify an invention’s utility. These semantic roles (component, task, attribute)...
