چکیده

Sophisticated Natural Language Processing (NLP) Tools have been developed over the last few decades for many languages. For example, the ChaSen Morphological Analyzer and the KNP Parser for Japanese; the SWATH Segmenter for Thai; and CRL-New Mexico’s Segmenter for Chinese are being widely used by NLP researchers. Several copyright-free machine readable dictionaries (MRD) are also available now, and some of these MRDs also include pronunciations (sound files) and example sentences, etc. By putting a few NLP Tools together, it is possible to build smart applications that can enhance foreign language teaching and learning experiences. In this paper, we will investigate such applications in a Web-based foreign language learning

A New Method for Improving Computational Cost of Open Information Extraction Systems Using Log-Linear Model

Information extraction (IE) is a process of automatically providing a structured representation from an unstructured or semi-structured text. It is a long-standing challenge in natural language processing (NLP) which has been intensified by the increased volume of information and heterogeneity, and non-structured form of it. One of the core information extraction tasks is relation extraction wh...
