Multi-word expressions (MWEs) play an important role in all tasks that involve natural language processing. MWEs in Hindi are quite varied and many of these are of the types that are not encountered in English. In this paper, we examine different types of MWEs encountered in Hindi. Many of these have not received adequate attention of investigators. For example, ‘vaalaa’ constructs, doublets (w...

Our project is based on the theme of Multi Word Expressions (MWE) we will focus on the problem of extraction. This task is important for improving lexical resources used for tasks such as tokenization, parsing or translation. In our study we will work on a French corpus. Our aim will be to not only select but also validate automatically which candidates are the true ones. If we have time we wil...

Syntagmatic fixedness is an important feature of multi-word expressions (MWE). However, syntagmatic fixedness is gradual and various semantic and syntactic relations hold among the parts of MWEs. This poses intriguing problems for lexicography, linguistic description and language processing. In this paper we propose a computationally inexpensive and intuitive approach to the measurement of synt...

Multi-Word Expressions (MWEs) are prevalent in text and are also, on average, less polysemous than mono-words. This suggests that accurate MWE detection should lead to a nontrivial improvement in Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD). We show that a straightforward MWE detection strategy, due to Arranz et al. (2005), can increase a WSD algorithm’s baseline f-measure by 5 percentage points. Our measur...

many commonly used statistical methods require that the population distribution be nearly normal. unfortunately, in some papers the one-sample kolmogorov-smirnov test has been used for testing normality while the assumptions of applying this test are not satisfied. to conduct this test, it is assumed that the population distribution is fully specified. in practical situation where the mean and ...

with the concerns about healthy and balanced diet in our country and in the world, the interest in fishery products is constantly increasing. fishery products are the sources of good quality protein, vitamins and minerals. they are also rich in calcium and phosphorus. all the nutritional properties of fishery products.are the real reason why they are more preffered. one of these fishery product...

The purpose of the study was to verify, through the use of an experimental method, the assumption that the ‘economic human’ pays more attention to the externality he/she causes as the strength of externality increases. We used a social-experiment design within an undergraduate classroom to test assumptions, using statistical method. A lakeside plant was used as an example. Our results confirmed...
