1. 1. Temporal information in natural language

   Författare :Magnus Merkel; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Talspråk;

   Sammanfattning : The subject of this thesis is temporal information; how it is expressed and conveyed in natural language. When faced with the task of processing temporal information in natural language computationally, a number of challenges has to be met. LÄS MER

3. 2. Understanding and enhancing translation by parallel text processing

   Författare :Magnus Merkel; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : In recent years the fields of translation studies, natural language processing and corpus linguistics have come to share one object of study, namely parallel text corpora, and more specifically translation corpora. In this thesis it is shown how all three fields can benefit from each other, and, in particular, that a prerequisite for making better translations (whether by humans or with the aid of computer-assisted tools) is to understand features and relationships that exist in a translation corpus.

4. 3. Design and use of ontologies in information-providing dialogue systems

   Författare :Annika Flycht-Eriksson (Silvervarg); Arne Jönsson; Lars Degerstedt; Magnus Merkel; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer programs; artificiell intelligens; ontology; information-providing dialogue systems; dialogue management; semantic; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis, the design and use of ontologies as domain knowledge sources in information-providing dialogue systems are investigated. The research is divided into two parts, theoretical investigations that have resulted in a requirements specifications on the design of ontologies to be used in information-providing dialogue systems, and empirical work on the development of a framework for use of ontologies in information-providing dialogue systems.

5. 4. Computational Terminology : Exploring Bilingual and Monolingual Term Extraction

   Författare :Jody Foo; Magnus Merkel; Lars Ahrenberg; Dimitrios Kokkinakis; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; terminology; automatic term extraction; automatic term recognition; computational terminology; terminology management;

   Sammanfattning : Terminologies are becoming more important to modern day society as technology and science continue to grow at an accelerating rate in a globalized environment. Agreeing upon which terms should be used to represent which concepts and how those terms should be translated into different languages is important if we wish to be able to communicate with as little confusion and misunderstandings as possible.

7. 5. Word Alignment by Re-using Parallel Phrases

   Författare :Maria Holmqvist; Lars Ahrenberg; Magnus Merkel; Jörg Tiedemann; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computational linguistics; Computational linguistics; Datorlingvistik;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis we present the idea of using parallel phrases for word alignment. Each parallel phrase is extracted from a set of manual word alignments and contains a number of source and target words and their corresponding alignments. If a parallel phrase matches a new sentence pair, its word alignments can be applied to the new sentence. LÄS MER
