Evaluating Natural Language Processing Techniques in Information Retrieval

Variations morphologiques, syntaxiques, sémantiques et Repérage d’Information sur le Web

“…Depuis peu, la convergence des deux domaines s'est faite et elle a porté ses fruits dans chacun d'eux (Jacquemin et coll. 2000, Jacquemin et Zweigenbaum 2000, Strzalkowski 1995, Strzalkowski et coll. 1999, Spärck Jones 1999, Woods et coll.…”

Developing a Transition Parser for the Arabic Language

“…Information retrieval is one of the natural language processing applications that appears in these definitions. Information retrieval is a field which deals with the structure, analysis, organization, storage, searching, and retrieval of information [2]. Moreover, information retrieval is a selective process by which the desired information is extracted from a store of information called a database [3].…”

Standardization of Terms Applying Finite-State Transducers (FST)

“…Matching query terms to documents involves a number of advanced retrieval techniques, and one problem that has not yet been solved is the inadequate representation of the two (Strzalkowski, Lin, Wang, & Pérez-Carballo, 1999). At the root of this problem is the great variability of the lexical, syntactic, and morphological features of a term, variants that cannot be recognized by simple string-matching algorithms without some sort of natural language processing (NLP) (Hull, 1996).…”
