Comparing Corpus-based to Web-based Lookup Techniques for Automatic English Inclusion Detection
Beatrice Alex · 2008
The influence of English as a global language continues to grow to an extent that its words and expressions permeate the original forms of other languages.This paper evaluates a modular Web-based sub-component of an existing English inclusion classifier and compares it to a corpus-based lookup technique.Both approaches are evaluated on a German gold standard data set.It is demonstrated to what extent the Web-based approach benefits from the amount of data available online and the fact that this data is constantly updated.
