Decomposition of Japanese sentences into normal forms based on human linguistic process
Tsutomu Endo, Tuneo Tamati · 1980
A diversity and a flexibility of language expression forms are awkward problems for the machine processing of language, such as translation, indexing and question-answering. This paper presents a method of decomposing Japanese sentences appearing in the Patent Documents on "Pulse network", into normal forms. First, the linguistic information is analysed and classified based on the human linguistic process. Then, predicate functions, phrase functions and operators are introduced as the normal forms. Finally, the decomposing procedure and some experimental results are shown.
