A Hybrid Approach for Functional Expression Identification in a Japanese Reading Assistant
Gregory Hazelbeck, Hiroaki Saito · 2010
In this paper we present a hybrid approach for identifying Japanese functional ex-pressions and its application in a Japanese reading assistant. We combine the re-sults of machine learning and pattern-based methods to identify several types of functional expressions. We show that by using our approach we can double the coverage of previous approaches and still maintain the high level of performance necessary for our application. 1
