A Language Engineering Architecture for Processing Informal Mathematical Discourse
Magdalena Anna Wolska · Czech digital mathematics library · 2012
Abstract. We present a modular architecture for processing informal mathematical language as found in textbooks and mathematical publica-tions. We point at its properties relevant in addressing three aspects of informal mathematical discourse: (i) the interleaved symbolic and natu-ral language, (ii) the linguistic, domain, and notational context, and (iii) the imprecision of the informal language. The objective in the modular approach is to enable parameterisation of the system with respect to the natural language of the text and the mathematical domain of discourse.
