Wang Xiao · Chinese Journal of Computers · 2007
Chinese lexical analysis is the foundation task for most Chinese natural language processing.In this paper,word segmentation,POS tagging,named entity recognition and their relation are well discussed.Moreover,a pragmatic lexical analysis system based on mixed language models is presented,which adopts many models,such as n-gram,hidden Markov model,maximum entropy model,support vector machine and conditional random fields,they have good performance in the special sub-tasks.The Word Segmenter participated in the Second International Chinese Word Segmentation Bakeoff in 2005,and achieved 97.2% and 96.7% in terms of F-measure in MSR and PKU open test respectively.While the POS tagging and named entity recognition modules achieved 96.1% in precision and 88.6% in F-measure respectively in open test with the corpus that came from six-month corpora of Chinese Peoples' Daily.
