Portuguese Large-scale Language Resources for NLP Applications
Elisabete Ranchhod, Paula Carvalho, Cristina Mota, Anabela Marques Barreiro · 2004
The paper describes Portuguese large-scale linguistic resources, mainly computational lexicons and grammars, developed by LabEL.These resources are formalized and applied to texts by means of finite-state techniques, more and more acknowledged in Natural Language Processing.On the one hand, it illustrates methods on lexical representation for simple words and multi-word expressions; on the other hand, it provides examples (in form of concordances) of linguistic structures recognized after the application of disambiguation and parsing grammars to texts.The paper ends with a short reference to the publicly available data highlighting its contribution towards dissemination of LabEL's knowledge on language technology.
