Title: | Learning the countability of English nouns from corpus data | Authors: | Baldwin, Timothy Bond, Francis |
Keywords: | DRNTU::Humanities::Linguistics::Sociolinguistics::Computational linguistics | Issue Date: | 2003 | Source: | Baldwin, T., & Bond, F. (2003). Learning the countability of English nouns from corpus data. Proceedings of 41st Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL-2003, 463-470. | Conference: | Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (41st : 2003) | Abstract: | This paper describes a method for learning the countability preferences of English nouns from raw text corpora. The method maps the corpus-attested lexico-syntactic properties of each noun onto a feature vector, and uses a suite of memory-based classifiers to predict membership in 4 countability classes. We were able to assign countability to English nouns with a precision of 94.6%. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/92279 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/6825 |
