On-line information -- and free text in particular -- has emerged
as a major, yet unexploited, resource available in raw form.
Available, but not accessible. The lexicon provides the major key
for enabling accessibility to on-line text.
The expert contributors to this book explore the range of
possibilities for the generation of extensive lexicons. In so
doing, they investigate the use of existing on-line dictionaries
and thesauri, and explain how lexicons can be acquired from the
corpus -- the text under investigation -- itself. Leading
researchers in four related fields offer the latest investigations:
computational linguists cover the natural language processing
aspect; statisticians point out the issues involved in the use of
massive data; experts discuss the limitations of current
technology; and lexicographers share their experience in the design
of the traditional dictionaries.
