Online linguistic exploration: deeper, faster, broader language documentation. This project will develop a new online mode for collaborative linguistic research. Linguists will be able to harness the power of natural language processing techniques for their study of the world's languages. A demonstration system will be developed, permitting linguists to locate examples of syntactic constructions in a large database of parsed text, and to explore similarities across different languages.

Linguists will be able to harness the power of natural language processing techniques for their study of the world's languages. A demonstration system will be developed, permitting linguists to locate examples of syntactic constructions in a large database of parsed text, and to explore similarities across different languages. The project will also encompass a selection of minority languages for which only a small amount of data is available.Read moreRead less
Concept-Based Multilingual Web Content Mining. Towards smart use of Web information, this pioneer project will develop an innovative concept-based approach for discovering global knowledge embedded within multilingual Web documents. Departing from the traditional bilingual term-to-term machine translation techniques, the approach overcomes the notorious vocabulary mismatch problem by enabling synchronised lexical mapping of multiple languages. A series of intelligent concept-based techniques usi ....Concept-Based Multilingual Web Content Mining. Towards smart use of Web information, this pioneer project will develop an innovative concept-based approach for discovering global knowledge embedded within multilingual Web documents. Departing from the traditional bilingual term-to-term machine translation techniques, the approach overcomes the notorious vocabulary mismatch problem by enabling synchronised lexical mapping of multiple languages. A series of intelligent concept-based techniques using fuzzy logic and neural networks will be investigated to support smart Web information browsing and exploration. This project will provide valuable new insights into developing state-of-the-art multilingual Web mining applications for enhancing business intelligence in Australia's knowledge driven industries.Read moreRead less
