hello,
I am looking for references to work about definitions of compound
words and their identification in context.
I am working on French data and am particularly interested in
grammatical words (like "en face de":P; "en fait":ADV, ...) but also
common nouns.
My purposes are to:
- determine what definition of *word* is pertinent for different
applications (extraction of classes according to syntactic
information, language modeling for speech recognition, ...)
- define guidelines for corpus anotation (i.e. tests that can be
applied to determine whether a sequence is a compound word or not)
Thank you in advance for any useful pointers
