Automatic Term Recognition using Domain Similarity and Statistical Methods

There have been many studies of automatic term recognition (ATR) and they have achieved good results. However, there are scopes to improve the performance of extracting terms still further by using the additional technical dictionaries. This paper focuses on the method for extracting terms using the hierarchy among technical dictionaries. Moreover, a statistical method based on frequencies, foreign words, and nested relations assists extracting terms which do not appear in dictionaries. Our method produces relatively good results for this task.
