FULCRUM TECHNIQUES TO SEMANTIC ANALYSIS
Abstract
A new semantic research technique was developed and employed. This technique makes possible the construction of semantic classes of words which share the characteristic of specifying a particular translation for a given polysemantic Russian content word. Improvements were made in the RW program for the areas of subject recognition and clause boundary determination. Conclusions were reached about an improved English synthesis. The latter involves reformulating Russian structures into appropriate but non-corresponding English structures. The major hard ware implication of the research suggests that associative memories may provide a simplification in the area of machine translation. Flow charts and a sample translation are included.
