- QUOTE: In the last few years the automatic extraction of definitions from textual data has become a common research topic in several domains of Natural Language Processing. These include:
- Definition extraction as a methodological resource for fields as different as computational semantics, information extraction, text mining, ontology development, WEB semantics and elearning.
- The conception of definition extraction as a self-challenging task, in particular in computational lexicography and terminography, fields oriented towards the design and implementation of electronic tools such as lexical knowledge bases, machine-readable dictionaries, terminological databases, thesauri, machine translation systems or question-answering systems.
