Statistical Natural Language Processing (NLP) Algorithm

A Statistical Natural Language Processing (NLP) Algorithm is a data-driven NLP algorithm that is a statistical algorithm.

• Context:
  • It can range from being a Supervised Natural Language Processing Algorithm to being an Unsupervised Natural Language Processing Algorithm.
  • It can be implemented by a Statistical Natural Language Processing System.
  • …
• Example(s):
  • a Charniak Parsing Algorithm.
  • a Statistical MT Algorithm.
  • …
• Counter-Example(s):
  • a First-Principles Natural Language Processing Algorithm.
  • a Heuristic Natural Language Processing Algorithm, such as a Lesk Algorithm.
  • a Rule-based NLP Algorithm.
  • a Neural NLP Algorithm.
• See: Language Model, n-Gram Model.
