Constructions définitoires des tables du Lexique-Grammaire

Lexicon-Grammar tables are a very rich syntactic lexicon for the French language. This linguistic database is nevertheless not directly suitable for use by computer programs, as it is incomplete and lacks consistency. Tables are defined on the basis of features which are not explicitly recorded in the lexicon. These features are only described in literature. Our aim is to define for each tables these essential properties to make them usable in various Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications, such as parsing.

Les Entités Nommées : usage et degrés de précision et de désambiguïsation

The recognition and classification of Named Entities (NER) are regarded as an important component for many Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications. The classification is usually made by taking into account the immediate context in which the NE appears. In some cases, this immediate context does not allow getting the right classification. We show in this paper that the use of an extended syntactic context and large-scale resources could be very useful in the NER task.
