Modifying a natural language processing system for European languages to treat Arabic in information processing and information retrieval applications

Year: 2005

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: The goal of many natural language processing platforms is to be able to someday correctly treat all languages. Each new language, especially one from a new language family, provokes some modification and design changes. Here we present the changes that we had to introduce into our platform designed for European languages in order to handle a Semitic language. Treatment of Arabic was successfully integrated into our cross language information retrieval system, which is visible online.
