Lectal constraining of lexical collocations

Constructions and Frames, 2015
Adopting a corpus-based approach, lexical collocations are reconsidered from a lectal perspective. Analyzing adjective-noun collocations, it will be shown that lexical collocations are conditioned by the language settings in which they are used. These lectal constraints do not only apply to lexical collocations as a measure of lexical association but ...

Extending lexical association measures for collocation extraction

Computer Speech & Language, 2010
Collocations are linguistic phenomena that occur when two or more words appear together more often than by chance and whose meaning often cannot be inferred from the meanings of its parts. As collocations have found many applications in the fields of natural language processing, information retrieval, and text mining, extracting them from large corpora

Collocations and Lexical Functions

1998
Abstract This chapter discusses collocations from the viewpoint of their theoretical and practical (i.e. lexicographic) description. Although they are, and have long been, a popular topic in linguistics, there is, as far as I know, no universally accepted formal definition of collocations nor a proposal for their uniform and systematic ...

Collocations, lexical bundles and SciE-Lex

2013
This chapter provides an overview of studies on multiword units of meaning that have made an impact on the creation of SciE-Lex (see Verdaguer et al. this volume). We discuss a variety of statistical, phraseological and rhetorical approaches to collocation, as well as the notion of lexical bundle (Biber et al. 1999).

We present an extensive empirical evaluation of collocation extraction methods based on lexical association measures and their combination. The experiments are performed on three sets of collocation candidates extracted from the Prague Dependency Treebank with manual morphosyntactic annotation and from the Czech National Corpus with automatically ...
