Synonym(s)

  • segmentation

Example

  • For the serialization of structural annotations a natural way to represent trees is by using XML embedding structures. (Chiarcos, Dipper, Götze, Leser, Lüdeling, Ritz & Stede, 2008)
  • Future work includes further research on the correlation of the quality of the statistical dictionary with the quality of the segmentation by trying out different segmentations. (González-Rubio, Sanchis-Trilles, Juan & Casacuberta, 2008)
  • The structural annotations are used to respond more precisely to information needs expressed in Topic Statements where some aspects of relevancy requirements such as time source intentionality and state of completion can only be met by understanding a Topic Statement's discourse requirements (e.g. the consequences of automation; a proposed theme park development). (Liddy & Myaeng, 1993)
