Deepdict - et korpusbaseret relationelt leksikon

Resumé

DeepDict (at www.gramtrans.com) is a new type of lexical resource,
built from grammatically analysed corpus data. Co-occurrence
strength between mother-daughter dependency pairs is used to
automatically produce dictionary entries of typical complementation
patterns and collocations, in the fashion of an instant monolingual
usage dictionary. DeepDict is capable of abstracting lemma
relations and semantic classes from inflected surface forms, and
provides concordances and statistics for the relations found. Entries
are supplied to the user in a graphical interface with various
thresholds for lexical frequencies as well as absolute and relative cooccurrence
frequencies. DeepDict draws its data from Constraint
Grammar-analysed corpora, ranging between tens and hundreds of
millions of words, covering the major Germanic and Romance languages,
among them both Swedish, Danish and Norwegian. Apart
from its obvious lexicographical purposes, DeepDict also targets
teaching environments and translators.
