商品の説明

"Statistical natural-language processing is, in my estimation, one of the most fast-moving and exciting areas of computer science these days. Anyone who wants to learn this field would be well advised to get this book. For that matter, the same goes for anyone who is already in the field. I know that it is going to be one of the most well-thumbed books on my bookshelf." -- Eugene Charniak, Department of Computer Science, Brown University

Statistical approaches to processing natural language text have become dominant in recent years. This foundational text is the first comprehensive introduction to statistical natural language processing (NLP) to appear. The book contains all the theory and algorithms needed for building NLP tools. It provides broad but rigorous coverage of mathematical and linguistic foundations, as well as detailed discussion of statistical methods, allowing students and researchers to construct their own implementations. The book covers collocation finding, word sense disambiguation, probabilistic parsing, information retrieval, and other applications.

カスタマーレビュー

All you wanted to know about statistical NLP...
Manning and Shutze have created a must-have volume for any serious student or professional in the NLP world. Not only are all the techniques and methods detailed, experiments described and results analysed, but its all backed up with the required bits and pieces of statistics, linguistics and computational linguistics.

Written in an informal manner, this is an ideal reference and a great tutor.
