Contents:
Introduction / Ali Farghaly -- The Arabic language, Arabic linguistics and Arabic computational linguistics / Ali Farghaly -- Arabic lexical resources. The Buckwalter Arabic Morphological Analyzer / Timothy A. Buckwalter -- The Penn Arabic Treebank / Mohamed Maamouri and Ann Bies -- The other Arabic Treebank: Prague dependencies and functions / Otakar Smrž and Jan Hajič -- Arabic pattern recognition. Finite state based Arabic word segmentation / Jeffrey Sorensen and Imed Zitouni -- A statistical model for Arabic mention detection and chaining / Imed Zitouni, Xiaoqiang Luo, and Radu Florian -- Automatic speech recognition systems for conversational Arabic / Katrin Kirchhoff and Dimitra Vergyri -- Arabic machine translation. The language weaver : Arabic to English statistical machine translation system / Alexander Fraser and William Wong -- Complementation structures in Arabic for rule-based machine translation / Selcuk K"opr"u and Jude Miller -- The AppTek Hybrid Machine Translation System / Hassan Sawaf.
Summary: Arabic is an exciting -- yet challenging -- language for scholars because many of its linguistic properties have not been fully described. Arabic Computational Linguistics documents the recent work of researchers in both academia and industry who have taken up the challenge of solving the real-life problems posed by an understudied language. This comprehensive volume explores new Arabic machine translation systems, innovations in speech recognition and mention detection, tree banks, and linguistic corpora. Arabic Computational Linguistics will be an indispensable reference for language researchers and practitioners alike. -- Publisher description.
