Abstract :
We propose a statistical semantic analysis method for Chinese terms. We use words, part-of-speech (POS) tags, word distances, word contexts and the first sememe of a word in HowNet as features to train a Support Vector Machine (SVM) model for analyzing term semantics. The model is used to identify dependencies embedded inside a term. A Conditional Random Field (CRF) model is used afterwards to incorporate the dependencies and experimental results showed the effectiveness and validity of our approach.
