Overview

"This volume brings together revised versions of a selection of papers presented at the Second International Conference on ""Recent Advances in Natural Language Processing"" (RANLP `97). The aim of the conference was to give researchers the opportunity to present new results in Natural Language Processing (NLP) based on both traditional and modern theories and approaches. The contributions have been grouped according to the following topics: tagging; lexical issues and parsing; disambiguation and anaphora resolution; semantics; generation; machine translation; and categorizations and applications."
