Dissertation Abstract:

In this doctoral thesis, long specialized noun phrases of more than three
tokens are described and classified in English and Spanish specialized
genome corpora in expert-to-expert communication.

In short, the phenomena analyzed in this thesis can be basically summarized
as: a) the study of the complex premodification of noun phrases in English;
b) the study of the postmodification in Spanish; c) the analysis of the
correlation between the semantic structures and lexical categories; d) the
semantic trends of noun phrases in regard to classes and patterns; e) the
behavior of long noun phrases in specialized dictionaries and reference
corpora; f) and finally, the translation trends of this kind of noun
phrases in a parallel corpus.

The behavior and the regularities found in this study would allow
professionals of the English and Spanish languages to have a tool to
suitably solve noun phrases with long premodification.
