Abstract:

The correct interpretation of Multiword Units (MWUs) is crucial to many
applications in Natural Language Processing but is a challenging and complex
task. In recent years, the computational treatment of MWUs has received
considerable attention but there is much more to be done before we can claim
that NLP and Machine Translation (MT) systems process MWUs successfully. 

This volume provides a general overview of the field with particular reference
to Machine Translation and Translation Technology and focuses on languages
such as English, Basque, French, Romanian, German, Dutch and Croatian, among
others. The chapters of the volume illustrate a variety of topics that address
this challenge, such as the use of rule-based approaches, compound splitting
techniques, MWU identification methodologies in multilingual applications, and
MWU alignment issues.
