The set of regular expressions used to capture numbers in written form (sechsundzwanzig) in German is given as an example. Proper noun candidates are identified by means of regular expressions, these being then rejected or accepted on the basis of runtime interaction with the user. This tagging component is integrated in a largescale grammar development environment, and provides direct input to the grammatical analysis component of the system by means of lift rules which convert tagged text into partial linguistic structures.}, ANNOTE = {COLIURL : Bredenkamp:1996:EIT.pdf} } @InProceedings{Bredenkamp_et_al:1997, AUTHOR = {Bredenkamp, Andrew and Declerck, Thierry and Fouvry, Frederik and Music, Bradley and Theofilidis, Axel}, TITLE = {Linguistic Engineering Using ALEP}, YEAR = {1997}, BOOKTITLE = {Proceedings of Recent Advantages in Natural Language Processing (RANLP '97), September 11-13}, ADDRESS = {Sofia, Bulgaria}, URL = {ftp://lt-ftp.dfki.uni-sb.de/pub/papers/local/declerck97_ranlp.entry ftp://lt-ftp.dfki.uni-sb.de/pub/papers/local/declerck97_ranlp.ps.gz}, ABSTRACT = {This paper focuses on the experiences of the LS-GRAM project and some post LS-GRAM activities with the ALEP platform.

The main aim of theGerman government funded FLAGproject1 is to develop technologies for controlled language (CL) and grammar checking applications for German. The project work has therefore been divided into two separate but complementary streams of activity. Firstly, the aim was to develop an modular NLP software architecture for quickly developing different kinds of CL and grammar checking applications. Secondly, to validate the first activity, it was seen as important to build up an empirical base for testing and formally evaluating checking components. Given the lack of existing annotated corpora of errors for German (or indeed for any language as far as the authors know), the construction of such a corpus was a high priority task. This would enable us not only to perform quantitative tests, but also to derive an empirically based typology of errors which the project could use for orientation. The corpus was particularly important given the approach which the FLAG project was taking to the task of grammar and controlled language checking, which relies on a phenomenonoriented approach to the problem of identifying errors, using shallow processing techniques. In order to finetune the heuristics which are central to such an approach, i.e. one based on identifying “candidate errors” of increasing probability, it is essential to have good test suites annotated with respect to the phenomena under investigation. The annotation of the corpus was to be carried out in such a way that we could easily access and quantify snapshots of the data, for producing test suites for testing purposes and for producing statistics on the frequency of particular error types. The research community not only lacked an annotated corpus of errors, there was no existing ontology of errors which could be easily translated into an annotation schema. The definition of such a schema based on traditional descriptions of errors (such as Luik, 1993a; Luik, 1993b) thus formed the first major workpackage. Fortunately, tools for the annotation of corpora, and the management thereof are becoming increasingly sophisticated; it was therefore necessary to evaluate a number of tools in the light of our specific needs.}, ANNOTE = {COLIURL : Bredenkamp:1999:AET.pdf} } @InProceedings{Marimon_et_al:1999, AUTHOR = {Marimon, Montserrat and Theofilidis, Axel and Declerck, Thierry and Bredenkamp, Andrew}, TITLE = {Natural Language Understanding for Natural Language Interfaces}, YEAR = {1999}, BOOKTITLE = {Proceedings of the Processamiento del Lenguaje Natural, September 8-10}, VOLUME = {25}, ADDRESS = {Lleida, Spain}, URL = {ftp://lt-ftp.dfki.uni-sb.de/pub/papers/local/sepln99_mel.ps.gz}, ABSTRACT = {In this paper we present the linguistic resources - the text handling and the linguistic processing modules - which have been developed for the MELISSA project using the ALEP platform.
