Abstract

an integrated Chinese processing platform which includes a suite of high performance natural language processing (NLP) modules and relevant corpora. Especially for the syntactic and semantic parsing modules, we achieved good results in some relevant evaluations, such as CoNLL and SemEval. Based on XML internal data representation, users can easily use these modules and corpora by invoking DLL (Dynamic Link Library) or Web service APIs (Application Program Interface), and view the processing results directly by the visualization tool. 1
