To permit researchers to use the speed and versatility of the computer to process natural language text as well as numerical data without undergoing special training in programing or computer operations, a language analysis package has been developed partially based on several existing programs. An overview of the design is provided and system…

A series of computer programs to handle natural language retrieval and analysis in a manner analogous to that of a statistical package is discussed. The document presents an overview of several language analysis projects currently underway, and of several research approaches to problems in language analysis. The manner in which the Language…

A series of computer programs and routines intended to assist researchers in the analysis of language usage--with a power comparable to statistical computer routines--was developed by the Southwest Regional Laboratory (SWRL). This document is one of a series that describes the design specifications for the individual modules which comprise the…

The Language Analysis Package (LAP) was developed by the Southwest Regional Laboratory (SWRL) to assist researchers in the analysis of language usage. The function of the KWIC (Keyword-in Context or Concordance) Module of the LAP is to produce keyword listings from the input text being analyzed. Such listings will contain location information…
