Reed, A. – Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing Bulletin, 1977
This article describes a computer program, or package, that has been designed to allow a novice computer user to analyze natural language text by computer. The program can produce collocations, concordances, and word lists. The article also describes the package control language, which is designed to be easily used. Word extraction, word…

Barton, Ian J.; And Others – 1973
A novel text analysis and characterization method involves the generation from text samples of sets of variable-length character strings. These sets are intermediate in number between the character set and the total number of words in a data base; their distribution is less disparate than those of either characters or words. The size of the sets…

Harris, Albert J.; Jacobson, Milton D. – 1972
The development of a computerized system of word analysis in order to compare and compile word lists is outlined. It is suggested that a computerized system would be an efficient way of comparing word lists for such elements as content (according to criteria of range, scope, and form of words), obsolescence, levels of difficulty, number of words,…

Keller, Howard H. – 1974
Language teaching requires textbook material that contains the most frequent concepts of a language. The computer brings its tremendous information processing ability to the task of establishing word frequency rankings, but the computer is limited to counting word-forms and not semantic concepts. The most recent word frequency dictionaries, in…

Schuegraf, Ernst J. – 1975
A description of a retrospective document retrieval system is given in which equifrequent fragments are used as language elements for compression coding and retrieval. The critical parameters governing the system are identified, and restrictions imposed by the parameters on the selection of fragments are outlined. Changes necessary in the…

Halbauer, Siegfried – Russisch, 1976
It was considered that students of intensive scientific Russian courses could learn vocabulary more efficiently if they were taught word stems and how to combine them with prefixes and suffixes to form scientific words. The computer programs developed to identify the most important stems is discussed. (Text is in German.) (FB)
