Abstract
The ATLAS project, started in March 2010, intends to create a multilingual language processing framework integrating the common set of linguistic tools for a group of European languages, among them Polish. The chained tools producing multi-level UIMA-encoded annotation of texts can be used by NLP applications for complex language-intensive operations such as automated categorization, information extraction, machine translation or summarization.
This paper concentrates on applications of ATLAS language processing chains to multilingual information systems, with particular interest in processing Polish. Inflectional characteristics of this language offers the possibility to comment on a few more advanced functions such as multiword unit lemmatisation, vital for real-life presentation of extracted phrases. Several sample applications using the NLP chain are also presented.
The work reported here was carried out within the Applied Technology for Language-Aided CMS project co-funded by the European Commission under the Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) Policy Support Programme (Grant Agreement No 250467).
