"4399","A Supervised Learning Approach to Acronym Identification","This paper addresses the task of finding acronym-definition pairs in text. Most of the previous work on the topic is about systems that involve manually generated rules or regular expressions. In this paper, we present a supervised learning approach to the acronym identification task. Our approach reduces the search space of the supervised learning system by putting some weak constraints on the kinds of acronym-definition pairs that can be identified. We obtain results comparable to hand-crafted systems that use stronger constraints. We describe our method for reducing the search space, the features used by our supervised learning system, and our experiments with various learning schemes.","http://cogprints.org/4399/","Nadeau, David and Turney, Peter","Kégl, Balázs and Lapalme, Guy"," Nadeau, David and Turney, Peter (2005) A Supervised Learning Approach to Acronym Identification.
