Generating abbreviations using Google Books library
Abstract
The article describes the original method of creating a dictionary of abbreviations based on the Google Books Ngram Corpus. The dictionary of abbreviations is designed for Russian, yet as its methodology is universal it can be applied to any language. The dictionary can be used to define the function of the period during text segmentation in various applied systems of text processing. The article describes difficulties encountered in the process of its construction as well as the ways to overcome them. A model of evaluating a probability of first and second type errors (extraction accuracy and fullness) is constructed. Certain statistical data for the use of abbreviations are provided.
