Some Language Resources and Tools for Computational Processing of Portuguese at INESC

Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2000)

Abstract

In the last few years automatic processing tools and studies based on corpora have became of a great importance for the community. The possibility of evaluating and developing such tools and studies depends on the availability of language resources. For the Portuguese language in its several national varieties these resources are not enough to meet the community needs. In this paper some valuable resources are presented, such as a multifunctional lexicon, general-purpose lexicons for European and Brazilian Portuguese and corpus processing tools.
