Quantitative Characteristics of Terms
Kováříková, Dominika ; Čermák, František (advisor) ; Bozděchová, Ivana (referee) ; Machová, Svatava (referee)
The new method of automatic term recognition TERMIT is focused not only on the high number of correctly labeled terms, but also on the most important attributes of a term (in terms of their role in automatic term identification process). The method is based on data mining, i.e. finding meaningful information in very large corpus data. It was able to both successfuly identify terms in academic texts and find constitutive features of a term as a terminological unit. The single-word term (SWT) can be characterized as a word with a low frequency in corpus (SYN2010) that occurs considerably more often in specialized texts of a given field than in non-academic texts, occurs in a small number of academic disciplines, its distribution in the corpus (SYN2010) is uneven as is the distance between its two instances. The multi-word term (MWT) is a stable collocation consisting of words with low frequency and contains at least one (and often more) single-word term. Based on the characteristics of SWT and MWT, it is possible to classify individual tokens in texts as terms or non-terms with a success rate of more than 95 %. Automatically identified terms can be used to identify percentage of SWT or MWT in different academic disciplines, as well as find terms shared by two or more domains in order to assess their...

Theoretical part of the thesis is based on knowledge about language tendencies and about dynamics of the media discourse. The core of the thesis is represented by the treatise on word-formation problems and classification of hybrid compounds with first international constituent complying with meaning "quantity, intensity, extent". In the corpus analysis, which was performed on material of two corpuses of media texts, SYN2006pub and SYN2009pub, were included components with general quantity-intensity semantics (mini-, mikro-, nano-, super-, maxi-, multi-, extra-, ultra-, mega-, giga-, makro-, monstr, top-) and also constituents with numeral meaning (mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-). As a high productive we consider the first set of components, which became involved in many spheres across the vocabulary of current social communication. Here we can find expressive hybrid compound as well as technical terms. These components give us opportunity to capture varied semantic transformations between them (e. g....
