Major Steps in Natural Language Processing

 

There are general five steps −

  • Lexical Analysis− It involves identifying and analyzing the structure of words. Lexicon of a language means the collection of words and phrases in a language. Lexical analysis is dividing the whole chunk of txt into paragraphs, sentences, and words.
  • Syntactic Analysis (Parsing)− It involves analysis of words in the sentence for grammar and arranging words in a manner that shows the relationship among the words. The sentence such as “The school goes to boy” is rejected by English syntactic analyzer.

  • Semantic Analysis− It draws the exact meaning or the dictionary meaning from the text. The text is checked for meaningfulness. It is done by mapping syntactic structures and objects in the task domain. The semantic analyzer disregards sentence such as “hot ice-cream”.
  • Discourse Integration− The meaning of any sentence depends upon the meaning of the sentence just before it. In addition, it also brings about the meaning of immediately succeeding sentence.
  • Pragmatic Analysis− During this, what was said is re-interpreted on what it actually meant. It involves deriving those aspects of language which require real world knowledge.
