"This book introduces the semantic aspects of natural language processing and its applications. Topics covered include: measuring word meaning similarity, multi-lingual querying, and parametric theory, named entity recognition, semantics, query language,the and the nature of language. The book also emphasizes the portions of mathematics needed to understand the discussed algorithms. "--

Emphasizing the semantic dimension, Kapentanios, Tatar, and Sacarea share insights they have acquired doing research at the crossroads of natural language processing, information retrieval and search, text mining, knowledge representation, formal concept analysis, and further mathematical areas. Among their topics are algebraic structures, measuring word meaning similarity, multi-lingual querying and parametric theory, text summarization, and named entity recognition.
