  • Doctor's Thesis Studies on Multilingual Information Processing
    NAIST-IS-DT9761021 Doctor’s Thesis Studies on Multilingual Information Processing on the Internet Akira Maeda September 18, 2000 Department of Information Systems Graduate School of Information Science Nara Institute of Science and Technology Doctor’s Thesis submitted to Graduate School of Information Science, Nara Institute of Science and Technology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR of ENGINEERING Akira Maeda Thesis committee: Shunsuke Uemura, Professor Yuji Matsumoto, Professor Minoru Ito, Professor Masatoshi Yoshikawa, Associate Professor Studies on Multilingual Information Processing on the Internet ∗ Akira Maeda Abstract With the increasing popularity of the Internet in various part of the world, the languages used for Web documents are expanded from English to various languages. However, there are many unsolved problems in order to realize an information system which can handle such multilingual documents in a unified manner. From the user’s point of view, three most fundamental text processing functions for the general use of the World Wide Web are display, input, and retrieval of the text. However, for languages such as Japanese, Chinese, and Korean, character fonts and input methods that are necessary for displaying and inputting texts, are not always installed on the client side. From the system’s point of view, one of the most troublesome problems is that, many Web documents do not have meta information of the character coding system and the language used for the document itself, although character coding systems used for Web documents vary according to the language. It may result in troubles such as incorrect display on Web browsers, and inaccurate indexing on Web search engines.

  • Surface Or Essence: Beyond the Coded Character Set Model
    Surface or Essence: Beyond the Coded Character Set Model. Shigeki Moro1) Abstract For almost all users, the coded character set model is the only way to use characters with their computers. Although there have been frequent arguments about the many problems of coded character sets, until now, there was almost nothing on the philosophical consideration on a character in the field of Computer science. In this paper, the similarity between the coded character set model and Aristotle’s Essentialism and the consequent problems derived from it, is discussed. Then the importance of the surface of the character is pointed out using the ´ecrituretheory of Jacques Derrida. Lastly, the Chaon model of the CHISE project is introduced as one of the solutions to this problem. Keywords: Unicode, Aristotle’s Essentialism, Derrida’s Theory of ´ecriture,Chaon model “Depth must be hidden. Where? On the surface.” other local and super character code sets are still —Hugo von Hofmannsthal (1874-1929) being developed, and the repertoires of the existing character sets are increasing even now. What users 1 Introduction. can only do is to choose and follow these character sets. Writing, is not only considered as one of the most The main reason for this is that there are both fundamental mediums of intellectual activities, but sides: Writing is not only dependent on a context, also a frequently used one, which is not restricted but that it is transmitted exceeding the context (it to the use of computers alone. Needless to say that is contrastive with oral language being indivisible the coded character set model (abbreviation being from a context).

  • Chapter 4 Character Encoding in Corpus Construction
    Chapter 4 Character encoding in corpus construction Anthony McEnery Zhonghua Xiao Lancaster University Corpus linguistics has developed, over the past three decades, into a rich paradigm that addresses a great variety of linguistic issues ranging from monolingual research of one language to contrastive and translation studies involving many different languages. Today, while the construction and exploitation of English language corpora still dominate the field of corpus linguistics, corpora of other languages, either monolingual or multilingual, have also become available. These corpora have added notably to the diversity of corpus-based language studies. Character encoding is rarely an issue for alphabetical languages, like English, which typically still use ASCII characters. For many other languages that use different writing systems (e.g. Chinese), encoding is an important issue if one wants to display the corpus properly or facilitate data interchange, especially when working with multilingual corpora that contain a wide range of writing systems. Language specific encoding systems make data interchange problematic, since it is virtually impossible to display a multilingual document containing texts from different languages using such encoding systems. Such documents constitute a new Tower of Babel which disrupts communication. In addition to the problem with displaying corpus text or search results in general, an issue which is particular relevant to corpus building is that the character encoding in a corpus must be consistent if the corpus is to be searched reliably. This is because if the data in a corpus is encoded using different character sets, even though the internal difference is indiscernible to human eyes, a computer will make a distinction, thus leading to unreliable results.

The most recent and obvious changes in multilingual information processing have been the introduction of larger character sets encompassing more writing systems. Yet the very richness of larger collections of characters has made the interpretation and pro- cessing of text more difficult. The many competing motivations (satisfying the needs of linguists, computer scientists, and typographers) for standardizing charac- ter sets threaten the purpose of information processing: accurate and facile manipu- lation of data.

  • Ascii 1 Ascii
    ASCII 1 ASCII The American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII /ˈæski/ ASS-kee) is a character-encoding scheme originally based on the English alphabet that encodes 128 specified characters - the numbers 0-9, the letters a-z and A-Z, some basic punctuation symbols, some control codes that originated with Teletype machines, and a blank space - into the 7-bit binary integers.[1] ASCII codes represent text in computers, communications equipment, and other devices that use text. Most modern character-encoding A chart of ASCII from a 1972 printer manual schemes are based on ASCII, though they support many additional characters. ASCII developed from telegraphic codes. Its first commercial use was as a seven-bit teleprinter code promoted by Bell data services. Work on the ASCII standard began on October 6, 1960, with the first meeting of the American Standards Association's (ASA) X3.2 subcommittee. The first edition of the standard was published during 1963, a major revision during 1967, and the most recent update during 1986. Compared to earlier telegraph codes, the proposed Bell code and ASCII were both ordered for more convenient sorting (i.e., alphabetization) of lists, and added features for devices other than teleprinters. ASCII includes definitions for 128 characters: 33 are non-printing control characters (many now obsolete) that affect how text and space are processed[2] and 95 printable characters, including the space (which is considered an invisible graphic[3][4]). The IANA prefers the name US-ASCII to avoid ambiguity. ASCII was the most commonly used character encoding on the World Wide Web until December 2007, when it was surpassed by UTF-8, which includes ASCII as a subset.
