|    Automatically finding sentence delimiter    |
|    18 Dec 07 10:00:24    |
      From: abhisheksgumadi@gmail.com              Hello,               Does anyone know of any good algorithm to automatically learn the       Sentence Delimiters in an informal text such as this one which has       Human Dialogs and not formally structured?       //////////////////////////              Before Wood J              Held at Level 3, St James Centre,       Elizabeth Street, Sydney              On Monday, 8 May 1995 at 9.50am              (Day 66)              WITNESS INDEX              Anthony Gavin MOSS 6526       Peter Michael KELLY 6534       Andrew John McDONALD 6563       Robert Anthony CISERA 6580       KX 3 6591              6525              THE COMMISSIONER: Yes, Mr Agius, are we ready to       resume?              MR AGIUS: Yes. Mr Moss.              ANTHONY GAVIN MOSS       On former oath:              EXAMINATION BY MR AGIUS CONTINUING:              THE COMMISSIONER: I'll treat you as bound by the       oath you took last week. You are still bound by       the oath you took last Friday, so you may sit       down. Yes, Mr Agius?              MR AGIUS: Q. Mr Moss, have you given this matter,       that is, the events of 21 September 1994, thought       over the weekend?       A. Yes, I have.              Q. And have you recalled any more of the events that       you've described in evidence?       A. No.              Q. Was it your habit in September of 1994 to       complete your duty book on a daily basis?       A. To the best of my recollection, yes.              Q. And would you normally complete an entry for a       particular day on that day or would you --       A. Sometimes.              Q. Sometimes you would and sometimes you wouldn't?       A. That's right.              Q. On this day, it seems that you submitted your       claim for overtime on the next day, 22 September?       A. That's right.       ///////////////              I see that good delimiters which ought to be found by the algorithm       are Q. and A.       Given a text like this which is not well structured, is there any       algorithm which automatically finds the delimiters?              Abhishek S              [ comp.ai is moderated ... your article may take a while to appear. ]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
