Evaluation of ICOT ' s language research natural

Abstract The Natural Language Processing group at ICOT was small and underwent a considerable turnover in personnel. As a result, the topics of research were quite diverse, though the general areas of interest were similar to those in the West during the same period. The primary emphases were on parsing, the development of grammar formalisms, and the design of an experimental discourse processing system. One feature of interest was the incorporation into their grammar formalisms of the traditional Japanese linguistic theory. Some of the software and the linguistic data are publicly available as a part of the ICOT Free Software and are useful to researchers who are working on Japanese.
