ABSTRACT:
A method of identifying potential novel word usage in a document comprises determining a part-of-speech assignment for each word in the document using a first part-of-speech tagger, determining a part-of-speech assignment for each word in the document using a second part-of-speech tagger different from the first part-of-speech tagger, and comparing the part-of-speech assignment of the first and second part-of-speech taggers. The method then generates a differential word set having words with different part-of-speech assignment by the first and second part-of-speech taggers. The words in the differential word set are candidates of words of novel usage.
