Building a information system for looking up contextual technical dictionary
The context of technical terms is very important. It is part of information in text which supports users in understanding the exact meaning of technical terms in particular specialized circumstances, especially in education and research. However, most of current dictionary systems only focus on the lookup function and the standard meaning of terms without considering related contexts. In this paper, we proposed the model for searching technical terms and context of terms based on analyzing, evaluating and choosing an optimal algorithm in pattern matching technique. Then, the model was integrated on a dictionary system and experimented on 1500 terms in the context of information system and electronic commerce. This dictionary system supports searching with technical terms both in Vietnamese and English.
