Abstract
- Natural language processing technologies have advanced remarkably in the past two decades. However, biological terminology is a frequent cause of analysis errors when processing literature written in the biology domain. The BOOTStrep BioLexicon is a linguistic resource tailored for the domain to cope with these problems. It contains the following types of entries: (1) a set of terminological verbs; (2) a set of derived forms of the terminological verbs; (3) general English words frequently used in the biology domain; (4) domain terms. This comprehensive coverage of biological terms makes the lexicon a unique linguistic resource within the domain. This paper focuses on the linguistic aspects of the lexicon.
