- Collocations are recurrent combinations of words that co-occur more often than expected by chance. They often represent terminologies or important noun phrases in English text. NPtool [33], a commercial noun phrase detector tool, employs part-of-speech tagging and morphological analysis for this purpose.

- ABSTRACT: NPtool is a fast and accurate system for extracting noun phrases from English texts for the purposes of e.g. information retrieval, translation unit discovery, and corpus studies. After a general introduction, the system architecture is presented in outline. Then follows an examination of a recently written Constraint Syntax. Section 6 reports on the performance of the system.
- This paper outlines NPTool, a noun phrase detector. At the heart of this modular system is reductionistic word-oriented morphosyntactic analysis that expresses head-modifier dependencies.
