Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Corpus processing tools are now an integral part of the compiling of specialized dictionaries and updating of term banks. They have led terminographers to consider terminological data differently, since many regularities and problems are highlighted in a more systematic manner. One linguistic fact more immediately revealed by the use of corpus tools is the relationship between terms in noun form with verbs and adjectives. In this paper, we study two specific types of relationships, namely morphological and syntagmatic relationships. We propose to consider lexical units that have one of these relationships with terms in nominal form. We will demonstrate that verbs and adjectives should be taken into account by terminographers for a number a reasons: some of them provide clues to the meaning of terms, others are morphologically and semantically related to terms in noun form.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
