Abstract

Improving the accuracy of dependency analysis in long Japanese sentences is a big problem in the natural language analysis.Concerning the form of “‹noun-1›‹adjective›+‹noun-2›”, we found the seven effective dependency rules which are classified into three following patterns in the previous paper.
·determined only from preceding or following nouns.
·determined from the relation between preceding or following nouns and adjective.
·determined from the characteristic of adjective itself.
In this paper, we research more systematically the dependency of adnominal which contains I-adjective or NA-adjective, based on classification of adjectives. We explain (1) these seven rules are effectively applied to new adjectives by some extension, (2) some other rules are effective to improve the accuracy of dependency.Finally we obtained an accuracy of about 95% by applying our method to determine the dependency of adnominals which included an adjective.
