Multi-dimensional Data Model of Textual Information

摘要

The key to understanding the meaning is in the proper representation of the textual information. The tree like representation of a text is not very convenient for large scale processing since the information about types of phrases, part of speech tags and actual terms are scattered in various tree nodes. The aim of the article is to propose a multidimensional model of textual data that would contain all the lexical information in a structure that enables further semantic processing. The approach in this article is based on the data modeling principles used in data warehousing.
