Abstract

Research of linguistic metaphors is an important branch of natural language processing. Applications (e.g. semantic understanding, machine translation, and information retrieval) are affected if metaphors can not be identified appropriately. This paper presents a three-phase method for recognizing Chinese metaphor phrases from a large-scale corpus. First, we acquire the context of every candidate phrase. Then hierarchical clustering is used to cluster the phrases based on their contextual information. Finally, heuristic rules are used on the clustering result to determine whether a candidate phrase is a metaphor phrase. Experimental results show the method achieves a satisfactory performance.
