4. Notes:
-Sabine Kirchmeier-Andersen
(http://www.id.cbs.dk/medarbej/ska/sabine_da.shtml) recommends Word Smith
Tools and Quirk who both can use a LGP korpus in order to identify
automatically frequent LSP candidates. She thinks the latest articles by
Beatrice Daille et al. about term extraction describe the most efficient
methodology.
-Antal van den Bosch (http://ilk.kub.nl/~antalb/) did some experimenting
with a memory-based shallow parser after which he extracted terms using the
tf*idf method in statistics
