    What do you mean by "other types of information"? As far as I know,
    automatic term extraction methods are based on features that can be
    extracted/calculated automatically from texts. So in the begining, we can
    only calculate statistical scores, and then we can tag/shallow-parse
    (extract linguistic information). If we can go further, say can deep-parse,
    or extract semantic or discource information automatically, then new
    approaches of automatic term extraction will be introduced.
    You can find some discussion about using other information in automatic
    terminology processing in:

    Multi-Word Term Extraction”. Proceedings of the Fifth International Congress
    on Terminology and Knowledge Engineering (TKE'99), 212-221. Vienna, Austria.

    from technical corpora”. Proceedings of the Fifth International Congress on

    Hope this help,

    extraction

    Hi,

    The possibilities of automatic term extraction are usually explored using
    statistical information, linguistic information or a combination of both.
    Does anyone know of "alternative methods/approaches", i.e.
    methods/approaches that make use of other types of information (besides
    statistical or linguistic information)?

    Kind regards,

    Koen Kerremans
