Abstract

This paper proposes a new method of Chinese word segmentation based on proportional analogy and majority voting. First, we introduce an analogy-based method for solving the word segmentation problem. Second, we show how to use majority voting to make the decision on where to segment. The preliminary results show that this approach compares well with other segmenters reported in previous studies. As an important and original feature, our method does not need any pretraining or lexical knowledge.
