Abstract

AbstractWeb provides a large-scale corpus for researchers to study the language usages in real world. Developing a web-scale corpus needs not only a lot of computation resources, but also great efforts to handle the large variations in the web texts, such as character encoding in processing Chinese web texts. In this paper, we aim to develop a web-scale Chinese word N-gram corpus with parts of speech information called NTU PN-Gram corpus using the ClueWeb09 dataset. We focus on the character encoding and some Chinese-specific issues. The statistics about the dataset is reported. We will make the resulting corpus a public available resource to boost the Chinese language processing.
