Notes:
A lexical chain is a sequence of words that are related to each other in meaning. These words may be connected through a variety of semantic relationships, such as synonymy (words with similar meanings), antonymy (words with opposite meanings), hyponymy (words with more specific meanings), or meronymy (words with more general meanings).
For example, in the sentence “The cat chased the mouse around the room,” the words “cat,” “mouse,” “chase,” and “room” form a lexical chain because they are related in meaning. The words “cat” and “mouse” are related through antonymy (opposite meanings), and the words “chase” and “room” are related through their association with the other words in the chain.
Lexical chains can be useful for a variety of language processing tasks, such as text summarization, information retrieval, and natural language understanding. They can also be used to help identify the main ideas and themes in a piece of text.
Lexical chains can be used in a variety of natural language processing tasks, such as theme extraction, summarization, and entity sentiment analysis.
In theme extraction, lexical chains can be used to score themes by identifying the words and phrases that are most closely related in meaning. This can help to identify the main ideas and themes in a piece of text.
In summarization, lexical chains can be used to pick the most representative sentences by identifying the words and phrases that are most important or central to the meaning of the text.
In entity sentiment analysis, lexical chains can be used to associate sentiment-bearing phrases with the entities themselves. For example, if a person is mentioned in a piece of text along with words or phrases that express positive sentiment (e.g., “great,” “amazing,” “wonderful”), the sentiment of the person might be scored as positive.

The company claims to be the industry leader in translating text into profitable decisions and offers both cloud-based and on-premises NLP and machine learning solutions.
Lexalytics’s text analytics tools are designed to help businesses extract insights from large amounts of unstructured data. Lexical chaining could be used to identify the main themes and ideas in a piece of text by linking together words and phrases that are related in meaning. Lexalytics’s products include summarization capabilities, which could use lexical chaining to identify the most important or representative sentences in a piece of text. Lexalytics offers a sentiment analysis system that uses natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning techniques to assign sentiment scores to text. Lexical chaining could be used to associate sentiment-bearing phrases with specific entities (e.g., people, organizations, products) mentioned in the text.
- Automatic text generation is the process of using computers to generate text automatically, without the need for human input. This can be done using a variety of techniques, such as natural language processing (NLP), machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI). Automatic text generation can be used for a wide range of applications, including language translation, content creation, and data summarization.
