Abstract
A method of processing text within a natural language understanding system can include applying a first tokenization technique to a sentence using a statistical tokenization model. A second tokenization technique using a named entity can be applied to the sentence when the first tokenization technique does not extract a needed token according to a class of the sentence. A token determined according to at least one of the tokenization techniques can be output.
