In this paper, we describe a methodology used to create a test corpus for the evaluation of term extractors. This methodology relies on term annotation: terms in a corpus on automotive engineering are selected based on specific criteria pertaining to the terminological setting as well as linguistic and formal properties of terms and term variations. The test corpus accounts for the variety of ways in which terms are realized in running text, and provides a means of automatically evaluating the relevance of term candidate lists produced by term extractors. Due to the XML annotation scheme used, the corpus can be customized, e.g. by filtering out some of the annotated terms based on the type of term or term variation, or frequency. In this paper, we focus on the methodological aspects of this work.

This paper reports on two research results: ( 1) designing an English for Specific Purposes (esp) corpus architecture complete with annotations structured by regular expressions; and ( 2) a case study to test the design to cater for creating a specific vocabulary list using the compiled corpus. The first half of this study involved designing a precisely structured esp corpus from 190 veterinary medical charts with a hierarchy of the data. The data hierarchy in the corpus consists of document types, outline elements and inline elements, such as species and breed. Perl scripts extracted the data attached to veterinary-specific categories, and the extraction led to creating wordlists. The second part of the research tested the corpus mode, creating a list of commonly observed lexical items in veterinary medicine. The coverage rate of the wordlists by General Service List (gsl) and Academic Word List (awl) was tested, with the result that 66.4 percent of all lexical items appeared in gsl and awl, whereas 33.7 percent appeared in none of those lists. The corpus compilation procedures as well as the annotation scheme introduced in this study enable the compilation of specific corpora with explicit annotations, allowing teachers to have access to data required for creating esp classroom materials.
