Research on NLP for RE at Fraunhofer FKIE: A report on grouping requirements

In this report we describe the previous research done by our institute in the field of requirement analysis using different natural language processing methods. To represent the different degrees of similarity between words we implemented different methods that make use of synonyms and hyperonyms. We present the strengths of our methods and identify their weaknesses. For our future research we want to incorporate Word Embeddings as they solve most of the difficulties we faced with synonyms and hyperonyms. Copyright c 2018 by the paper's authors.
