Abstract

The increase in the amount of electronically stored textual data over the past decade has opened new communication possibilities in which users significantly participate in services. The result is a variety of digital content services in which new formats, such as free text form, have become particularly accepted and attractive. To support user service interaction, services must be able to obtain specific information from user defined texts. This paper proposes a model for location name extraction, constructed using a neural network trained with a Backpropagation learning algorithm. An analysis of location name interpretation, the semantic and binding problem in Croatian, as well as language specific variations are given.
