Abstract

In this article we present a simple method to extract Spanish nouns with the linguistic property of "human" animacy. We describe a nonsupervised method based on lexical patterns and on a person name list enlarged from a collection of newspaper texts. Results were obtained from the Web filters and estimation methods are proposed to validate them.
