中文摘要：

科技名词中文译名标准化和规范化工作是推动我国科技进步和科学知识传播的重要基础。新的科学概念和技术名词层出不穷，如何及时发现并确定新生术语的中文译名是一项普遍的社会需求。介绍了一套全新的天文学英语新词自动提取系统。该系统综合使用脚本过滤、术语识别、正则表达匹配等多种方法，能够自动追踪ArXiv论文数据库的更新，分析天文学论文的内容，生成推荐术语列表，从而将学科专家从繁重的科技新词收集整理工作中解放出来。把有限的精力集中到更能体现专业素养的新词审定工作当中。这个系统将为推动天文学等基础学科的新词收集，乃至学科标准化等工作发挥积极作用。

英文摘要：

Standardized Chinese translations of scientific terms are important for scientific research as well as science communication. Identifying new English terms in time is a basic requirement for standardized translations. In this paper we introduce a system that is designed for automated extraction of astronomical English terms from scientific publications. The system combines several techniques, e.g. the script filter, automatic term recognition, and regular-expression match. It can automatically trace updates of the arXiv paper database, analyze contents of papers, and generate lists of candidates of new terms. By using the system the China National Committee for Terms in Sciences and Technologies can focus on deciding Chinese translations of terms instead of spending time on term collection. We expect the system to contribute substantially to standardization of Chinese translations of astronomical English terms in the near future and promote other activities of standardization in astronomy.
