Pharos Speller: Speltoetser en Woordafbreker vir Afrikaans

The Wisdom of the PHAROS.

Towards Processable Afrikaans

In this paper we discuss a number of structural problems that we face when we design a machine-oriented controlled natural language for Afrikaans taking the underlying principles of Attempto Controlled English (ACE) and Processable English (PENG) as a starting point.

Universal Dependencies for Afrikaans

The Universal Dependencies (UD) project aims to develop a consistent annotation framework for treebanks across many languages. In this paper we present the UD scheme for Afrikaans and we describe the conversion of the AfriBooms treebank to this new format. We will compare the conversion to UD to the conversion of related syntactic structures in typologically similar languages.

Pharos: accurate and decentralised network coordinate system

Network coordinates (NC) system is an efficient mechanism for Internet distance prediction with scalable measurements. The intrinsical cause for the unsatisfactory accuracy of the simulation-based NC algorithms has been identified. Then Pharos, a fully decentralised and hierarchical scheme, is proposed to solve this problem. Pharos leverages multiple coordinate sets at different distance scales...

A Morphological Parser For Afrikaans

The paper presents an integrated environment for morphological analysis of word-forms of the Slovene language. The system consists of a lexicon input and maintenance module, a lexicon output module for accessing lexical word forms, a two-level rule compiler and a two-level morphological analysis/synthesis unit. The basic paradigms and lexical alternations of word forms are handled by the lexico...
