چکیده

Part-of-speech tagging based on a probabilistic model requires ne tuning of the language model for successful results. Though numerous part-of-speech taggers based on this technology have now been developed for a range of natural languages, little is reported on how the model was tuned. Elaborating such a model for a new language or for a new set of tags requires appropriate tools to support the iterative reenement cycle and to successively evaluate the results. In this paper we present a exible set of tagging tools for developing a new language model, adapting an existing model to a new corpus and experimenting with diierent lexical input and corpus tagsets. 1 Background The interest in part-of-speech (POS) tagging has increased considerably over the past decade and successful systems have been reported on for a number of languages (cf. The focus has been on attaining a high level of accuracy (at least 95%) with a given tagset rather than on exible general purpose tools. The taggers are typically developed for a single natural language and incorporate a number of language-speciic assumptions. The resources they use, including the lexical lists and the corpus tags are often embedded in the program and diicult to extend or modify. POS tagging based on a Hidden Markov model (HMM) is now commonly accepted as an eeective technique for a range of natural languages. The adequacy and accuracy of a tagger based on such a model is not inherent in the technique employed, nor

An improved joint model: POS tagging and dependency parsing

Dependency parsing is a way of syntactic parsing and a natural language that automatically analyzes the dependency structure of sentences, and the input for each sentence creates a dependency graph. Part-Of-Speech (POS) tagging is a prerequisite for dependency parsing. Generally, dependency parsers do the POS tagging task along with dependency parsing in a pipeline mode. Unfortunately, in pipel...

Abstract: Part-Of-Speech (POS) tagging is essential work for many models and methods in other areas in natural language processing such as machine translation, spell checker, text-to-speech, automatic speech recognition, etc. So far, high accurate POS taggers have been created in many languages. In this paper, we focus on POS tagging in the Persian language. Because of problems in Persian POS t...

In this paper, the role of Part-of-Speech (POS) tagging for parsing in automatic processing of the Persian language is studied. To this end, the impact of the quality of POS tagging as well as the impact of the quantity of information available in the POS tags on parsing are studied. To reach the goals, three parsing scenarios are proposed and compared. In the first scenario, the parser assigns...

Part of speech tagging (POS tagging) is an ongoing research in natural language processing (NLP) applications. The process of classifying words into their parts of speech and labeling them accordingly is known as part-of-speech tagging, POS-tagging, or simply tagging. Parts of speech are also known as word classes or lexical categories. The purpose of POS tagging is determining the grammatical ...

Experimental Analysis of Malayalam Pos Tagger Using Epic Framework in Scala

In Natural Language Processing (NLP), one of the well-studiedproblems under constant exploration is part-ofspeech tagging or POS tagging or grammatical tagging. The task is to assign labels or syntactic categories such as noun, verb, adjective, adverb, preposition etc. to the words in a sentence or in an un-annotated corpus. This paper presents a simple machine learning based experimental study...
