Cooperatively Evaluating Portuguese Morphology
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the first attempt to evaluate morphological analysers for Portuguese with an evaluation contest. It emphasizes the options that had to be taken and that highlight considerable disagreement among the participating groups. It describes the trial intended to prepare the real contest in June 2003, its goals and preliminary results.

The Role of Morphology in Generating High-Quality Pronunciation Lexica for Regional Variants of Portuguese
Grapheme to phoneme (GTP) systems for languages such as English, German, and Korean have been shown to achieve better performance rates with the inclusion of a morpho-phonological preprocessing component. While semiautomatic and automatic GTP approaches for Portuguese continue to achieve steady gains, such algorithms do not take morphology into account, despite a growing need to do so, based in...
متن کاملExploring the relative importance of spatial and environmental variation on the craniometrics of the modern Portuguese.
Previous research on the causes of craniometric variation within and among human populations has invoked both genetic and environmental explanations. Recent studies of modern populations in the United States and Portugal, among other populations, suggest that changes in environmental conditions have resulted in significant changes in cranial morphology. While similar changes in cranial morpholo...
متن کاملTagging Portuguese With A Spanish Tagger
We describe a knowledge and resource light system for an automatic morphological analysis and tagging of Brazilian Portuguese.1 We avoid the use of labor intensive resources; particularly, large annotated corpora and lexicons. Instead, we use (i) an annotated corpus of Peninsular Spanish, a language related to Portuguese, (ii) an unannotated corpus of Portuguese, (iii) a description of Portugue...

متن کاملLow Genetic Diversity and High Invasion Success of Corbicula fluminea (Bivalvia, Corbiculidae) (Müller, 1774) in Portugal
The Asian clam, Corbicula fluminea, is an invasive alien species (IAS) originally from Asia that has spread worldwide causing major ecological and economic impacts in aquatic ecosystems. Here, we evaluated C. fluminea genetic (using COI mtDNA, CYTb mtDNA and 18S rDNA gene markers), morphometric and sperm morphology variation in Portuguese freshwater ecosystems. The COI marker revealed a single ...
