For a language pair such as Chinese and Korean that belong to entirely different language families in terms of typology and genealogy, finding the correspondences is quite obscure in word alignment. We present annotation guidelines for Chinese-Korean word alignment through contrastive analysis of morpho-syntactic encodings. We discuss the differences in verbal systems that cause most of linking...

dunaliella is a green halotolerant microalga, which has several industrial applications e.g. β-carotene production. identification of different dunaliella species has been carried out by morpho-physiological and recently molecular studies. to achieve an improved understanding of taxonomy, these studies are required to be in linkage. the present study describes molecular and specific morpho-phys...

This paper shows that clausal possession in Isbukun Bunun, a Formosan language, involves two distinct structures with one single thematic interpretation. Although thematically identical, the are not derived via agreement/movement from underlying structure. To best capture (morpho)syntactic patterns within and beyond phenomenon, too-many-structures problem is analyzed as involving syntactic head...

This paper presents two approaches to Portuguese anaphor resolution, one based on a morpho-syntactic information and other on semantic features. We present a corpus based evaluation, focusing especially on anaphoric definite descriptions, which includes direct, indirect and associative anaphors.

In this paper we address the issue of automatically assigning information status to discourse entities. Using an annotated corpus of conversational English and exploiting morpho-syntactic and lexical features, we train a decision tree to classify entities introduced by noun phrases as old, mediated, or new. We compare its performance with hand-crafted rules that are mainly based on morpho-synta...

Standard methods for part-of-speech tagging suffer from data sparseness when used on highly inflectional languages (which require large lexical tagset inventories). For this reason, a number of alternative methods have been proposed over the years. One of the most successful methods used for this task, FDOOHG 7LHUHG 7DJJLQJ 7XIL , 1999), exploits a reduced set of tags derived by removing severa...

The goal of Morpho Challenge 2009 was to evaluate unsupervised algorithms that provide morpheme analyses for words in different languages and in various practical applications. Morpheme analysis is particularly useful in speech recognition, information retrieval and machine translation for morphologically rich languages where the amount of different word forms is very large. The evaluations con...

Evaluation of machine translation (MT) into morphologically rich languages (MRL) has not been well studied despite posing many challenges. In this paper, we explore the use of embeddings obtained from different levels of lexical and morpho-syntactic linguistic analysis and show that they improve MT evaluation into an MRL. Specifically we report on Arabic, a language with complex and rich morpho...

The aim of the study is to elaborate on the procedure needed in order to analyze morpho-syntactically the typing-error queries submitted in Greek during the search process. In the context of our analysis a failed query is a query which returned no hits. The analysis showed that failed queries represent 36% of the submitted queries. More specifically, 19.6% of failed queries occurred due to typi...

The aim of the study was to determine the structure of morpho-functional models that determine the level of sports performance in three consecutive stages of training of young badminton players. In the course of the study, 3 groups of young badminton players were examined: 40 preadolescents aged 11-13, 32 adolescents aged 14-16, and 24 adolescents aged 17-19. The scope of the study involved bas...
