Part-of-speech (POS) tagging is the process of assigning each word of an input text into an appropriate morphological class. Automatic recognition of parts-of-speech is very important for high level NLP applications, since it would be usually infeasible to perform this task manually in practical systems. One approach to POS tagging uses morphological disambiguation which selects the most suitab...

This paper describes some important modifications to the Celex morphological database in the context of the FLaVoR project. FLaVoR aims to develop a novel modular framework for speech recognition, enabling the integration of complex linguistic knowledge sources, such as a morphological model. Morphology is a fairly unexploited linguistic information source speech recognizers could benefit from....

BACKGROUND This study sought to identify cognitive abilities that might distinguish Hong Kong Chinese kindergarten children at risk for dyslexia through either language delay or familial history of dyslexia from children who were not at risk and to examine how these abilities were associated with Chinese word recognition. The cognitive skills of interest were syllable awareness, tone detection,...

The appreciation that morphological factors are essential building blocks in anymodel of lexical organisation is nowwidely accepted.Morphological structure is a necessary component in natural languages. It introduces into a language, elements of complexity as well as factors of redundancy. From an historical perspective, the classical models of visual word recognition that were laid out two or ...

The paper describes the process of character recognition using the Multi Class SVM classifier combined with a neural Network approach. The character recognition techniques or the OCRs are either a printed document recognition or the handwritten character recognition. SVM (Support Vector Machine) classifiers often have superior recognition rates in comparison to other classification methods. In ...

Carcinosarcomas of the lung are uncommon neoplasms and are presently categorized along with sarcomatoid carcinomas in the WHO 2004 classification. Morphological recognition of individual components in a surgical specimen is usually straightforward. The respiratory epithelium is also a rare site for salivary gland type tumors. A 72-year-old lady who was investigated for an episode of hemoptysis ...

Morphological segmentation has been shown to be beneficial to a range of NLP tasks such as machine translation, speech recognition, speech synthesis and information retrieval. Recently, a number of approaches to unsupervised morphological segmentation have been proposed. This paper describes an algorithm that draws from previous approaches and combines them into a simple model for morphological...

Morphological and clinical analysis of 1177 renal biopsies from nonselected patients with essential hypertension revealed compensated benign nephrosclerosis in 775 cases. Decompensated benign nephrosclerosis was found in 251 cases, and secondary malignant nephrosclerosis was found in 151 cases. This article describes the morphological and clinical features of decompensated benign nephrosclerosi...
