One of the important actions in the processing of languages is part-of-speech tagging. Against of this importance, although numerous models have been presented in different languages but there is few works have been done in Persian language. In this paper, a part-of-speech tagging system on Persian corpus by using hidden Markov model is proposed. Achieving to this goal, the main aspects of Pers...

We present a dependency parser for Persian, called ParsPer, developed using the graph-based parser in the Mate Tools. The parser is trained on the entire Uppsala Persian Dependency Treebank with a specific configuration that was selected by MaltParser as the best performing parsing representation. The treebank’s syntactic annotation scheme is based on Stanford Typed Dependencies with extensions...
