Parallel corpora are one of the key resources in natural language processing. In spite of their importance in many multi-lingual applications, no large-scale English-Persian corpus has been made available so far, given the difficulties in its creation and the intensive labors required. In this paper, the construction process of Tehran English-Persian parallel corpus (TEP) using movie subtitles,...

We introduce PerLex, a large-coverage and freely-available morphological lexicon for the Persian language. We describe the main features of the Persian morphology, and the way we have represented it within the Alexina formalism, on which PerLex is based. We focus on the methodology we used for constructing lexical entries from various sources, as well as the problems related to typographic norm...

Ezafe construction is an idiosyncratic phenomenon in the Persian language. It is a good indicator for phrase boundaries and dependency relations but mostly does not appear in the text. In this paper, we show that adding information about Ezafe construction can give 4.6% relative improvement in dependency parsing and 9% relative improvement in shallow parsing. For evaluation purposes, Ezafe tags...

In this paper we present a rather novel unsupervised method for part of speech (below POS) disambiguation which has been applied to Persian. This method known as Iterative Improved Feedback (IIF) Model, which is a heuristic one, uses only a raw corpus of Persian as well as all possible tags for every word in that corpus as input. During the process of tagging, the algorithm passes through sever...
