One of the most refined techniques for investigating morphological processing in word recognition is the variant of the lexical decision task known as repetition priming (Stanners, Neiser, Hernon, & Hall 1979). It provides a primary source of evidence, according to Henderson (1989), of facilitation between words formed from the same morpheme (i.e., morphological relatives). Generally, target (s...

This article presents an unsupervised morphological analysis algorithm to segment words into roots and affixes. The algorithm relies on word occurrences in a given dataset. Target languages are English, Finnish, and Turkish, but the algorithm can be used to segment any word from any language given the wordlists acquired from a corpus consisting of words and word occurrences. In each iteration, ...

The task of morphological analysis is to produce a complete list of lemma+tag analyses for a given word-form. We propose a discriminative string transduction approach which exploits plain inflection tables and raw text corpora, thus obviating the need for expert annotation. Experiments on four languages demonstrate that our system has much higher coverage than a hand-engineered FST analyzer, an...

This paper presents a new Czech morphological analyser which takes an advantage of Jan Daciuk’s algorithms for minimal deterministic acyclic finite state automata. The new analyser is six times faster than the current analyser ajka concerning the proper analysis, i.e. returning possible lemmata and tags for a given word form, but for some other related tasks is the difference even bigger.

In this research phylogenetic relationships of the two genera Fragaria and Duchesnea, including four species ( Fragaria viridis, F. vesca, Duchesnea indica and D. chrysantha) and 2 of their closely related species (Potentilla reptans and P. micrantha) plus 2 Fillipendulla species ( representing outgroups) were carried out using morphological traits. Primarily, morphological evidences of 30 taxa...
