This paper deals with morphological and part-of-speech tagging applied to manuscripts written in Middle High German. I present the results of a set of experiments that involve different levels of token normalization and dialect-specific subcorpora. As expected, tagging with “normalized”, quasi-standardized tokens performs best. Normalization improves accuracies by .–. percentage points, r...

This paper reviews research into social tagging and folksonomy (as reflected in about 180 sources published through December 2007). Methods of researching the contribution of social tagging and folksonomy are described, and outstanding research questions are presented. This is a new area of research, where theoretical perspectives and relevant research methods are only now being defined. This p...

Studies on collaborative tagging systems have focused on the benefits of tagging for Personal Information Management and for retrieval. While these effects are well documented, we pose a different hypothesis: that tagging can be used as a communicative technology, and that has the capability to coordinate and create experiences across groups of users. In this paper, we describe the way youth en...

Introduction. This paper reports an exploratory study examining how users participate in social tagging activities in a scholarly digital library environment to learn about their motivations, behaviour, and practices. Method. This study was conducted in two phases: a survey to investigate usage and attitudes of social tagging tool, and a task-based user study on tagging practices in Theses@UMal...

In Natural Language Processing, Parts-ofSpeech tagging plays a vital role in text processing for any sort of language processing and understanding by machine. This paper proposes a rule based Parts-ofSpeech tagger for Bangla with layered tagging. There are 4 levels of Tagging which also handles the tagging of Multi verb expressions.
