Part-ofSpeech Tagging of Modern Hebrew Text

by Roy Bar-haim, Yoad Winter - Journal of Natural Language Engineering , 2007
"... Words in Semitic texts often consist of a concatenation of word segments, each corresponding to a Part-of-Speech (POS) category. Semitic words may be ambiguous with regard to their segmentation as well as to the POS tags assigned to each segment. When designing POS taggers for Semitic languages, a m ..."

Feature-Rich Part-of-Speech Tagging with a Cyclic Dependency Network

by Kristina Toutanova , Dan Klein, Christopher D. Manning, Yoram Singer - IN PROCEEDINGS OF HLT-NAACL , 2003
"... We present a new part-of-speech tagger that demonstrates the following ideas: (i) explicit use of both preceding and following tag contexts via a dependency network representation, (ii) broad use of lexical features, including jointly conditioning on multiple consecutive words, (iii) effective ..."

A Maximum Entropy Model for Part-Of-Speech Tagging

by Adwait Ratnaparkhi , 1996
"... This paper presents a statistical model which trains from a corpus annotated with Part-OfSpeech tags and assigns them to previously unseen text with state-of-the-art accuracy(96.6%). The model can be classified as a Maximum Entropy model and simultaneously uses many contextual "features" t ..."

TnT - A Statistical Part-Of-Speech Tagger

by Thorsten Brants , 2000
"... Trigrams'n'Tags (TnT) is an efficient statistical part-of-speech tagger. Contrary to claims found elsewhere in the literature, we argue that a tagger based on Markov models performs at least as well as other current approaches, including the Maximum Entropy framework. A recent comparison h ..."

Transformation-Based Error-Driven Learning and Natural Language Processing: A Case Study in Part-of-Speech Tagging

by Eric Brill - Computational Linguistics , 1995
"... this paper, we will describe a simple rule-based approach to automated learning of linguistic knowledge. This approach has been shown for a number of tasks to capture information in a clearer and more direct fashion without a compromise in performance. We present a detailed case study of this learni ..."

A practical part-of-speech tagger

by Doug Cutting, Julian Kupiec, Jan Pedersen, Penelope Sibun - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE THIRD CONFERENCE ON APPLIED NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING , 1992
"... We present an implementation of a part-of-speech tagger based on a hidden Markov model. The methodology enables robust and accurate tagging with few resource requirements. Only a lexicon and some unlabeled training text are required. Accuracy exceeds 96%. We describe implementation strategies and op ..."

A Simple Rule-Based Part of Speech Tagger

by Eric Brill , 1992
"... Automatic part of speech tagging is an area of natural language processing where statistical techniques have been more successful than rule- based methods. In this paper, we present a sim- ple rule-based part of speech tagger which automatically acquires its rules and tags with accuracy coinparable ..."

Text Chunking using Transformation-Based Learning

by Lance A. Ramshaw, Mitchell P. Marcus , 1995
"... Eric Brill introduced transformation-based learning and showed that it can do part-ofspeech tagging with fairly high accuracy. The same method can be applied at a higher level of textual interpretation for locating chunks in the tagged text, including non-recursive "baseNP" chunks. For ..."

Maximum entropy markov models for information extraction and segmentation

by Andrew Mccallum, Dayne Freitag , 2000
"... Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are a powerful probabilistic tool for modeling sequential data, and have been applied with success to many text-related tasks, such as part-of-speech tagging, text segmentation and information extraction. In these cases, the observations are usually modeled as multinomial ..."

Modern Information Retrieval

by Ricardo Baeza-Yates, Berthier Ribeiro-Neto , 1999

Information retrieval (IR) has changed considerably in the last years with the expansion of the Web (World Wide Web) and the advent of modern and inexpensive graphical user interfaces and mass storage devices. As a result, traditional IR textbooks have become quite out-of-date which has led to the i ..."
