Abstract
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, and is more accurate than a state-of-the-art morphological tagger.- Anthology ID:
