متن کاملMorphologically-conditioned tonotactics in multilevel Maximum Entropy grammar*
Phonological sensitivity to lexical class has been addressed in the literature; at least two sets of hypotheses have been advanced regarding its codification in grammar.

متن کاملModeling Morphologically Rich Languages Using Split Words and Unstructured Dependencies
We experiment with splitting words into their stem and suffix components for modeling morphologically rich languages. We show that using a morphological analyzer and disambiguator results in a significant perplexity reduction in Turkish. We present flexible n-gram models, FlexGrams, which assume that the n−1 tokens that determine the probability of a given token can be chosen anywhere in the se...
