in this research, it has been tried to survey certain persian sentences and based on the linguists' ideas the existence of the number phrase in definition phrase in the persian language is demonstrated. then it has been attempted to show that the position of the plural morpheme in persian, quite similar to the other languages, is the core of the number phrase. along with surveying the feat...

Morpho Challenge 2007 contained an evaluation of unsupervised morpheme analysis algorithms using information retrieval experiments utilizing data available in CLEF. The objective of the challenge was to design statistical machine learning algorithms that discover which morphemes (smallest individually meaningful units of language) words consist of. Ideally, these are basic vocabulary units suit...

This paper describes a grapheme-to-phoneme conversion method using phoneme connectivity and CCV conversion rules. The method consists of mainly four modules including morpheme normalization, phrase-break detection , morpheme to phoneme conversion and phoneme connectivity check. The morpheme normalization is to replace non-Korean symbols into standard Korean graphemes. The phrase-break detector ...

This paper presents the evaluation and results of Competition 2 (information retrieval experiments) in the Morpho Challenge 2008. Competition 1 (a comparison to linguistic gold standard) is described in a companion paper. In Morpho Challenge 2008 the goal was to search and evaluate unsupervised machine learning algorithms that provide morpheme analysis for words in different languages. The morp...

This research investigates three ongoing language changes in Japanese: sa-Insertion, ra-Deletion, and re-Insertion, in light of the “change from above/below” (Labov 1990). Sa-Insertion involves a process, which adds an extra -asto the causative morpheme, yielding a double causative construction (1). Ra-Deletion involves a process which deletes -rain the potential morpheme (2). Re-Insertion invo...

The paper discusses the history and implications of the so-called “morpheme” studies. A brief overview of L1 research in this regard is followed by a more detailed discussion of L2 research. Thereafter, the paper explores the impact of three putative determinants of acquisition order: semantic complexity, input frequency, and native language transfer. The possible role of these determinants in ...

To solve the unknown morpheme problem in Japanese morphological analysis, we previously proposed a novel framework of online unknown morpheme acquisition and its implementation. This framework poses a previously unexplored problem, online unknown morpheme detection. Online unknown morpheme detection is a task of finding morphemes in each sentence that are not listed in a given lexicon. Unlike i...
