This paper argues that the word order possibilities of a language are partly determined by the parts-of-speech system of that language.

We present a study of the word interaction networks of Bengali in the framework of complex networks. The topological properties of these networks reveal interesting insights into the morpho-syntax of the language, whereas clustering helps in the induction of the natural word classes leading to a principled way of designing POS tagsets. We compare different network construction techniques and cl...

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.
