In this approach, a phoneme is represented by a feature matrix where feature categories are fixed, hierarchically related and binary-valued; feature categorization explicitly addresses allophonic variation and feature values are weighted based on their relative prominence derived from lexical frequency measurements. The relative weight of feature values is factored into phonetic distance calculation. Two phonological distances are statistically derived from lexical frequency measurements. The phonetic distance is combined with the phonological distances to produce a single metric that quantifies cross-language phoneme distance. \u0000 \u0000The performances of target-language phoneme HMMs constructed solely with source language HMMs, first selected by the combined phonetic and phonological metric and then by a data-driven, acoustics distance-based method, are compared in context-independent automatic speech recognition (ASR) experiments. Results show that this approach consistently performs equivalently to the acoustics-based approach, confirming its effectiveness in estimating cross-language similarity between phonemes in an ASR environment.","PeriodicalId":186158,"journal":{"name":"Special Interest Group on Computational Morphology and Phonology Workshop","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124131951","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The learning algorithm, which is based on the Expectation-Maximization algorithm, gradually maximizes the likelihood of the observed forms by adjusting the parameters of a probabilistic constraint grammar and a probabilistic lexicon. The paper presents the algorithm's results on three constructed language systems with different types of hidden structure: voicing neutralization, stress, and abstract vowels. In all cases the algorithm learns the correct constraint ranking and lexicon. The paper argues that the algorithm's ability to identify correct, restrictive grammars is due in part to its explicit reliance on the Optimality Theoretic notion of Richness of the Base.","PeriodicalId":186158,"journal":{"name":"Special Interest Group on Computational Morphology and Phonology Workshop","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131626351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike previous stress learning models, the learner presented here is neither cue based (Dresher and Kaye, 1990), nor reliant on a priori Optimality-theoretic constraints (Tesar, 1998). Instead our learner exploits a property called neighborhood-distinctness, which is shared by all of the target patterns. Some consequences of this approach include a natural explanation for the occurrence of binary and ternary rhythmic patterns, the lack of higher n-ary rhythms, and the fact that, in these systems, stress always falls within a certain window of word edges.","PeriodicalId":186158,"journal":{"name":"Special Interest Group on Computational Morphology and Phonology Workshop","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129436788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The approach is based on local predictions of overlapping trigrams of output tokens, which open up a space of possible sequences; a data-driven constraint satisfaction inference step then searches for the optimal output sequence.

The underlying theory makes no assumptions on whether the language uses a lot of morphology or not, whether it is prefixing or suffixing, or whether affixes are long or short. It does however make the assumption that 1. salient affixes have to be frequent, i.e occur much more often that random segments of the same length, and that 2. words essentially are variable length sequences of random characters, e.g a character should not occur in far too many words than random without a reason, such as being part of a very frequent affix. The affix extraction algorithm uses only information from fluctation of frequencies, runs in linear time, and is free from thresholds and untransparent iterations. We demonstrate the usefulness of the approach with example case studies on typologically distant languages.","PeriodicalId":186158,"journal":{"name":"Special Interest Group on Computational Morphology and Phonology Workshop","volume":"107 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122880007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To make effective use of the dictionary for translation, however, users must be able to access it using the root form of morphologically deformed variant found in the text. Stemming and data driven methods, however, are not suitable when data is sparse. We present algorithms for discovering morphemes from limited, noisy data obtained by scanning a hard copy dictionary. Our approach is based on the novel application of the longest common substring and string edit distance metrics. Results show that these algorithms can in fact segment words into roots and affixes from the limited data contained in a dictionary, and extract affixes. This in turn allows non native speakers to perform multilingual tasks for applications where response must be rapid, and their knowledge is limited. In addition, this analysis can feed other NLP tools requiring lexicons.","PeriodicalId":186158,"journal":{"name":"Special Interest Group on Computational Morphology and Phonology Workshop","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121084971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Usually, a natural language understanding system either already knows the words that appear in the text, or is able to automatically learn relevant information about a word upon encountering it. Usually, a capable system---human or machine, knows a subset of the entire vocabulary of a language and morphological rules to determine attributes of words not seen before. Developing a knowledge base of legal words and morphological rules is an important task in computational linguistics. In this paper, we describe initial experiments following an approach based on unsupervised learning of morphology from a text corpus, especially developed for this purpose. It is a method for conveniently creating a dictionary and a morphology rule base, and is, especially suitable for highly inflectional languages like Assamese. Assamese is a major Indian language of the Indic branch of the Indo-European family of languages. It is used by around 15 million people.","PeriodicalId":186158,"journal":{"name":"Special Interest Group on Computational Morphology and Phonology Workshop","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114689907","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
