An Application Oriented Arabic Morphological Analyzer (original) (raw)

2011

Abstract

Morphological analysis is an important step in natural language processing and its various applications. Each kind of these applications needs a certain balance between: performance, accuracy, and generality of solutions (i.e. getting all possible roots); while we focus on performance with a good accuracy in Information retrieval applications, we try to achieve high accuracy in systems like pos-tagger and machine translation, and both high accuracy and high generality in systems like language learning systems and Arabic lexical dictionaries. In this paper, we describe our approach to build a flexible and application oriented Arabic morphological analyzer; this approach is designed to satisfy various requirements of most applications which need morphological processing. It also provides a separate stage (Original Letters Detection Algorithm) which can be plugged easily in any Other morphological analyzer to improve its performance, and with no negative effect on its reliability.
