Papers

Finite State Machine Pattern-Root Arabic Morphological Generator, Analyzer and Diacritizer (2020)
The authors build FSAM, a rule-based finite-state system for undiacritized MSA. It has three layers: a templatic automaton (root plus pattern), a concatenative automaton (prefix, stem, suffix), and a rewrite transducer for orthography. The same network is used to analyse, to generate from a root, and to diacritize…
Quasi-Synchronous Grammars: Alignment by Soft Projection of Syntactic Dependencies (2006)
The paper defines quasi-synchronous grammar (QG). Given the parse tree of the source sentence, a QG builds a monolingual grammar over target trees. The target tree need not be isomorphic to the source. Each target node is aligned to at most one source node, and the allowed relations between a target parent-child pair…
