Abstract
As already stated in Chapter 8, a linguistic tagger can consist of the following modules:1
-
Tokenizer (identification of words and punctuation marks)
-
Morphological analyser (introduction of ambiguities)
-
lexical analyser
-
analyser of unknown words (‘guesser’)
-
-
Morphological disambiguator (ambiguity resolution)
-
grammar
-
heuristic grammar(s)
-
Our attention is on the last main item on the list, the morphological disambiguator. We will describe what we call the linguistic paradigm in tagging: disambiguation of morphological ambiguities is accomplished by means of constraint rules proposed by a grammarian.2
