| Challenge: | Linked data (LD) is a popular way of publishing lexical resources, but technical limitations and potentialities of LD are not understood as they should be. |
| Approach: | They propose to use the Semantic Web Rule Language to encode morphological patterns for a lexicographic publication as linked open data. |
| Outcome: | The proposed language allows the automatic derivation of inflectional variants of entries in the lexicon. |

| Challenge: | Using the universal dependencies framework, we address the need for a universal representation of morphological analysis that can capture alternative morphology of surface tokens and is compatible with the segmentation and morphologic annotation guidelines prescribed for UD treebanks. |
| Approach: | They propose a new annotation format for word lattices that represent morphological analyses and a resource that obeys this format for a range of typologically different languages. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can capture alternative morphological analyses of surface tokens and is compatible with the segmentation and morphology guidelines prescribed for UD treebanks. |
