Challenge: We compare morphologically rich languages with analytical languages like English due to the large vocabulary size and data sparsity.
Approach: They propose a featureless neural network architecture that generates part-of-speech tags and lemmas for sentences by using bidirectional RNNs with character-level and word-level embeddings.
Outcome: The proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art models in Czech, German, and Arabic.

Neural Factor Graph Models for Cross-lingual Morphological Tagging (P18-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing approaches to morphological tagging are limited by the assumption that tag sets overlap . a limited amount of data is available for most languages to learn these morphology taggers.
Approach: They propose a method for cross-lingual morphological tagging that relaxes this assumption . they use factorial conditional random fields with neural network potentials to smooth over superficial differences in the surface forms .
Outcome: The proposed model can smooth over superficial differences in the surface forms and generate unseen or rare tag sets.

Outcome: The proposed model scales to hundreds of low-resource languages without access to gold annotated data.
