Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a computational model of Latvian morphology provides a formal structure for Latvian word form inflection . the model explicitly enumerates and handles the many exceptions to the general Latvian inflation principles . |
| Approach: | They propose a computational model of Latvian morphology that provides a formal structure for Latvian word form inflection. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model provides a good coverage for modern Latvian literary language and potential to extend to Latgalian language. |

| Challenge: | Currently the dataset consists of 6432 words linked in 5528 synsets . the goal is to provide a structured lexical-semantic resource for Latvian word sense disambiguation . |
| Approach: | They propose to use Princeton's word sense definition and sense linking principles to create a Latvian wordnet . they use corpus evidence and an online dictionary to build a lexical-semantic resource . |
| Outcome: | The proposed resource is based on the Princeton WordNet and is available in Latvian . the initial portion of the data is available for download . |
