Papers with St. Lawrence Island Yupik
Measuring the Value of Linguistics: A Case Study from St. Lawrence Island Yupik (P19-2)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a recent study has called into question the utility of linguistics in the development of computational systems. |
| Approach: | a new research proposes to integrate linguistics into a neural morphological analyzer for a polysynthetic language . the researchers propose to use linguistic elements to improve performance in low-resource settings . |
| Outcome: | The proposed analysis shows that linguistics can improve performance in low-resource and high-resolution settings. |
Community lexical access for an endangered polysynthetic language: An electronic dictionary for St. Lawrence Island Yupik (N19-4)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a new electronic dictionary for St. Lawrence Island Yupik is developed to facilitate language-learning on the island . the endangered language is spoken primarily on St. lisa's St.liss island, Alaska . |
| Approach: | They propose a morphologically-aware electronic dictionary for St. Lawrence Island Yupik . the dictionary is set in an uncluttered interface and uses HTML, Javascript, and CSS . |
| Outcome: | The proposed dictionary is set in an uncluttered interface and is available in English and in Yupik . it is based on the morphologically-aware version of the Badten et al. paper dictionary . |
Improved Finite-State Morphological Analysis for St. Lawrence Island Yupik Using Paradigm Function Morphology (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | St. Lawrence Island Yupik is an endangered polysynthetic language of the Bering Strait region . linguistic fieldwork observed substantial support within the Yupis for language revitalization . |
| Approach: | They propose a finite-state morphological analyzer for the endangered Yupik language . they use the Paradigm Function Morphology theory of morphology to evaluate the results . |
| Outcome: | The proposed morphological analyzer outperforms existing analyzers in accuracy and coverage rates across multiple datasets. |
