MORFOGEN: A Morphology Grammar Builder and Dictionary
Interface Tool
areas/nlp/morph/morfogen/
This directory contains a demo version of MORFOGEN, a morphological
rule compiler and dictionary interface tool. MORFOGEN consists of a
finite state compiler, which converts inflectional and derivational
paradigms into a finite state machine, and a recognizer, which accepts
inflected forms as input and returns base forms (constrained by
inflection class information in the lexicon) as well as any morphemes
that matched during analysis. MORFOGEN can handle concatenative as
well as non-concatenative morphology, and can be used for inflecting
as well as agglutinating languages. Analyzers using MORFOGEN have
been written for English, French, Spanish, Turkish, Japanese, Korean
and Arabic.
