Morphological Inflection
39 papers with code • 0 benchmarks • 1 datasets
Morphological Inflection is the task of generating a target (inflected form) word from a source word (base form), given a morphological attribute, e.g. number, tense, and person etc. It is useful for alleviating data sparsity issues in translating morphologically rich languages. The transformation from a base form to an inflected form usually includes concatenating the base form with a prefix or a suffix and substituting some characters. For example, the inflected form of a Finnish stem eläkeikä (retirement age) is eläkeiittä when the case is abessive and the number is plural.

An Extended Sequence Tagging Vocabulary for Grammatical Error Correction
We extend a current sequence-tagging approach to Grammatical Error Correction (GEC) by introducing specialised tags for spelling correction and morphological inflection using the SymSpell and LemmInflect algorithms.
Morphological Inflection Generation Using Character Sequence to Sequence Learning
Morphological inflection generation is the task of generating the inflected form of a given lemma corresponding to a particular linguistic transformation.
Morphological Inflection Generation with Hard Monotonic Attention
We present a neural model for morphological inflection generation which employs a hard attention mechanism, inspired by the nearly-monotonic alignment commonly found between the characters in a word and the characters in its inflection.
Neural Transition-based String Transduction for Limited-Resource Setting in Morphology
We present a neural transition-based model that uses a simple set of edit actions (copy, delete, insert) for morphological transduction tasks such as inflection generation, lemmatization, and reinflection.
