A Review on Part-of-Speech Technologies
This is an incremental review for researchers in computational linguistics, summarizing existing methods without novel contributions.
The paper reviews part-of-speech tagging technologies, addressing the problem of enabling computational linguistics methods for new languages, but does not present new results or numbers.
Developing an automatic part-of-speech (POS) tagging for any new language is considered a necessary step for further computational linguistics methodology beyond tagging, like chunking and parsing, to be fully applied to the language. Many POS disambiguation technologies have been developed for this type of research and there are factors that influence the choice of choosing one. This could be either corpus-based or non-corpus-based. In this paper, we present a review of POS tagging technologies.
