Abstract
An algorithm is presented for tagging input word graphs and producing output tag graphs that are to be subjected to further syntactic processing. It is based on an extension of the basic HMM equations for tagging an input word string that allows it to handle word-graph input, where each arc has been assigned a probability. The scenario is that of some word-graph source, e.g., an acoustic speech recognizer, producing the arcs of a word graph, and the tagger will in turn produce output arcs, labelled with tags and assigned probabilities. The processing as done entirely left-to-right, and the output tag graph is constructed using a minimum of lookahead, facilitating real-time processing.- Anthology ID:
