We propose to view morphological tags as composite labels\nand explicitly model their internal structure in a neural sequence tagger. For\nthis, we explore three different neural architectures and compare their\nperformance with both CRF and simple neural multiclass baselines. We evaluate\nour models on 49 languages and show that the neural architecture that models\nthe morphological labels as sequences of morphological category values performs\nsignificantly better than both baselines establishing state-of-the-art results\nin morphological tagging for most languages.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1810.08815v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1810.08815v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"modeling-composite-labels-for-neural","repo_url":"https://github.com/AleksTk/seq-morph-tagger","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"tf","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"morphological-tagging","task_name":"Morphological Tagging"},{"task_slug":"pos","task_name":"POS"},{"task_slug":"pos-tagging","task_name":"POS Tagging"},{"task_slug":"tag","task_name":"TAG"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"crf","method_name":"CRF"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
