Abstract

In this work we describe a new approach for morphological disambiguation to enable linguistic indexing for Hebrew search systems. We describe a Hebrew Morphological Disambiguator (HMD or Hemed for short) based on statistical data gathered from large Hebrew corpora. We show how to integrate HMD with a search engine to enable linguistic search for Hebrew. We report some experimental results demonstrating the the superiority of linguistic search over string-matching search, and the contribution of morphological disambiguation to the quality of search result.
