Abstract

MorP is a system for automatic word class assignment on the basis of surface features. It has a very small lexicon of form words (‰ entries), and for the rest works entirely on morphological and configurational patterns. This makes it robust and fast, and in spite of the (deliberate) restrictedness of the system, its performance reaches an average accuracy level above 91% when run on unrestricted Swedish text.
