Apertium Turkic

The Apertium Turkic working group includes everyone who works on Turkic-language resources as part of the Apertium project. Resources we develop include not just Machine Translation systems, but their underlying components which can be repurposed, including morphological transducers, disambiguators, and dictionaries.

Translation Pairs

We have done quite a bit of work on Machine Translation systems involving Turkic languages. This section provides a short overview of some of them, roughly in order of how well they work.

	Francis Morton Tyers (wiki · email)	spectie, spectei, spectre			I'm a PhD student at the Universitat d'Alacant. Apart from machine translation, I'm interested in rule-based approaches to morphological analysis and disambiguation, dependency grammars and lexical selection.

Khalkha-Kazakh, Uzbek-Kyrgyz, Qaraqalpaq-Uzbek	I'm a Ph.D. student at Indiana University. I work mainly on phonetics, phonology, historical linguistics, and language documentation, and am most interested in Turkic languages. My relevant strengths are in developing computational morphologies and phonologies using lexc and twol.
