Current status

Pairs

• kaz-kir ( stems)
• tur-kir ( stems)
• tur-uzb ( stems)

Transducers

• apertium-kaz - (~94.5% coverage, 36,595 stems) - production
• apertium-kir - (~90.4% coverage, 14,424 stems) - working
• apertium-tur - (~87.3% coverage, 17,221 stems) - working
• apertium-uzb - (~82.9% coverage, 34,470 stems) - development

CG, lrx

• We should start keeping track of number of lrx rules.
• We could quantify CG progress with per-token ambiguity measures across coprora?

To-do list

morphological transducer work

vanilla transducers:

• Increase apertium-uzb coverage to >90%
  • expand morphology
  • expand lexicon
• Clean up apertium-tur, bring coverage to >90%
  • fix some phonology
  • clean up some morphotactics
  • bring in line with apertium-kaz/etc.
• Clean up apertium-kir, bring coverage to >90%
  • improve morphotactics
  • bring in line with apertium-kaz/etc.

hard forms:

• Keep lists of difficult-to-classify forms and take a shot at them periodically with concordancer

trimmed transducers:

• bring trimmed coverage to approaching 90% for each transducer

CG and lrx work

especially in need of attention:

• Apertium-uzb
• Apertium-kir

Grammar stuff

• model basic transfer4 grammar for each language (with remapping rules to the other languages)
  • Get Turkish relative "ki" to Kyrgyz relative clauses working
  • Get transfer working for both directions

Plan of attack

• Get better corpus for Uzbek
• Run transducers against corpora and add most frequently missing stems and any morphology
• Keep regression test corpus
• Run frequent WER tests and tweak grammars/dixes so that the texts consistently have <10% WER
• Try as much as possible to work on everything in parallel, but have goals defined in series
