GSOC 2013
I'm working with Apertium for the GSoC 2013, on the project "Sliding Window Part of Speech Tagger for Apertium".
my proposal is here: Proposal
SVN repo
1. the tagger https://svn.code.sf.net/p/apertium/svn/branches/apertium-swpost/apertium
2. en-es language pair(for experiment) https://svn.code.sf.net/p/apertium/svn/branches/apertium-swpost/apertium-en-es
3. es-ca language pair(for experiment) https://svn.code.sf.net/p/apertium/svn/branches/apertium-swpost/apertium-es-ca
Usage
Command line
HMM tagger usage: apertium-tagger -t 8 es.dic es.crp apertium-en-es.es.tsx es-en.prob.new apertium-tagger -g es-en.prob.new SW tagger usage: apertium-tagger -w -t 8 es.dic es.crp apertium-en-es.es.tsx es-en.prob.new apertium-tagger -w -g es-en.prob.new
Tagging Experiments
1. run the whole training and evaluation pipeline
To execute a whole training and evaluation procedure, please refer to these 2 scripts:
apertium-en-es/es_step1_preporcess.sh
apertium-en-es/es_step2_train_tag_eval.sh
2. evaluation scripts
In the apertium-swpost/apertium-xx-yy (e.g. apertium-en-es) package, we have 2 tiny scripts, that do the evaluation, and are called by es_step2_train_tag_eval.sh:
apertium-en-es/es-tagger-data/extract_word_pos.py
apertium-en-es/es-tagger-data/eval.py
3. Experimetal Results

Detailed progress
2013-09-03
1. Finished the report, 1st version
2013-08-27
1. Finished experimenting HMM and LSW tagger without using rules.
2. Managed to use CG together with LSW tagger.
2013-08-09
1. Finished hand-tagging the English test set.
2. Experiment different window settings, and text amount on English.
3. Experiment to randomize training text for Spanish.
4. Further experiment the -1,+1,+2 window.
2013-08-01
1. Check the algorithm and analyse cases
2. Hand-tag the rest 20% ambiguous words that were not mapped automatically.
2013-07-26
1. Study the usage of the TnT tagger.
2. Study the relationship between tagset of the TnT tagger and that of the Apertium tagger.
3. Develop algorithms to do automatic mapping between the two tagsets, 80% of the ambiguous words are successfully mapped.
2013-07-15
1. Follow the training and tagging procedure step by step, using a small corpus of several sentences, so that parameters can be calculated by hand.
2. No significant bugs found during the training and tagging procedure.
2013-07-10
1. Managed to get the HMM-supervised running.
2. Do experiments with window +1+2, -1+1+2. The results show that the RIGHT contexts are more important than the left contexts.
2013-07-06
1. Reconstruct 'tagger_data' class, using INHERITANCE for HMM and LSW respectively.
2. Make relevant changes to the surroundings, including tagger, tsx_reader, hmm, lswpost, filter-ambiguity-class, apply-new-rules, read-words, etc.
3. DELETE the swpost tagger, which serves as an intermedia implementaion, replaced by the final lsw tagger, which works fine and could support rules.
2013-07-03
1. update evaluation scripts, putting the unknown words into consideration. Now the evaluation script can report Recall, Precision, and F1-Score.
2. experiment with different amounts of text for training the LSW tagger.
3. experiment with different window sizes for training the LSW tagger.
4. experiments show strange results.
5. checking implementation, in case of potential bugs.
2013-06-28
1. add find_similar_ambiguity_class for the tagging procedure. So a new ambiguity class won't crash the tagger down.
2. bugfix to the normalize factor. This makes the things right, but no improvements are gained to the quality.
3. replace the SW tagger with the LSW tagger. So the "-w" option is owned by the LSW tagger.
2013-06-23
1. implement a light sliding-window tagger. This tagger is based on the SW tagger, with "parameter reduction" described in the 2005 paper.
2. add rule support for light-sw tagger. The rules help to improve the tagging quality.
2013-06-21
1. add ZERO define. Because there are some double comparisons, we need a relatively precise threshold.
2. bug fix for the initial procedure and iteration formula.
3. check function style so the new code is consistent to the existing code.
2013-06-20
1. use heap space for 3-dimensional parameters. This makes it possible to train successfully without manually setting the 'stack' environment.
2. add retrain() function for SW tagger. The logic of the SW tagger's retrain is the same as that of the HMM tagger. It append several iterations based on the current parameters.
3. bugfix, avoid '-nan' parameters.
4. the tagger_data write only non-ZERO values. This saves a lot of disk space, reducing the parameter file from 100M to 200k.
2013-06-19
1. add print_para_matrix() for debugging in SW tagger. This funciton only prints non-ZERO parameters in the 3d matrix.
2. add support for debug, EOS, and null_flush. This makes the tagger work stable when called by other programs.
2013-06-17
1. a deep follow into the morpho_stream class, and make sense its memembers and functions.
2. refine the reading procedure of the SW tagger, so that the procedure is simpler and more stable.
2013-06-13
1. fix a bug in tagging procedure, where the initial tag score should be -1 instead of 0.
2013-06-12
1. add option "-w" for sw tagger. The option "-w" is not a drop-in replacement to the current HMM tagger, but an extension. So the default tagger for Apertium will still be the HMM tagger. If the "-w" option is specified, the the SW tagger will be used.
2. add support for judging the end of morpho_stream.
3. The first working version is OK:)
2013-06-11
1. Fix the bug of last version, mainly because of the read() method in 'TSX reader'. The read and write methods in the tsx_reader and tagger_data are re-implemented, because they are different from those for the HMM.
2. Implement the compression part of the SW tagger probabilities. These parameters are stored in a 3-d array.
3. Doing some debugging on the HMM tagger, in order to see how a tagger should work togethor with the whole pipeline.
2013-06-10
1. Implement a basic version SW tagger. But there are bugs between them.
2. The training and tagging procedures strictly follow the 2004 paper.
2013-05-30
1. Start the project.
