Tasks

XML format

Compiler

Code

  • Read the fomacg code[1] and understand what it does.
  • Add comments do a little refactoring (e.g. separate function for creating @*word@* FSTs).
  • Check and test if it works on all grammars, fix it if it isn't.

Research

  • Decrease the number of rules applied (see in the proposal).
  • When and how can rules be merged?

Miscellaneous / Extra

Hungarian CG grammar

Write a simple CG grammar for Hungarian, somewhere around 50-150 rules.

  • Read Pasi Tapnainen's The Constraint Grammar Parser CG-2.
  • Read the contents of cg_material.zip.
  • Study the CG grammar of an Apertium language.
  • Write a Hungarian grammar that covers the sentences in this sample file
  • The tags will be based on those in KR-code[2]. See the next task.

Hunmorph converter

Write a converter from ocamorph's output to Apertium's format.

  • Again, use the sentences in this sample file as reference.
  • While a C-based converter would definitely be possible, I opted for a foma-based (xfst -- lexc?) implementation, so that this task also serves for practice.

ATT -> lttoolbox compiler

Write an ATT FST format reading for lttoolbox. A useful practice for moving from foma to lttoolbox. Since lttoolbox lacks some of the functionaty needed, the compiler will most likely stay in foma, but lttoolbox might work as the runtime component.

  • ATT format
  • "<spectie> the ATT->lttoolbox thing should be a simple as : beer = t.insertSingleTransduction(alphabet(L'e',L'e'), beer);"
