Modularity

To what extent is the apertium system modular? To be specific: In our work we do not use agglutinative paradigms, but cascaded finite-state transducers (the Sámi languages we analyse have all to much non-concatenative morphology to be treated with such methods). We use Xerox tools, but the open-source sfst tools would be a possible alternative. Also, our disambiguation and syntactic analysis does not use HMM, but rather constraint grammar (the vislcg variety). Now, the question is to what extent the system is modular enough to take out one or more apertium component(s) and replace them with other components? Trondtr 14:03, 24 February 2008 (UTC).
