N-Stage transfer
Revision as of 06:47, 23 March 2009 by Francis Tyers (talk | contribs)
The idea of n-Stage transfer is to extend the apertium-interchunk so that it can output the same format as it inputs which would allow it to be called more than once, it would also be good to be able to "merge" chunks, for example NP CC NP → NP
This is something like the idea of cascaded finite-state chunking, as described by Abney (1995).
