Feature unification for morphological parsing in Bangla
(BRAC University, 2004)This paper describes a Feature Unification Based Word Grammar model for the morphological parsing of Bangla words. While normal morphological parsing strategy is adequate to decompose a word into morphemes, it is not able ... -
Morphological parsing of Bangla wods using PC-KIMMO
(BRAC University, 2004)This paper describes Morphological parsing of Bangla words using PC-KIMMO, based on Kimmo Koskeniemil's model of two-level Morphology. There are three sections in the PC-KIMMO: rules section lexicon section and grammar ... -
Morphological analysis of inflecting compound words in Bangla
(BRAC University, 2005)The addition of inflectional suffixes in Bangla com-pound words is fairly complex. A compound is a word that is formed by two or more different words acting as a single entity. One of the key distinguishing features of ... -
Teaching compiler development to undergraduates using a template based approach
(BRAC University, 2005)Compiler Design remains one of the most dreaded courses in any undergraduate Computer Science curriculum, due in part to the complexity and the breadth of the material covered in a typical 14-15 week semester time frame. ... -
T12: an advanced text input system with phonetic support for mobile devices
(BRAC University, 2005)The popular T9 text input system for mobile devices uses a predictive dictionary-based disambiguation scheme, enabling a user to type in commonly-used words with low overhead. We present a new text input system called ... -
A double metaphone encoding for approximate name searching and matching in Bangla
(BRAC University, 2005)Almost any word can be a Bangali name, and the name in turn is often spelled in many different ways, all of which are considered correct and interchangeable. The reason for the spelling complication is two-fold: (1) there ... -
A double metaphone encoding for Bangla and its application in spelling checker
(BRAC University, 2005)We present a Double Metaphone encoding for Bangla that can be used by spelling checkers to improve the quality of suggestions for misspelled words. The complex rules of Bangla spelling present a significant challenge in ... -
A comprehensive roman (English)-to-Bangla transliteration scheme
(BRAC University, 2006)A transliteration scheme from Roman (English) to Bangla can help increase the use of Bangla in essential and diverse computing areas such as word processing, Internet and mobile communication and information query and ... -
Rule based automated pronunciation generator
(BRAC University, 2006)This paper presents a rule based ronunciation generator for Bangla words. It takes a word and finds the pronunciations for the graphemes of the word. A grapheme is a unit in writing that cannot be analyzed into smaller ... -
JKimmo: A Multilingual computational mophology frame work for PC-KIMMO
(BRAC University, 2006)Morphological analysis is of fundamental interest in computational linguistics and language processing. While there are established morphological analyzers for mostly Western and a few other languages using localized ... -
Skew angle detection of bangla script using radon transform
(BRAC University, 2006)Skew angle detection and correction an integral part of any OCR system. Without proper skew correction, the performance of an OCR will simply not be acceptable for most scanned images. We propose an innovative method for ... -
A comprehensive Bangla spelling checker
(BRAC University, 2006)We present a comprehensive Bangla spelling checker that improves the quality of suggestions for misspelled words. The complex rules for Bangla spelling presents a significant challenge in producing suggestions for a ... -
Developing a computational grammar for Bengali using the HPSG formalism
(BRAC University, 2006)This paper describes the first phase of developing a computational grammar for Bengali using the Head- Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG) formalism. The HPSG formalism is a highly developed framework that combines ... -
N-gram based statistical grammar checker for Bangla and English
(Center for research on Bangla language processing (CRBLP), BRAC University, 2006)This paper describes a statistical grammar checker, which considers the n-gram based analysis of words and POS tags to decide whether the sentence is grammatically correct or not. We employed this technique for both Bangla ... -
Collaborative lexicon development for Bangla
(BRAC University, 2006)This paper addresses the issue of building a Bangla lexicon with a collaborative effort through stand alone application and web based interface. The words in the lexicon will be annotated with a combination of tags addressing ... -
Comparion of different POS tagging technique (N-Gram, HMM and Brill's tagger) for Bangla
(BRAC University, 2006)There are different approaches to the problem of assigning each word of a text with a parts-of-speech tag, which is known as Part-Of-Speech (POS) tagging. In this paper we compare the performance of a few POS tagging ... -
Minimally segmenting performance Bangla optical character recognition using Kohonen network
(BRAC University, 2006)This paper presents a method to use Kohonen neural network based classifier in Bangla Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system, providing much higher performance than the traditional neural network based ones. It describes ... -
Analysis of and observations from a Bangla News Corpus
(BRAC University, 2006)In this paper we present the compilation methodology and some statistical analysis on a Bangla news corpus-“Prothom-Alo”, which is the first of its kind for Bangla. We compare some of the statistics with the CIIL Bangla ... -
Analysis of N-Gram based text categorization for Bangla in a newspaper
(BRAC University, 2006)In this paper, we study the outcome of using ngram based algorithm for Bangla text categorization. To analyze the efficiency of this methodology we used one year Prothom-Alo news corpus. Our results show that n-grams of ... -
