Greetings Apertiumers! I have two updates to report:
First, I have rewritten the postgenerator (again), this time as part of apertium-separable (and so not breaking the old one, unlike last time), and in such a way that postgenerator rules can both match on lemma and tags in addition to surface forms and iteratively apply to their own output. This is available as part of apertium-separable 0.7.0 and is documented at https://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Postgenerator Second, I just added a pair of modules which move capitalization information into word-bound blanks at the beginning of the pipeline and then reapply them according to LRX-like rules at the end of the pipeline, allowing all intermediate modules to operate solely on dictionary case. This should be available after the next nightly build (i.e. tomorrow) in apertium 3.9.0, and is documented at https://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Capitalization_restoration If anyone has questions or would like help trying this out for a language pair or if I missed something in the documentation, let me know. Thanks to Kevin Unhammer and Marc Riera for helping me figure out what the design of the capitalization module should be. Merry Christmas, Daniel P.S. To anyone not interested in either of these developments: your Christmas gift is that I accidentally made lexical selection quite a bit faster while I was working on these. _______________________________________________ Apertium-stuff mailing list Apertium-stuff@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/apertium-stuff
