Towards the Adequate Evaluation of Morphosyntactic Taggers
Szymon Acedański, Adam Przepiórkowski · International Conference on Computational Linguistics · 2010
There exists a well-established and almost unanimously adopted measure of tagger performance, namely, accuracy. Although it is perfectly adequate for small tagsets and typical approaches to disambiguation, we show that it is deficient when applied to rich morphological tagsets and propose various extensions designed to better correlate with the real usefulness of the tagger.
