Unknown Word Guessing and Part-of-Speech Tagging Using Support Vector Machines.
Tetsuji Nakagawa, Taku Kudo, Yūji Matsumoto · 2001
The accuracy of part-of-speech (POS) tagging for unknown words is substantially lower than that for known words. Considering the high accuracy rate of up-to-date statistical POS taggers, unknown words account for a non-negligible portion of the errors. This paper describes POS prediction for unknown words using Support Vector Machines.
