Decision Strategies for Incremental POS Tagging
Niels Beuck, Arne Köhn, Wolfgang Menzel · DSpace repository (University of Tartu) · 2011
In an incremental NLP pipeline every module needs to work incrementally.However, an incremental processing mode can lead to a degradation of accuracy due to the missing context to the right.We discuss three properties of incremental output that can be traded for accuracy, namely timeliness, monotonicity and decisiveness.The consequences of these trade-offs are evaluated systematically for the task of part-of-speech tagging.
