FinnPos is a morphological tagging and lemmatization toolkit for morphologically rich languages such as Finnish. It is based on the CRF framework and features
- State-of-the-art tagging accuracy.
- Fast estimation and application.
- Support for large label sets exceeding 1000 label types.
- An option to use taggers for morphological disambiguation.
- Data driven lemmatization for OOV words.
- Feature extraction using sub-labels of structured morphological labels (e.g. "Noun+Plural+Nominative").
- Customizable feature extraction.
FinnPos also provides an accurate morphological tagger for Finnish: FinnTreeBank tagger is trained on a high quality manually annotated Finnish treebank FinnTreeBank 1. FinnTreeBank tagger boosts its tagging accuracy using the open-source Finnish morphological analyzer OMorFi.
