Development of Natural Language Processing Tools for Cook Islands M\=aori
This paper presents three ongoing projects for NLP in Cook Islands Maori: Untrained Forced Alignment (approx. 9{\%} error when detecting the center of words), speech-to-text (37{\%} WER in the best trained models) and POS tagging (92{\%} accuracy for the best performing model). Included as part of these projects are new resources filling in a gap in Australasian languages, including gold standard POS-tagged written corpora, transcribed speech corpora, time-aligned corpora down to the level of phonemes. These are part of efforts to accelerate the documentation of Cook Islands Maori and to increase its vitality amongst its users.
