Towards a First Automatic Unsupervised Morphological Segmentation for Inuinnaqtun

NAACL (AmericasNLP) 2021  ·  Ngoc Tan Le, Fatiha Sadat ·

Low-resource polysynthetic languages pose many challenges in NLP tasks, such as morphological analysis and Machine Translation, due to available resources and tools, and the morphologically complex languages. This research focuses on the morphological segmentation while adapting an unsupervised approach based on Adaptor Grammars in low-resource setting. Experiments and evaluations on Inuinnaqtun, one of Inuit language family in Northern Canada, considered a language that will be extinct in less than two generations, have shown promising results.
