Malayalam Verb Analyzer: An Alternate Computational Model

Abrar K.J | Sreenathan M

Abstract: The Morphological Analyzer of any language is under increasing scrutiny based on its functional accuracy. In the context of functional inadequacies of Malayalam Morphological analyzers identified in currency, this study proposes a new model incorporating both linguistic and computational aspects for computational verb analysis. This maiden endeavor is a departure from the morphological approaches like suffix striping, paradigm appraoch, Directed Acyclic word diagram; Corpus based approach Finite state Transducer, Two level morphology and Finite State Automata. An alternate model for verb analysis is presented with the expectation of resolving the existing predicaments in computational verb analysis. Interlinking linguistic and computational aspects in establishing a verb analyzer model would be a welcome step to follow in agglutinative language based morphological models.
