Building a large Persian Verb Collection: A generative approach

摘要

Persian is an Iranian language within the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European languages which is one of the major languages in the Heart Land (Middle East). Nevertheless, there are proportionately few studies on retrieval and analyses of Persian documents. In this case, suitable resources for Persian are becoming a vital necessity for the progress of language engineering researches. In this paper we tried to make a Persian Verb Collection -as a linguistic resource- which is needed in some NLP researches like verb and sentence detection, POS tagging, Lexicography and etc. We used a generative approach for building this collection from Persian Stems by Verbal Structures.
