NLP for Morphologically-Rich Languages

Helsinki has a long tradition in working with computational models for morphological analysis and generation of natural languages. Helsinki is the birthplace of two-level morphology (TWOL), a general computational model for word form recognition and production. The language technology group now provides efficient tools for morphological analysis based on finite-state technology and statistical NLP. Additional tools and linguistic resources that emphasise NLP for highly inflecting languages (Finnish in particular) are collected under the umbrella of FIN-CLARIN.
