Status

Heiki: Consider expest.fst also a documentation for grammar work, try to make the code also grammarian-readable.

Jaak: Continued getting rid of multiple generations. It is now somewhat better, but still uncommitted.

Filter is in src/filters/ Need to include it in the src/filters/Makefile.am to make sure the regex is turned into an fst.

Then, to use the filter when building the Oahpa fst, add a target for analyser-oahpa-desc.%:analyser-oahpa-desc.tmp.%, and specify how to use the filter in that target.

Fst build process:

1: build *-raw-* fst, containing everything with tags in a known order
2: build *.tmp.?fst from the *-raw-* fst (language independent build step)
3: build the final fst from the *.tmp.?fst file (language-specific build step, ie the place to add filters only relevant to estonian); if there are no build steps here, the tmp file is just copied to the final target file

Testing

• Coverage of large corpus
• Result of generation
  • Number of double generations
• common lemmatest: Find a lemmalist and test
  • generate the lemma forms of the biggest (or most relevant) est bidix
  • Eventually some other lemmalist
• different lemmatest: make check
  • In this test we measure each fst against its own lemmalist
  • 70
• Other?

ACTION POINTS

• Jaak sets up tests, and Jaak and Heiki (etc) to test

Documentation

Heiki-Jaan and Sjur have discussed the jspwiki generated documentation issue in Helsinki

• http://gtweb.uit.no/jorgal

est -> fin

Tänases Postimehes langevad viimased maskid: idarahaskandaalist alates on viimased kuus aastat jäetud avalikkusele mulje, et Keskerakonna ja Ühtse Venemaa suhted seisavad külmutatuna.

• Tänases *Postimehes lankeavat #uusin *maskid:
• idarahaskandaalist #alkaa ovat #uusin kuusi vuotta *jäetud julkisuudelle *mulje, että #Keskeinen puolueen ja *Ühtse Venäjän maan *suhted seisovat *külmutatuna.

document generation issues Heiki had and Trond corrected: in /doc, make-B; forrest, and get the error message:

X [0]                                     root-morphology.html        BROKEN: Couldn't accept input link ["[ue]"]

this indicates that

    [ ] 

was used in the documentation to be generated (following !! ), and it should not have been.

Status

Not much happened lately. Problem: Identifying A vs N from a 6000 lemma list. Trying to do that via POS info from Estonian. Probably a 2000 residue of those 6000 will remain for manual work.

MT

• typology papers (typology of MT systems, that is)
• ordinary MT system presentation papers
  • sme-fin is a good candidate

Oahpa

• Systems in use papers

FST

• heiki vs. jaak paper (subtracting or not)
• presentation FST papers
• lexc vs twolc: where to put the complexity

Grammar

Contrastive

CG

hmm

ACTION POINT

• Push this to a more concrete level to the next meeting (all)
• Articles as issue next time

Heiki presented Hki slides, and still has had no lunch.
