Abstract

In this paper, we present a gold standard corpus for Albanian part-of-speech tagging and perform evaluation experiments with different statistical taggers. The corpus consists of more than 31,000 tokens and has been manually annotated with a medium-sized tagset that can adequately represent the syntagmatic aspects of the language. We provide mappings from the full tagset to both the original Google Universal Part-of-Speech Tags and the variant used in the Universal Dependencies project. We perform experiments with different taggers on the full tagset as well as on the coarser tagsets and achieve accuracies of up to 95.10%.
