Machine Learning Approach to Oriya Language Shallow Parsing

This article introduces the problem of partial or shallow parsing (assigning partial syntactic structure to sentences) and explains why it is an important natural language processing (NLP) task. The complexity of the task makes Machine Learning an attractive option in comparison to the handcrafting of rules. On the other hand, because of the same task complexity, shallow parsing makes an excellent benchmark problem for evaluating machine learning algorithms. The specialty of this paper discuses how machine learning approach is applicable to oriya language shallow parsing.
