Tagging Icelandic text: an experiment with integrations and combinations of taggers.
We use integrations and combinations of taggers to improve the tagging accuracy of Icelandic text. The accuracy of the best performing integrated tagger, which consists of our linguistic rule-based tagger for initial disambiguation and a trigram tagger for full disambiguation, is 91.80%.

| Sumario: | We use integrations and combinations of taggers to improve the tagging accuracy of Icelandic text. The accuracy of the best performing integrated tagger, which consists of our linguistic rule-based tagger for initial disambiguation and a trigram tagger for full disambiguation, is 91.80%. Combining five different taggers, using simple voting, results in 93.34% accuracy. By adding two linguistically motivated rules to the combined tagger, we obtain an accuracy of 93.48%. This method reduces the error rate by 20.5%, with respect to the best performing tagger in the combination pool. |
