Assaf Singer author Katharina Kann author 2020-jul text Association for Computational Linguistics Online conference publication We describe the NYU-CUBoulder systems for the SIGMORPHON 2020 Task 0 on typologically diverse morphological inflection and Task 2 on unsupervised morphological paradigm completion. The former consists of generating morphological inflections from a lemma and a set of morphosyntactic features describing the target form. The latter requires generating entire paradigms for a set of given lemmas from raw text alone. We model morphological inflection as a sequence-to-sequence problem, where the input is the sequence of the lemma’s characters with morphological tags, and the output is the sequence of the inflected form’s characters. First, we apply a transformer model to the task. Second, as inflected forms share most characters with the lemma, we further propose a pointer-generator transformer model to allow easy copying of input characters. singer-kann-2020-nyu https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/2020.sigmorphon-1.8 2020-jul 90 98
