Abstract

Morphological segmentation is useful for processing Mongolian. In this paper, we manually build a morphological segmentation data set for Mongolian. We then present a character-based encoder-decoder model with attention mechanism to perform the morphological segmentation task. We further investigate the influence of analogy features extracted from scratch and improve the performance of our model using multi languages setting. Experimental results show that our encoder-decoder model with attention mechanism provides a strong baseline for Mongolian morphological segmentation. The analogy features provide useful information to the model and improve the performance of the system. The use of multi languages data set shows the capability of our model to acquire knowledge through different languages and delivers the best result.
