Parsing Thai Social Data: A New Challenge for Thai NLP (2003.03069v1)

Abstract: Dependency parsing (DP) is a task that analyzes text for syntactic structure and relationship between words. DP is widely used to improve NLP applications in many languages such as English. Previous works on DP are generally applicable to formally written languages. However, they do not apply to informal languages such as the ones used in social networks. Therefore, DP has to be researched and explored with such social network data. In this paper, we explore and identify a DP model that is suitable for Thai social network data. After that, we will identify the appropriate linguistic unit as an input. The result showed that, the transition based model called, improve Elkared dependency parser outperform the others at UAS of 81.42%.
