Cascaded Markov Models
Author: Thorsten Brants
Editor:
This paper presents a new approach to partial parsing of context-free structures. The approach is based on Markov
Models. Each layer of the resulting structure is represented by its own Markov Model, and output of a lower layer
is passed as input to the next higher layer. An empirical evaluation of the method yields very good results for
NP/PP chunking of German newspaper texts.
