Extending Tēzaurs.lv Online Dictionary into a Morphological Lexicon.

This paper describes the integration of traditional dictionary data from the Tezaurs.lv online dictionary with a morphological analysis system, resulting in a structured morphological lexicon that improves coverage of morphological tagging and also enhances the dictionary with automatically generated inflection tables. The main challenge in this integration was the extraction of structured data from textual dictionary information, and classification of dictionary entries into morphological paradigms.
