[Corpora-List] State-of-the-art POS tagging results

[Khalil Simaan]

Hi,
Hebrew and Arabic may count under ``morphologically complex languages".

For Hebrew have a look at:

Roy Bar-Haim, Khalil Sima'an and Yoad Winter.    Part-of-Speech Tagging 
of Modern Hebrew Text.  In  Journal of Natural Language Engineering 
(J-NLE) 
<http://www.cambridge.org/journals/journal_catalogue.asp?mnemonic=nle>, 
14(2):223-251, 2008. 

the work extended for Arabic:

Saib Mansour, Khalil Sima'an and Yoad Winter. Smoothing a Lexicon-based 
POS tagger for Arabic and Hebrew.  In proceedings of  ACL 2007 Workshop 
on Computational Approaches to Semitic Languages: Common Issues and 
Resources. Prague, Czech Republic, 2007.
