Abstract

In the paper, we present a software tool Affisix for automatic recognition of prefixes. On the basis of an extensive list of words in a language, it determines the segments – candidates for prefixes. There are two methods implemented for the recognition – the entropy method and the squares method. We briefly describe the methods, propose their improvements and present the results of experiments with Czech.

This paper is a result of the projects supported by the grants of the Czech Academy of Sciences 1ET101120503 and 1ET101120413.
