The design of these rules is inspired in the Constraint Grammars formalism. In the present work, we review this formalism in order to propose a more intuitive syntax and semantics for rules, and we develop a strategy to compile the rules under the form of Finite State Transducers, thus guaranteeing an efficient execution framework.application/postscripttext/plainengCompilation of constraint-based contextual rules for part-of-speech tagging into finite state transducersjournal articleopen access
