Morpho Challenge 2010 - Semi-supervised and Unsupervised Analysis

Part of the EU Network of Excellence PASCAL2 Challenge Program.
Participation is open to all.

The objective of the Challenge is to design a statistical machine
learning algorithm that discovers which morphemes (smallest individually
meaningful units of language) words consist of. Ideally, these are basic
vocabulary units suitable for different tasks, such as text
understanding, machine translation, information retrieval, and
statistical language modeling.
