| 11 | 12 | The main objectives of the HaBiT project are to gather large-scale text data (corpora) from the Web for under-resourced languages, involving Norwegian, partly Czech and the major languages of Ethiopia — Amharic, Afaan Oromo, Tigrinya, Somali — and to build shallow processing applications. The gathered data will be processed to make it usable in many language applications, such as information extraction or machine translation. Furthermore, in the process of collecting corpora data, existing tools for building web text resources will be further developed and improved since the Ethiopian languages are quite different from most European languages. Applications for the given languages will be built to allow for the separation and disambiguation of multiple senses of words. |
