## Ideas Mova took (1)

From the ideas ledger: an idea tried, kept or queued, or measured with no gain, and what it gave.

- **measured, no gain** — Keep the lattice: let tools/hbo output every segmentation candidate of a token, with its tag and lemma per arc, and pass the whole lattice to gparse, so that the parser can choose the segmentation that fits the tree. *([What's Wrong with Hebrew NLP? And How to Make it Right](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/aclbulk-2019-tsarfaty-what-s-wrong-hebrew-nlp/) · lattice in tools/hbo (hbo lattice / gparse GP_SCORE / hbo choose): the tree score does not pick the gold split (gold candidate +0.13 mean tree gain vs -0.41…)*

## Papers

1. **[EvaCun 2025 Shared Task: Lemmatization and Token Prediction in Akkadian and Sumerian using LLMs](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/aclbulk-2025-gordin-evacun-2025-shared-task-lemmatization/)** *(2025)* The shared task asks for two things on cuneiform text: lemmatization (the base form of each word) and token prediction (filling a masked word from its context).
2. **[What's Wrong with Hebrew NLP? And How to Make it Right](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/aclbulk-2019-tsarfaty-what-s-wrong-hebrew-nlp/)** *(2019)* The paper presents ONLP (YAP), an open system for Modern Hebrew that does segmentation, POS tagging, lemmas, features and labelled dependencies in one package.
