Abstract

MorphCon is a new software tool for automatic conversion of Czech morphological tagsets. This software enables converting of two basic tagsets of Czech: Prague positional system and Brno's attributive system.

There are three basic Input/Output (I/O) formats of data (SimpleTag-Conversion, KWIC/Tag-Format, WPL-Format). Tagsets are implemented into the MorphCon as "drivers" with "encode" and "decode" function as well as an "universal library" called DZ-Interset plays key role for the process of conversion as a transcoder.

The MorphCon software is thus built as an universal converter: modularity, the Interset as a transcoder, possibility of adding of another tagsets (not only Czech ones) and I/O formats.
