    A FST description of noun and verb morphology of Azarbaijani Turkish
    (Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL), 2021) Ehsani, Razieh; Özenç, Berke; Solak, Ercan; Drewes F.
    We give a FST description of nominal and finite verb morphology of Azarbaijani Turkish. We use a hybrid approach where nominal inflection is expressed as a slot-based paradigm and major parts of verb inflection are expressed as optional paths on the FST. We collapse adjective and noun categories in a single nominal category as they behave similarly as far as their paradigms are concerned. Thus, we defer a more precise identification of POS to further down the NLP pipeline.

    Automatic propbank generation for Turkish
    (Incoma Ltd, 2019-09) Ak, Koray; Yıldız, Olcay Taner
    Semantic role labeling (SRL) is an important task for understanding natural languages, where the objective is to analyse propositions expressed by the verb and to identify each word that bears a semantic role. It provides an extensive dataset to enhance NLP applications such as information retrieval, machine translation, information extraction, and question answering. However, creating SRL models are difficult. Even in some languages, it is infeasible to create SRL models that have predicate-argument structure due to lack of linguistic resources. In this paper, we present our method to create an automatic Turkish PropBank by exploiting parallel data from the translated sentences of English PropBank. Experiments show that our method gives promising results. © 2019 Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL).

    An open, extendible, and fast Turkish morphological analyzer
    (Incoma Ltd, 2019-09) Yıldız, Olcay Taner; Avar, Begüm; Ercan, Gökhan
    In this paper, we present a two-level morphological analyzer for Turkish which consists of five main components: finite state transducer, rule engine for suffixation, lexicon, trie data structure, and LRU cache. We use Java language to implement finite state machine logic and rule engine, Xml language to describe the finite state transducer rules of the Turkish language, which makes the morphological analyzer both easily extendible and easily applicable to other languages. Empowered with a comprehensive lexicon of 54,000 bare-forms including 19,000 proper nouns, our morphological analyzer is amongst the most reliable analyzers produced so far. The analyzer is compared with Turkish morphological analyzers in the literature. By using LRU cache and a trie data structure, the system can analyze 100,000 words per second, which enables users to analyze huge corpora in a few hours.

    Narrative conflicts: a tri-modal computational analysis of antagonism in Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar
    (CEUR-WS, 2025-09-26) Yavuz, Mehmet Can; Cascone, Lucia; Özkan, Aylin; Ertaş, İrem
    This study introduces a novel computational framework to analyze multi-modal antagonisms—semantic, emotional, and relational—in dramatic literature, specifically focusing on Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. Employing natural language processing (NLP) techniques, text embeddings, emotion classifiers, and network-based character analyses, we systematically extract and quantify antagonistic relationships within the play. Semantic antagonisms are identified through hierarchical clustering and dimensionality reduction of character embeddings, revealing rhetorical groupings aligned closely with narrative functions. Emotional antagonisms, captured via emotion distribution profiles and variance analysis, illuminate characters’ affective dynamics and their alignment with dramatic roles. Relational antagonisms are explored through co-occurrence networks, highlighting unexpected centrality of minor characters as critical mediators of conflict. Integrating these modalities with Hegelian dialectics and Nietzschean interpretations, our tri-modal analysis provides fresh insights into ideological tensions, character motivations, and narrative structure. This interdisciplinary approach demonstrates the effectiveness of AI-driven tools in enriching literary criticism opening new avenues for exploring conflict dynamics in canonical texts.
