Title
A Compression Method for Natural Language Automata
Abstract
This paper deals with Finite State Automata used in Natural Language Processing to represent very large dictionaries. We present a method for an important operation applied to these automata, the compression with quick access. Our proposal is to factorize subautomata other than those representing common prefixes or suffixes. Our algorithm uses a DAWG of subautomata to iteratively choose the best substructure to factorize. The linear time accepting complexity is kept in the resulting compact automaton. Experiments performed on ten automata are reported.
