These are sample projects for participants in the course to do. As explained here, the expectation is that projects are done in pairs.
TODO: add more sample projects
Analyze one dialectal corpus with an MSA morphological analyzer to determine percentage of words that are dialect-specific.
Find types of syntactic relations in a syntactically annotated corpus of MSA.
Compile morphological forms across dialectal corpora for a specific feature combination (say, the future marker).
• Create a sentiment detector for MSA using existing resources. • Create a word-based dialect identifier.
• Create a multi-tape morphological analyzer for a dialect.
• “Translation” from MSA into or from one of the dialects, or among the dialects.
• Machine translation between one or more dialects and English (or another non-Arabic language). • Dialect identification.
• Multi-dialectal morphological analysis.
• Multi-dialectal parsing.
• Improved parsing for MSA.
• Discovering phonological patterns from written dialectal data
