The Old Icelandic Morphological Analyzer
 
  Project Overview

The current project seeks to expand earlier work on Old Icelandic morphology and Old Icelandic texts. We intend to develop an accurate morphological analyzer that includes the entire Old Icelandic lexical set (including the poetic lexicon), and is integrated with both normalized texts and diplomatic transcriptions coupled to images of the manuscripts from which they were transcribed. Automated normalization routines will increase the scope of texts available, while assisted disambiguation routines will increase the power of word study tools. The goal is to provide wide access to Old Icelandic materials and sophisticated research tools, all within one integrated environment.
