D-Nikud: Enhancing Hebrew Diacritization with LSTM and Pretrained Models

Computation and Language 2024-02-02 v1

Abstract

D-Nikud, a novel approach to Hebrew diacritization that integrates the strengths of LSTM networks and BERT-based (transformer) pre-trained model. Inspired by the methodologies employed in Nakdimon, we integrate it with the TavBERT pre-trained model, our system incorporates advanced architectural choices and diverse training data. Our experiments showcase state-of-the-art results on several benchmark datasets, with a particular emphasis on modern texts and more specified diacritization like gender.
