Tutorial: varphi-Transductions in OpenFst via the Gallic Semiring
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
OpenFst, a popular finite-state transducer library, supports varphi-transitions but, due to an implementation constraint, they cannot be used with transducers in a straightforward way. In this short tutorial, we describe how one can use other functionality provided by OpenFst (namely, the Gallic semiring) to correctly implement varphi-transductions and demonstrate it by implementing the MaxMatch (WordPiece) tokenization algorithm (Devlin et al., 2019; Song et al., 2021). Accompanying self-contained code examples are provided. https://www.openfst.org/twiki/pub/Contrib/FstContrib/phitransductiontutorialcode.tgz
