Abstract: Several Natural Language Processing Systems (NLPSs) use lexicons, which are files that store information about words, such as word category, gender, number and tense. Computing lexical information instead of storing them will improve the time complexity of NLPSs. This work designs, implements and examines an algorithm for the Arabic morphological analyzer and lexicon generator. The algorithm is based on segmenting the word into a prefix, a stem and a suffix. The algorithm then tries to decide the fillers of the lexicon entries from the information contained in these segments. The algorithm makes several tests on the compatibility between the word components: the prefix, stem and suffix. This algorithm consults three types of lists for assertion purposes: prefixes list, suffixes list and stem lists. The algorithm was tested on three social and political articles of nearly 1300 words. The evaluation shows that we can depend on computational morphological analysis with a percentage of a t least 80 percent. The 20 percent failure percentage is due to language exceptions and the hidden diacritics of Arabic words. (More)
