Deep Learning for Part of Speech (PoS) Tagging: Konkani

This is the first time that an experiment using deep learning has been attempted with a Konkani language data set. For this study, over 100,000 PoS tagged Konkani sentences were used. The f-scores for deep learning are 90.73% for training data and 71.43% for test data. These results are better than the ones previously reported for Konkani. We have provided a list of references of PoS tagging for Indian languages specifically using deep learning to place our research in perspective.
