The increased data sparsity caused by highly inflected word forms in certain languages causes otherwise state-of-the-art systems to perform worse in standard tasks, e.g., parsing (Ballesteros et al., 2015) and machine translation (Bojar et al., 2016) . To create systems whose performance is not deterred by complex morphology, the development of NLP tools for the generation and analysis of morphological forms is crucial. Indeed, these considerations have motivated a great deal of recent work on the topic (Ahlberg et al., 2015; Dreyer, 2011; Nicolai et al., 2015) .",

One generalization of inflection is morphological reinflection (MRI) (Cotterell et al., 2016a) , where we must produce an inflected form from a triple of target tag, source form and source tag. The inflection task is the special case where the source form is the lemma. As an example, we may again consider generating the English past tense form from the 3rd person singular present: (trg:3rdSgPres, brought, src:Past) \u2192 brings (where trg = \"target tag\" and src = \"source tag\"). As the starting point varies, MRI is more difficult than morphological inflection and exhibits more data sparsity. However, it is also more widely applicable since lexical resources are not always complete and, thus, the lemma is not always available. A more complex German example is given in Table 1 . In this work, we generalize the MRI task to a multi-source setup. Instead of using a single source form-tag pair, we use multiple source form-tag pairs. Our motivation is that (i) it is often beneficial to have access to more than one source form since different source forms can provide complementary information, e.g., different stems; and (ii) in many application scenarios, we will have encountered more than one form of a paradigm at the point when we want to generate a new form.",

All of our examples make additional assumptions, e.g., that we have not seen other similar forms in training either of the same lemma (e.g., poner) or of a similar lemma (e.g., reponer). Hopefully, the examples are illustrative of the main conceptual distinction: several single forms each are sufficient by themselves (ANYFORM), a single, but carefully selected form is sufficient (SINGLEFORM), multiple forms are needed to generate the target (MULTIFORM) and the target form cannot be predicted (irregular) from the source forms (NOFORM). Figure 1 : Four possible input configurations in multi-source morphological reinflection (MRI). In each subfigure, the target form on the right is purple. The source forms are on the left and are green if they can be used to predict the target form (also connected with a dotted line) and red if they cannot. There are four possible configurations: (i) ANYFORM is the case where one can predict the target form from any of the source forms. (ii) SINGLEFORM is the case where only one form can be used to regularly predict the target form. (iii) MULTIFORM is the case where multiple forms are necessary to predict the target form. (iv) NOFORM is the case where the target form cannot be regularly derived from any of the source forms. Multi-source MRI is expected to perform better than single-source MRI for the configurations SINGLEFORM and MULTIFORM, but not for the configurations ANYFORM and NOFORM.",

The second configuration is SINGLEFORM: there is a single form that contains enough information for correct generation, but it has to be carefully selected. Inflected forms of the German verb treffen 'to meet' have different stem vowels (see Table 1 ). In single-source reinflection, producing a target form with one stem vowel (a in trafe in the figure) from a source form with another stem vowel (e.g., e in treffe) is difficult. 3 In contrast, the learning problem for the SINGLE-FORM configuration is much easier in multi-source MRI. The multi-source model does not have to learn the possible vowel changes of this irregular verb; instead, it just needs to pick the correct vowel change from the alternatives offered in the input. This is a relatively easy task since the theme vowel is identical. So we only need to learn one general fact about German morphology (which suffix to add) and will then be able to produce the correct form with high accuracy. This type of regularity is typical of complex morphology: there are groups of forms in a paradigm that are similar and it is highly predictable which of these groups a particular target form for a new word will be a member of. As long as one representative of each group is part of the multi-source input, we can select it to generate the correct form.",

We create our new dataset by uniformly sampling three additional word forms from the paradigm of each source form in the original data.

We deviate from the shared task, which also evaluates under mean reciprocal rank and edit distance. We omit the later two since all these metrics were highly correlated (Cotterell et al., 2016a) . Table 3 shows the results of the MRI experiment on test data. We compare using a single source, the first two sources and all four sources. The first source (in column \"1\") is the original source from the SIGMORPHON shared task. Recall that we used uniform sampling to identify additional forms whereas the sampling procedure of the shared task took into account frequency. We suspect that this is the reason for the worse performance of the new sources compared to the original source; e.g., in bef\u00e4hle that are unlikely to help generate related forms that are more frequent. The main result of the experiment is that multisource MRI performs better than single-source MRI for all languages except for Hungarian and that, clearly, the more sources the better: using four sources is always better than using two sources. This result confirms our hypothesis, illustrated in Figure 1 , that for most languages, different source forms provide complementary information when generating a target form and thus performance of the multi-source model is better than of the singlesource model. Table 3 demonstrates that the two configurations we identified as promising for multisource MRI, SINGLEFORM and MULTIFORM, occur frequently enough to boost the performance for seven of the eight languages, with the largest gains observed for Arabic (7.3%) and Russian (3.5%) and the smallest for Spanish (0.9%) and Georgian (1.3%) (comparing using source form 1 with using source forms 1-4).",

These are all SINGLEFORM cases: the multi-source model will generate the correct form if it succeeds in selecting the most predictive source form. The single-source model is at a disadvantage if this most predictive source form is not part of its input. Table 4 compares different architectural configurations. All experiments use 4 sources. We see that sharing parameters is superior as expected. Using a single encoder on 4 sources performs as well as 4 encoders (and very slightly better on Turkish). Apparently, it has no difficulty learning to understand an unstructured (or rather lightly structured) concatenation of form-tag pairs; on the other hand, this parsing task, i.e., learning to parse the sequence of form-tag pairs, is easy, so this is not a surprising result. Figure 3 shows learning curves for Arabic, German and Turkish. We iteratively halve the training set and train models for each subset. In this analysis, we train all models for 90 epochs, but use the numbers from the main experiment for the full training set. For the single-source model, we use the SIGMORPHON source. The figure shows that the single-source model needs more individual paradigms in the training data to achieve the same performance as the multi-source model. The largest difference between single-source and multisource is > 20% for Arabic when only 1/8 of the training set is used. This suggests that multi-source MRI is an attractive option for low-resource languages since it exploits available data better than single-source. Figure 4 shows for one example, the generation of the German form w\u00f6gen, 3rdPlSubPst, the attention weights of the multi-source model at each time step of the decoder, i.e., for each character as it is being produced by the decoder. For characters that simply need to be copied, the main attention lies on the corresponding characters of the input sources. For example, the character g is produced when attention is on the characters g in w\u00f6gest, w\u00f6ge and wogen. This aspect of the multi-source model is not different from the single-source model, offering no advantage.",

In contrast, wogen does receive some weight; this makes sense as it is a past indicative form and the past subjunctive is systematically related to the past indicative for many German verbs. These observations suggest that the network has learned to correctly predict (at least in this case) which forms provide potentially useful information. For the last two time steps (i.e., characters to be generated), attention is mainly focused on the tags.

Durrett and DeNero (2013) apply a semi-CRF to heuristically extracted rules to generate inflected forms from lemmata using data scraped from Wiktionary. Improved systems for the Wiktionary data were subsequently developed by Hulden et al. (2014) , who used a semi-supervised approach, and Faruqui et al. (2016) , who used a character-level LSTM. All of the above work has focused on the single input case. Two important exceptions, however, have considered the multi-input case. Both Dreyer and Eisner (2009) and Cotterell et al.

Whether such configurations occur and whether these configurations have a strong effect on MRI performance was an open empirical question. Indeed, we found that for one of the languages we investigated, for Hungarian, singlesource MRI works at least as well as multi-source MRI-presumably because its paradigms almost exclusively contain SINGLEFORM configurations. Thus, single-source MRI is probably preferable for Hungarain since single-source is simpler than multi-source.",
