"abstract": "This paper presents an empirical comparison of two strategies for Vietnamese Part-of-Speech (POS) tagging from unsegmented text: (i) a pipeline strategy where we consider the output of a word segmenter as the input of a POS tagger, and (ii) a joint strategy where we predict a combined segmentation and POS tag for each syllable. We also make a comparison between state-of-the-art (SOTA) featurebased and neural network-based models. On the benchmark Vietnamese treebank (Nguyen et al., 2009), experimental results show that the pipeline strategy produces better scores of POS tagging from unsegmented text than the joint strategy, and the highest accuracy is obtained by using a feature-based model.",

"text": "POS tagging is one of the most fundamental natural language processing (NLP) tasks. In English where white space is a strong indicator of word boundaries, POS tagging is an important first step towards many other NLP tasks. However, white space when written in Vietnamese is also used to separate syllables that constitute words. So for Vietnamese NLP, word segmentation is referred to as the key first step (Dien et al., 2001) .",

"text": "When applying POS tagging to real-world Vietnamese text where gold word-segmentation is not available, the pipeline strategy is to first segment the text by using a word segmenter, and then feed the word-segmented text-which is the output of the word segmenter-as the input to a POS tagger. For example, given a written text \"thu\u220f thu nh\u2122p c\u00e1 nh\u00e2n\" (individual c\u00e1_nh\u00e2n income thu_nh\u2122p tax thu\u220f ) consisting of 5 syllables, the word seg-menter returns a two-word phrase \"thu\u220f_thu_nh\u2122p c\u00e1_nh\u00e2n.\" 1 Then given the input segmented text \"thu\u220f_thu_nh\u2122p c\u00e1_nh\u00e2n\", the POS tagger returns \"thu\u220f_thu_nh\u2122p/N c\u00e1_nh\u00e2n/N.\"",

"text": "A class of approaches to POS tagging from unsegmented text that has been actively explored in other languages, such as in Chinese and Japanese, is joint word segmentation and POS tagging (Zhang and Clark, 2008) . A possible joint strategy is to assign a combined segmentation and POS tag to each syllable (Kruengkrai et al., 2009) . For example, given the input text \"thu\u220f thu nh\u2122p c\u00e1 nh\u00e2n\", the joint strategy would produce \"thu\u220f/B-N thu/I-N nh\u2122p/I-N c\u00e1/B-N nh\u00e2n/I-N\", where B refers to the beginning of a word and I refers to the inside of a word. Shao et al. (2017) showed that this joint strategy gives SOTA results for Chinese POS tagging by utilizing a BiLSTM-CNN-CRF model (Ma and Hovy, 2016) .",

"text": "In this paper, we present the first empirical study comparing the joint and pipeline strategies for Vietnamese POS tagging from unsegmented text. In addition, we make a comparison between SOTA feature-based and neural networkbased models, which, to the best of our knowledge, has not done in any prior work on Vietnamese. On the benchmark Vietnamese treebank (Nguyen et al., 2009) , we show that the pipeline strategy produces better scores than the joint strategy. We also show that the highest tagging accuracy is obtained by using a traditional feature-based model rather than neural network-based models. Nguyen et al. (2006) , Dinh and Vu (2006) and Tran et al. (2010) considered the Vietnamese word segmentation task as a sequence labeling task, using either a CRF, SVM or MaxEnt model to assign each syllable a segmentation tag such as B or I. In addition, Le et al. (2008) , Pham et al. (2009) and Tran et al. (2012) used the maximum matching method (NanYuan and YanBin, 1991) to generate all possible segmentations for each input sentence; then to select the best segmentation, Le et al. (2008) and Tran et al. (2012) applied ngram language model while Pham et al. (2009) employed POS information from an external POS tagger. Later, Liu and Lin (2014) and Nguyen and Le (2016) proposed approaches based on pointwise prediction, where a binary classifier is trained to identify whether or not there is a word boundary at each point between two syllables. Furthermore, Nguyen et al. (2017b) proposed a rule-based approach which gets the highest results to date in terms of both segmentation accuracy and speed.",

"text": "Regarding Vietnamese POS tagging, Dien and Kiem (2003) projected POS annotations from English to Vietnamese via a bilingual corpus of word alignments. As a standard sequence labeling task, previous research has applied the CRF, SVM or MaxEnt model to assign each word a POS tag (Nghiem et al., 2008; Le-Hong et al., 2010; Tran et al., 2010; Bach et al., 2013) . In addition, Nguyen et al. (2011) proposed a rule-based approach to automatically construct transformation rules for POS tagging in the form of a Ripple Down Rules tree (Compton and Jansen, 1990) , leading to a development of the RDRPOSTagger (Nguyen et al., 2014a) which was the best system for the POS tagging shared task at the 2013 Vietnamese Language and Speech Processing (VLSP) workshop. Nguyen et al. (2016a) and Nguyen et al. (2016b) later showed that SOTA accuracies at 94+% in the Vietnamese POS tagging task are obtained by simply retraining existing English POS taggers on Vietnamese data, showing that the MarMoT tagger (Mueller et al., 2013) and the Stanford POS tagger (Toutanova et al., 2003) obtain higher accuracies than RDRPOSTagger. Nguyen et al. (2016a) also showed that a simple lexicon-based approach assigning each word by its most probable POS tag gains a promising accuracy at 91%. Note that both Nguyen et al. (2016a) and Nguyen et al. (2016b) did not experiment with neural network models. Pham et al. (2017) recently applied the BiLSTM-CNN-CRF (Ma and Hovy, 2016) for Vietnamese POS tagging, however, they did not experiment with SOTA feature-based models.",

The CoNLL 2017 shared task on Universal Dependencies (UD) parsing from raw text (Zeman et al., 2017) provided some results to the pipeline strategy from word segmentation to POS tagging, however, the Vietnamese dataset in the UD project is very small, consisting of 1,400 training sentences. Furthermore, Nguyen et al.

We initialize word and syllable embeddings with 100-dimensional pretrained embeddings, 9 then learn them together with other model parameters during training by using Nadam (Dozat, 2016) . For training, we run for 100 epochs. We perform a grid search of hyperparameters to select the number of BiLSTM layers from {1, 2, 3} and the number of LSTM units in each layer from {50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300}.

In particular, MarMoT obtains 0.5%+ higher accuracy than the three BiLSTMbased models. This is not surprising as the training set of 27k sentences is relatively small compared to the training data available in other languages such as English or Chinese. Table 3 presents F1 scores for word segmentation and POS tagging in a real-world application scenario where the gold word-segmentation is not available. Comparing the results in Table 2 to results for the pipeline strategy, we observe a drop of about 2% for all models when using predicted segmentation instead of gold segmentation. Also, Table 3 clearly shows that the pipeline strategy helps produce better results than the joint strategy. In addition, pre-designed features in both RDR-POSTagger and MarMoT are designed to capture word-level information rather than syllable-level information, so it is also not surprising that for the joint strategy RDRPOSTagger is significantly lower while MarMoT is lower than the BiLSTM-CRF model with additional character-based representations. Tables 2 and 3 suggest that for a practical application to Vietnamese where performance accuracy is preferred, we should consider using the pipeline strategy with a traditional SOTA featurebased tagger such as MarMoT. If speed is preferred such as in big data, RDRPOSTagger would be a superior alternative. With the current state of training data available in Vietnamese, future research should focus on incorporating Vietnamese linguis- Table 3 : F1 scores (in %) for word segmentation (WSeg) and POS tagging (PTag) from unsegmented text. The pipeline strategy uses RDRsegmenter for word segmentation. In preliminary experiments, where we also train the five models above to predict a segmentation tag B or I for each syllable, we then find that RDRsegmenter obtains better word segmentation score than those five models. tic features into the traditional feature-based sequence taggers.",
