Summary

My recent code snippets and projects, including a simple and strict algorithm for converting roman numbers to decimal numbers als well as a Part of Speech Tagger based in the Viterbi algorithm.

Snippets

I implemented a simple and strict conversion of roman numbers to latin decimal numbers as an example for a first year student. Generally, I prefered readability and clearness over using tricky and smart, but obscure code.

The file: roman2dec.cpp

Project: Part of Speech Tagger

During my studies at Oxford, we developed a small implementation of the Viterbi Algorithm for Part of Speech Tagging. As I enjoyed this practical work tremendously, I decided to update my code to work as a web application with an easy to use interface, extended the database and implemented some simple improvements. The result should now give some impressive answers and I am constantly updating the inner workings. There should be, unarguably, a lot of possible more improvements:

The Part of Speech Tagger as Web Application

(Unfortunately, I did not yet talk to my hoster about a stable web application server solution. Might be possible, that the links does not work after a reboot of the server, but I will always restart the application server as soon as possible.)
