NLP for The Greek Language: A Longer Survey

Katerina Papantoniou, Yannis Tzitzikas

English language is in the spotlight of the Natural Language Processing (NLP) community with other languages, like Greek, lagging behind in terms of offered methods, tools and resources. Due to the increasing interest in NLP, in this paper we try to condense research efforts for the automatic processing of Greek language covering the last three decades. In particular, we list and briefly discuss related works, resources and tools, categorized according to various processing layers and contexts. We are not restricted to the modern form of Greek language but also cover Ancient Greek and various Greek dialects. This survey can be useful for researchers and students interested in NLP tasks, Information Retrieval and Knowledge Management for the Greek language.
