Authors
The first version of Morpheus was developed by Gregory Crane.
Description
Morpheus was created as an augmentation of the Morph parsing algorithm developed by David Packard. Morpheus is a morphological parsing and lemmatising tool produced by the Perseus Project. Basically Morpheus takes as input a token in Latin or Ancient Greek (in Beta Code) and returns:
- The lemma (or multiple possible lemmata) from which this token derives;
- A full morphological breakdown of the form (part of speech, case, number, gender, person, mood, etc.)
Morpheus is fully integrated into the Perseus website and language study tools. For example, you can enter inflected words via the forms at:
Other implementations of Morpheus are documented in: http://sites.tufts.edu/perseusupdates/2012/11/01/morphology-service-beta/ https://wikihub.berkeley.edu/display/pbamboo/Morphological+Analysis+Service+Contract+Description+-+v1.1.1
Possibly also of interest: https://github.com/perseids-project/perseids_docs/wiki/Morphology-Service-Setup https://github.com/alpheios-project/arethusa/wiki/Adding-a-new-Morphology-Service-to-Arethusa
An automatic attempt to provide the right morphological analysis and lemma for each token of the EPIDOC-compliant texts of the Open Greek and Latin Project [1] and PerseusDL [2] is documented in [3].
The Alpheios fork of Morpheus, which includes built binaries and Greek stemlibs, and puts a wrapper on the morpheus output that adheres to the Alpheios Lexicon Schema can be found in the Alpheios GitHub repository.
The Text Alignment Network function library has a built-in function tan:search-morpheus() that allows Greek and Latin results to be fetched natively within XSLT code.
References to other implementations and uses of Morpheus would be appreciated.
