Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This study presents a computational model of morphological generation based on the agglutinative nature of the Kazakh language and vowel–consonant harmony. In this work, we model the Kazakh vowel–consonant harmony system, which governs allomorphic selection of suffixes based on both vowel and consonant properties. Using a rule based approach, the model generates verb and noun forms across various grammatical categories (tense, aspect, case, possession). Experimental results demonstrate the model’s high efficiency and full compliance of the generated word forms with vowel harmony rules. Specifically, thousands of combinations were created for derivative words (DTL), possession (POSS1, POSS2), and case (CASE) categories. This research makes a significant contribution to the development of natural language processing (NLP) morphological analysis and automatic translation systems for the Kazakh language.
