Guided by the intuition that the correct analysis should be “most similar” to the context, we propose dense representations for morphological analyses and surface context and a simple yet effective way of combining the two to perform disambiguation. Our approach improves on the language-dependent state of the art for two agglutinative languages (Turkish and Kazakh) and can be potentially applied to other morphologically complex languages. %R 10.18653/v1/P17-2105 %U https://aclanthology.org/P17-2105 %U https://doi.org/10.18653/v1/P17-2105 %P 666-671
