  abstract  = {As multiword expressions (MWEs) exhibit a range of idiosyncrasies, their
	automatic detection warrants the use of many different features. Tsvetkov and
	Wintner (2014) proposed a Bayesian network model that combines linguistically
	motivated features and also models their interactions. In this paper, we extend
	their model with new features and apply it to Croatian, a morphologically
	complex and a relatively free word order language, achieving a satisfactory
	performance of 0.823 F1-score. Furthermore, by comparing against (semi)naive
	Bayes models, we demonstrate that manually modeling feature interactions is
	indeed important.  We make our annotated dataset of Croatian MWEs freely
	available.},
