  abstract  = {We address the challenge of cross-lingual POS tagger evaluation in absence of
	manually annotated test data. We put forth and evaluate two dictionary-based
	metrics. On the tasks of accuracy prediction and system ranking, we reveal that
	these metrics are reliable enough to approximate test set-based evaluation, and
	at the same time lean enough to support assessment for truly low-resource
	languages.},
