TajikNLP: An Open-Source Toolkit for Comprehensive Text Processing of Tajik (Cyrillic Script)
The Tajik language, written in Cyrillic script, remains severely under-resourced in terms of publicly available natural language processing (NLP) toolkits, hindering both linguistic research and applied development. This paper introduces TajikNLP, an open-source Python library that provides the first comprehensive pipeline for processing authentic Tajik text while preserving the original Cyrillic orthography. The library implements a modular architecture centered around a unified Doc object, enabling sequential application of components for cleaning, normalization, tokenization (including subword BPE), morphemic segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, stemming, lemmatization, and sentence s...
