Abstract
Pashto is one of the richest languages of the world and consists of a large number of personal pronouns that are categorized into strong, weak and directional pronouns. In this paper a computational approach for resolving these pronouns is proposed and an algorithm is developed. This algorithm is the combination of two sub-algorithms that resolves these pronouns. The algorithm has been tested on real world text taken from novels and stories which showed 78% accuracy.
