Abstract :
A rule based Local Word Grouper (LWG) or Chunker has been attempted and applied to Bangla. The Chunker has been evaluated with PARSEVAL method. The paper describes implementation of the Chunker as well as the evaluation method in detail. The evaluation shows a precision value of 95.05%, recall value of 94.33% and f-score value of 94.62 which are up to the standard. The results also show a substantial improvement when comparing with some of the recently published works.
