Creating Data in Icelandic for Text Normalization

There is no natural way to acquire normalized data so we try to create good enough data to attempt more advanced methods for text normalization. We manually annotated the first normalized corpus in Icelandic, 40,000 sentences, and developed Regína, a rule-based system for text normalization. Regína gets 90.83% accuracy compared to the manually annotated corpus on non-standard words. Regína showed a significant improvement in accuracy when compared to an older normalization system for Icelandic. The normalized corpus and Regína will be released as open source.
