Daba is a rule-based morphological analysis package. It's idea of morphological processing is somewhat similar to the Porter stemmer algorithm. Although the result of the analysis is not a plain stem, but an annotated Gloss object that hold enough information for morpheme-by-morpheme glossing known in linguistic typology and anthropological linguistics as interlinear Glossed Text format.
Daba provides a set of cross-platform GUI and CLI tools required to provide full cycle of corpus annotation followed by manual disambiguation:
- morphological parser GUI and CLI version
- Metadata editor
- Disambiguation interface
- and some auxiliary scripts, see ad hoc dir
