In 1999, a neural network based POS-tagger was trained and used for POStagging new medieval text; using the grammar of Contemporaneous Portuguese and the parsers constructed, those Medieval Portuguese texts were partially parsed; as a consequence the lexicon of Medieval portuguese was enriched. Methods for extracting multi-word lexical units was used in (Crónica Geral de Espanha). 2 publications were produced.
