Theworkflow is shown in ... inter-mediate sub -word structure for joint segmentation and tagging. Since the sub-words are large enoughin practice, the decoding for POStagging over sub-words is efficient. Finally, the Chinese language ... effective and effi-cient solution for jointChineseword segmentation andPOS tagging. Our work is motivated by severalcharacteristics of this problem.
