This paper continues this tradition by contributing minimally-supervised models for normalization of cardinal number expressions (e.g., ninetyseven). times, dates, measures, or currency expressions without knowing how to verbalize that language's numbers as well. first FST factors the integer, expressed as a digit sequence, into sums of products of powers of ten (i.e., The core of the approach is an algorithm for inducing language-specific number grammar rules. training example consisted of a digit sequence, gender and case features, and the Russian cardinal number verbalization of that number.
