Dealing with compounds is a challenge for NLP systems since compounds are not often included in the dictionaries and other lexical sources. We present a compound splitting method combining language independent features (similarity measure, corpus data) and language specific component transformation rules. Due to the usage of language independent features, the method can be applied to different languages. We report on our experiments in splitting of German and Russian compound words, giving positive results compared to matching of compound parts in a lexicon. To the best of our knowledge. elaborated compound splitting is a rare component of NLP systems for Russian, yet our experiments show that it could be beneficial to use a specialized vocabulary.
