TL;DR
A technique for reducing a tagset used for n-gram part-of-speech disambiguation is introduced and evaluated in an experiment and ensures that all information that is provided by the original tagset can be restored from the reduced one.

A program that tags each word in an input sentence with the most likely part of speech has been written and performance is encouraging; a 400-word sample is presented and is judged to be 99.5% correct.

A new technique for inducing the structure of Hidden Markov Models from data which is based on the general `model merging' strategy, and how the algorithm was incorporated in an operational speech understanding system, where it was combined with neural network acoustic likelihood estimators to improve performance over single-pronunciation word models.
