Converting Italian Treebanks: Towards an Italian Stanford Dependency Treebank
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper addresses the challenge of converting MIDT, an existing dependency– based Italian treebank resulting from the harmonization and merging of smaller resources, into the Stanford Dependencies annotation formalism, with the final aim of constructing a standard–compliant resource for the Italian language. Achieved results include a methodology for converting treebank annotations belonging to the same dependency–based family, the Italian Stanford Dependency Treebank (ISDT), and an Italian localization of the Stanford Dependency scheme.

Comparing State-of-the-art Dependency Parsers on the Italian Stanford Dependency Treebank
English. In the last decade, many accurate dependency parsers have been made publicly available. It can be difficult for non-experts to select a good off-the-shelf parser among those available. This is even more true when working on languages different from English, because parsers have been tested mainly on English treebanks. Our analysis is focused on Italian and relies on the Italian Stanfor...
متن کاملLess is More? Towards a Reduced Inventory of Categories for Training a Parser for the Italian Stanford Dependencies
Stanford Dependencies (SD) represent nowadays a de facto standard as far as dependency annotation is concerned. The goal of this paper is to explore pros and cons of different strategies for generating SD annotated Italian texts to enrich the existing Italian Stanford Dependency Treebank (ISDT). This is done by comparing the performance of a statistical parser (DeSR) trained on a simpler resour...
متن کاملComparing linguistic information in treebank annotations
The paper investigates the issue of portability of methods and results over treebanks in different languages and annotation formats. In particular, it addresses the problem of converting an Italian treebank, the Turin University Treebank (TUT), developed in dependency format, into the Penn Treebank format, in order to possibly exploit the tools and methods already developed and compare the adeq...
متن کاملDependency And Relational Structure In Treebank Annotation
Among the variety of proposals currently making the dependency perspective on grammar more concrete, there are several treebanks whose annotation exploits some form of Relational Structure that we can consider a generalization of the fundamental idea of dependency at various degrees and with reference to different types of linguistic knowledge. The paper describes the Relational Structure as th...
