Building an old Occitan corpus via cross-Language transfer
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the implementation of a resource-light approach, cross-language transfer, to build and annotate a historical corpus for Old Occitan. Our approach transfers morpho-syntactic and syntactic annotation from resource-rich source languages, Old French and Catalan, to a genetically related target language, Old Occitan. The present corpus consists of three sub-corpora in XML format: 1) raw text; 2) part-of-speech tagged text; and 3) syntactically annotated text.

It is well known that parallel corpora are valuable linguistic resources. One of the benefits of such corpora is that they allow for the building an annotated corpus for resource-poor languages via crosslanguage transfer.

متن کاملCross-language transfer of semantic annotation via targeted crowdsourcing: task design and evaluation
The development of a natural language speech application requires the process of semantic annotation. Moreover multilingual porting of speech applications increases the cost and complexity of the annotation task. In this paper we address the problem of transferring the semantic annotation of the source language corpus to a low-resource target language via crowdsourcing. The current crowdsourcin...
