Using MONA for Querying Linguistic Treebanks

Identifying complex phenomena in a corpus via a treebank lens

While syntactically annotated corpora known as treebanks have been available for many years, along with a variety of customized tools for querying these annotations, the mapping from actual annotations to relevant syntactic or semantic phenomena has been obscured by the coarse-grained labelling of nodes in the parse trees which make up the treebanks. This lack of linguistic detail has hampered ...

Fangorn: A System for Querying very large Treebanks

The efficiency and robustness of statistical parsers has made it possible to create very large treebanks. These serve as the starting point for further work including enrichment, extraction, and curation: semantic annotations are added, syntactic features are mined, erroneous analyses are corrected. In many such cases manual processing is required, and this must operate efficiently on the large...

Example-Based Treebank Querying with GrETEL - now also for Spoken Dutch

Although several syntactically annotated corpora (or treebanks) exist for Dutch, they are seldomly used for descriptive linguistic research because there are no easy-to-use exploitation tools available. This demonstration paper describes GrETEL, a linguistic search engine (http:// nederbooms.ccl.kuleuven.be/eng/gretel) that enables non-technical users to consult treebanks in a user-friendly way...

Towards a Simple and Full-Featured Treebank Query Language

Netgraph query language is a query system for linguistically annotated treebanks that aims to be sufficiently powerful for linguistic needs and yet simple enough for not requiring any programming or mathematical skill from its users. We provide an introduction to the system along with a set of examples how to search for some frequent linguistic phenomena. We also offer a comparison to the query...
