An Annotation Scheme for a Persian Treebank
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present and justify methodological principles and syntactic criteria to design an annotation scheme for a Persian Treebank. The main approaches to the annotation of Treebanks are presented in order to account for taken decisions. After examining these approaches, and taking into account the syntactic characteristics of Persian, the most appropriate one will be selected and its advantages for annotation of the Persian Treebank will be discussed. At the same time we present the way that different types of linguistic knowledge (morphological, syntactic and semantic) are encoded in the structures of the proposed schema. We will show how this scheme can provide a useful interface between syntax and semantic.

An annotation scheme for Persian based on Autonomous Phrases Theory and Universal Dependencies
A treebank is a corpus with linguistic annotations above the level of the parts of speech. During the first half of the present decade, three treebanks have been developed for Persian either originally or subsequently based on dependency grammar: Persian Treebank (PerTreeBank), Persian Syntactic Dependency Treebank, and Uppsala Persian Dependency Treebank (UPDT). The syntactic analysis of a sen...

We present the Uppsala Persian Dependency Treebank (UPDT) with a syntactic annotation scheme based on Stanford Typed Dependencies. The treebank consists of 6,000 sentences and 151,671 tokens with an average sentence length of 25 words. The data is from different genres, including newspaper articles and fiction, as well as technical descriptions and texts about culture and art, taken from the op...

متن کاملDependency Parsers for Persian
We present two dependency parsers for Persian, MaltParser and MSTParser, trained on the Uppsala PErsian Dependency Treebank. The treebank consists of 1,000 sentences today. Its annotation scheme is based on Stanford Typed Dependencies (STD) extended for Persian with regard to object marking and light verb contructions. The parsers and the treebank are developed simultanously in a bootstrapping ...

We present a dependency parser for Persian, called ParsPer, developed using the graph-based parser in the Mate Tools. The parser is trained on the entire Uppsala Persian Dependency Treebank with a specific configuration that was selected by MaltParser as the best performing parsing representation. The treebank’s syntactic annotation scheme is based on Stanford Typed Dependencies with extensions...
