Year: 2016

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Cross-linguistically consistent annotation is necessary for sound comparative evaluation and cross-lingual learning experiments.It is also useful for multilingual system development and comparative linguistic studies.Universal Dependencies is an open community effort to create cross-linguistically consistent treebank annotation for many languages within a dependency-based lexicalist framework.In this paper, we describe v1 of the universal guidelines, the underlying design principles, and the currently available treebanks for 33 languages.
