Original PADT 1.0 as distributed by the LDC
CoNLL 2006
CoNLL 2007

The CoNLL 2007 version reportedly improves over CoNLL 2006 in quality of morphological annotation. Both CoNLL versions miss important parts of the original PADT annotation (see below).

The original PADT 1.0 is distributed by the LDC under the catalogue number LDC2004T23. It is free for LDC members 2004, price for non-members is unknown (contact LDC). The license in short:

cite one publication in publications; also include: “The PADT 1.0 has been developed by the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics and the Center for Computational Linguistics (see http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/).”

The CoNLL 2006 and 2007 versions are obtainable upon request under similar license terms. Their publication in the LDC together with the other CoNLL treebanks is being prepared.

PADT was created by members of the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics (Ústav formální a aplikované lingvistiky, ÚFAL), Faculty of Mathematics and Physics (Matematicko-fyzikální fakulta), Charles University in Prague (Univerzita Karlova v Praze), Malostranské náměstí 25, Praha, CZ-11800, Czechia. The CoNLL conversion of the treebank was prepared by Otakar Smrž, one of the key authors of the original PADT.

Newswire text from press agencies (Agence France Presse, Ummah, Al Hayat, An Nahar, Xinhua 2001-2003).

According to their website, the original PADT 1.0 contains 113,500 tokens annotated analytically. The CoNLL 2006 version contains 59752 tokens in 1606 sentences, yielding 37.21 tokens per sentence on average (CoNLL 2006 data split: 54379 tokens / 1460 sentences training, 5373 tokens / 146 sentences test). The CoNLL 2007 version contains 116,793 tokens in 3043 sentences, yielding 38.38 tokens per sentence on average (CoNLL 2007 data split: 111,669 tokens / 2912 sentences training, 5124 tokens / 131 sentences test).

As noted in (Nivre et al., 2007), “the parsing units in this treebank are in many cases larger than conventional sentences, which partly explains the high average number of tokens per sentence.”

The original PADT 1.0 is distributed in the FS format. The CoNLL versions are distributed in the CoNLL-X format. The original PADT contains more information than the CoNLL version. There is morphological annotation (tags and lemmas) both manual and by a tagger (while only manual is in CoNLL data), glosses etc. However, the most important piece of information that got lost during the conversion to CoNLL is the FS attribute called parallel. It distinguishes conjuncts from shared modifiers of coordination and thus the syntactic structure is incomplete without it.

Word forms and lemmas are vocalized, i.e. they contain diacritics for short vowels as well as consonant gemination and a few other things. The CoNLL 2006 version includes Buckwalter transliteration of the Arabic script (in the same column as Arabic, attached to the Arabic form/lemma with an underscore character).

Note that tokenization of Arabic typically includes splitting original words (inserting spaces between letters), not just separating punctuation from words. Example: وبالفالوجة = wabiālfālūjah = wa/CONJ + bi/PREP + AlfAlwjp/NOUN_PROP = and in al-Falujah. In PADT, conjunctions and prepositions are separate tokens and nodes.

The original PADT 1.0 uses 10-character positional morphological tags whose documentation is hard to find. The CoNLL 2006 version converts the tags to the three CoNLL columns, CPOS, POS and FEAT, most of the information being encoded as pipe-separated attribute-value assignments in FEAT. There should be a 1-1 mapping between the PADT positional tags and the CoNLL 2006 annotation. The CoNLL 2007 version uses a tag conversion different from CoNLL 2006. Both CoNLL distributions contain a README file with a brief description of the parts of speech and features. Use DZ Interset to inspect the two CoNLL tagsets. Also look at the Elixir FM online interface for a later development of the morphological analyzer created along with PADT.

The guidelines for syntactic annotation are documented in the PADT annotation manual (only peculiarities of Arabic are documented, otherwise it is referenced to the annotation manual for the Czech treebank). The list and brief description of syntactic tags (dependency relation labels) can be found in (Smrž, Šnaidauf and Zemánek, 2002).

Nonprojectivities in PADT are rare. Only 431 of the 116,793 tokens in the CoNLL 2007 version are attached nonprojectively (0.37%).

The results of the CoNLL 2006 shared task are available online. They have been published in (Buchholz and Marsi, 2006). The evaluation procedure was non-standard because it excluded punctuation tokens. These are the best results for Arabic:

Parser (Authors)	LAS	UAS
MST (McDonald et al.)	66.91	79.34
Basis (O'Neil)	66.71	78.54
Malt (Nivre et al.)	66.71	77.52
Edinburgh (Riedel et al.)	66.65	78.62

The results of the CoNLL 2007 shared task are available online. They have been published in (Nivre et al., 2007). The evaluation procedure was changed to include punctuation tokens. These are the best results for Arabic:

Parser (Authors)	LAS	UAS

The two Malt parser results of 2007 (single malt and blended) are described in (Hall et al., 2007) and the details about the parser configuration are described here.

Original BTB in native format
CoNLL 2006 (BulTreeBank-DP)

The original BTB is based on HPSG (head-driven phrase-structure grammar). The CoNLL version contains only the dependency information encoded in HPSG BulTreeBank.

Only the CoNLL version seems to be distributed but you may ask the creators about the HPSG version. For the dependency version, print the license, sign, scan, send to Kiril Simov (kivs (at) bultreebank (dot) org) and wait for the data. The license in short:

Unknown (“A set of Bulgarian sentences marked-up with detailed syntactic information. These sentences are mainly extracted from authentic Bulgarian texts. They are chosen with regards two criteria. First, they cover the variety of syntactic structures of Bulgarian. Second, they show the statistical distribution of these phenomena in real texts.”) At least part of it is probably news (Novinar, Sega, Standart).

The CoNLL 2006 version contains 196,151 tokens in 13221 sentences, yielding 14.84 tokens per sentence on average (CoNLL 2006 data split: 190,217 tokens / 12823 sentences training, 5934 tokens / 398 sentences test).

The original morphosyntactic tags have been converted to fit into the three columns (CPOS, POS and FEAT) columns of the CoNLL format. There should be a 1-1 mapping between the BTB positional tags and the CoNLL 2006 annotation. Use DZ Interset to inspect the two CoNLL tagsets.

The morphological analysis does not include lemmas. The morphosyntactic tags have been assigned (probably) manually.

The guidelines for syntactic annotation are documented in the other technical report. The CoNLL distribution contains the BulTreeBankReadMe.html file with a brief description of the syntactic tags (dependency relation labels).

HyDT-Bangla shows dependencies between chunks, not words. The node/tree ratio is thus much lower than in other treebanks. The ICON 2009 version came with a data split into three parts: training, development and test:

Part	Sentences	Chunks	Ratio
Training	980	6449	6.58
Development	150	811	5.41
Test	150	961	6.41
TOTAL	1280	8221	6.42

The ICON 2010 version came with a data split into three parts: training, development and test:

Part	Sentences	Chunks	Ratio	Words	Ratio
Training	979	6440	6.58	10305	10.52
Development	150	812	5.41	1196	7.97
Test	150	961	6.41	1350	9.00
TOTAL	1279	8213	6.42	12851	10.04

I have counted the sentences and chunks. The number of words comes from (Husain et al., 2010). Note that the paper gives the number of training sentences as 980 (instead of 979), which is a mistake. The last training sentence has the id 980 but there is no sentence with id 418.

Apparently the training-development-test data split was more or less identical in both years, except for the minor discrepancies (number of training sentences and development chunks).

The text uses the WX encoding of Indian letters. If we know what the original script is (Bengali in this case) we can map the WX encoding to the original characters in UTF-8. WX uses English letters so if there was embedded English (or other string using Latin letters) it will probably get lost during the conversion.

The CoNLL format contains only the chunk heads. The native SSF format shows the other words in the chunk, too, but it does not capture intra-chunk dependency relations. This is an example of a multi-word chunk:

3       ((      NP      <fs af='rumAla,n,,sg,,d,0,0' head="rumAla" drel=k2:VGF name=NP3>
3.1     ekatA   QC      <fs af='eka,num,,,,,,'>
3.2     ledisa  JJ      <fs af='ledisa,unk,,,,,,'>
3.3     rumAla  NN      <fs af='rumAla,n,,sg,,d,0,0' name="rumAla">
        ))

In the CoNLL format, the CPOS column contains the chunk label (e.g. NP = noun phrase) and the POS column contains the part of speech of the chunk head.

Occasionally there are NULL nodes that do not correspond to any surface chunk or token. They represent ellided participants.

The syntactic tags (dependency relation labels) are karaka relations, i.e. deep syntactic roles according to the Pāṇinian grammar. There are separate versions of the treebank with fine-grained and coarse-grained syntactic tags.

According to (Husain et al., 2010), in the ICON 2010 version, the chunk tags, POS tags and inter-chunk dependencies (topology + tags) were annotated manually. The rest (lemma, morphosyntactic features, headword of chunk) was marked automatically.

Note: There have been cycles in the Hindi part of HyDT but no such problem occurs in the Bengali part.

Nonprojectivities in HyDT-Bangla are not frequent. Only 78 of the 7252 chunks in the training+development ICON 2010 version are attached nonprojectively (1.08%).

The results of the ICON 2009 NLP tools contest have been published in (Husain, 2009). There were two evaluation rounds, the first with the coarse-grained syntactic tags, the second with the fine-grained syntactic tags. To reward language independence, only systems that parsed all three languages were officially ranked. The following table presents the Bengali/coarse-grained results of the four officially ranked systems, and the best Bengali-only* system.

Parser (Authors)	LAS	UAS
Kolkata (De et al.)*	84.29	90.32
Hyderabad (Ambati et al.)	78.25	90.22
Malt (Nivre)	76.07	88.97
Malt+MST (Zeman)	71.49	86.89
Mannem	70.34	83.56

The results of the ICON 2010 NLP tools contest have been published in (Husain et al., 2010), page 6. These are the best results for Bengali with fine-grained syntactic tags:

Parser (Authors)	LAS	UAS
Attardi et al.	70.66	87.41
Kosaraju et al.	70.55	86.16
Kolachina et al.	70.14	87.10

CoNLL 2007 (CESS-Cat)
CoNLL 2009 (AnCora-CA)

The dependency treebank Cat3LB was extracted automatically from an earlier constituent-based annotation (see Montserrat Civit, Ma. Antònia Martí, Núria Bufí: Cat3LB and Cast3LB: From Constituents to Dependencies. In: T. Salakoski et al. (eds.): FinTAL 2006, LNAI 4139, pp. 141–152, 2006, Springer, Berlin / Heidelberg)

The AnCora-CA corpus ought to be freely downloadable from its website. The download will not work for unregistered and not signed in users. The website offers creating new account but it is not automatic, one has to wait for approval.

Republication of the two CoNLL versions in LDC is planned but it has not happenned yet.

The CoNLL 2007 license in short:

- The original CoNLL 2007 license required a reference to the CESS-ECE project, not a publication: M. Antònia Martí Antonín, Mariona Taulé Delor, Lluís Màrquez, Manuel Bertran (2007) CESS-ECE: A Multilingual and Multilevel Annotated Corpus.
- Later there was the LREC paper, which is now the required reference for the AnCora corpus.

AnCora-CA was created by members of the Centre de Llenguatge i Computació (CLiC), Universitat de Barcelona, Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes 585, E-08007 Barcelona, Spain.

Mostly newswire (EFE news, ACN Catalan news, Catalan version of El Periódico, 2000).

The CoNLL 2007 version contains 435,860 tokens in 15125 sentences, yielding 28.82 tokens per sentence on average (CoNLL 2007 data split: 430,844 tokens / 14958 sentences training, 5016 tokens / 167 sentences test).

The CoNLL 2009 version contains 496,672 tokens in 16786 sentences, yielding 29.59 tokens per sentence on average (CoNLL 2009 data split: 390,302 tokens / 13200 sentences training, 53015 tokens / 1724 sentences development, 53355 tokens / 1862 sentences test).

The original morphosyntactic tags (EAGLES?) have been converted to fit into the three columns (CPOS, POS and FEAT) columns of the CoNLL 2006/7 format, resp. the two columns (POS and FEAT) of the CoNLL 2009 format. Note that the missing CPOS column is not the only difference between the two conversion schemes. Feature names and values in the FEAT column are different, too.

The morphosyntactic tags have been disambiguated manually. The CoNLL 2009 version also contains automatically disambiguated tags.

Multi-word expressions have been collapsed into one token, using underscore as the joining character. This includes named entities (e.g. La_Garrotxa, Ajuntament_de_Manresa, dilluns_4_de_juny) and prepositional compounds (pel_que_fa_al, d'_acord_amb, la_seva, a_més_de). Empty (underscore) tokens have been inserted to represent missing subjects (Catalan is a pro-drop language).

Nonprojectivities in AnCora-CA are very rare. Only 487 of the 435,860 tokens in the CoNLL 2007 version are attached nonprojectively (0.11%). In the CoNLL 2009 version, there are no nonprojectivities at all.

The results of the CoNLL 2007 shared task are available online. They have been published in (Nivre et al., 2007). The evaluation procedure was changed to include punctuation tokens. These are the best results for Catalan:

Parser (Authors)	LAS	UAS
Titov et al.	87.40	93.40
Sagae	88.16	93.34
Malt (Nilsson et al.)	88.70	93.12
Nakagawa	87.90	92.86
Carreras	87.60	92.46
Malt (Hall et al.)	87.74	92.20

The two Malt parser results of 2007 (single malt and blended) are described in (Hall et al., 2007) and the details about the parser configuration are described here.

The results of the CoNLL 2009 shared task are available online. They have been published in (Hajič et al., 2009). Unlabeled attachment score was not published. These are the best results for Catalan:

Parser (Authors)	LAS
Merlo	87.86
Che	86.56
Bohnet	86.35
Chen	85.88

The CoNLL 2006 version is based on PDT 1.0. The CoNLL 2007 and 2009 versions are based on PDT 2.0.

The original PDT 1.0 and 2.0 is distributed by the LDC under the catalogue numbers LDC2001T10 and LDC2006T01. It is free for LDC members 2001 and 2006, price for non-members is unknown (contact LDC). The license in short:

include in publications: “The Prague Dependency Treebank, version 2.0 has been developed by the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics, http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/.”

The CoNLL 2006, 2007 and 2009 versions are obtainable upon request under similar license terms. Their publication in the LDC together with the other CoNLL treebanks is being prepared.

PDT was created by members of the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics (Ústav formální a aplikované lingvistiky, ÚFAL), Faculty of Mathematics and Physics (Matematicko-fyzikální fakulta), Charles University in Prague (Univerzita Karlova v Praze), Malostranské náměstí 25, Praha, CZ-11800, Czechia. The CoNLL 2006 conversion of the treebank was prepared by Yuval Krymolowski; the CoNLL 2007 and 2009 conversions were prepared by ÚFAL (Zdeněk Žabokrtský and Jan Štěpánek).
