| Challenge: | Currently, Turkish treebanks are limited due to the limited number of annotated sentences in the domains of Wikipedia and ITU Web Treebanks. |
| Approach: | They propose to annotate Turkish web and Wikipedia sentences for segmentation, morphology, part-of-speech and dependency relations using tagsets and a Wikipedia section. |
| Outcome: | The proposed treebank is the largest publicly available morpho-syntactic treebank in terms of word count and has a dedicated Wikipedia section. |

| Challenge: | a team of linguists manually annotated a set of constituency trees. |
| Approach: | They propose to create the first Turkish-based dependency-to-constituency conversion algorithm using a morphologic analyser and feature-based machine learning model. |
| Outcome: | The proposed algorithm can be used to generate new constituency treebanks and training data for NLP resources like constituency parsers. |
Parser Training with Heterogeneous Treebanks (P18-2)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | In the 2017 CoNLL Shared Task on Universal Dependency Parsing, 25 languages have more than one treebank . many teams did not take advantage of the multiple treebanks, however, and trained one model per treebank instead of one model for each language. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to make the most of heterogeneous treebanks when training a monolingual parser. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves on training with multiple treebanks for a single language. |
TwittIrish: A Universal Dependencies Treebank of Tweets in Modern Irish (2022.acl-long)

| Challenge: | Modern Irish is a minority language lacking computational resources for accurate automatic syntactic parsing of user-generated content. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a treebank to facilitate natural language parsing of user-generated content in Irish. |
| Outcome: | The proposed treebank enables natural language processing of user-generated content in Irish. |
Dependency Tree Annotation with Mechanical Turk (D19-59)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a recent study shows that crowdsourcing is often used to obtain linguistic annotations but is rarely used for parsing. |
| Approach: | They propose to use Mechanical Turk to crowdsource parse trees using an interactive graphical dependency tree editor. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is the first published use of Mechanical Turk to crowdsource parse trees . the authors find that the workers achieve high levels of accuracy on 72% of the sentences . |

| Challenge: | Universal Dependencies is an open community effort to create cross-linguistically consistent treebank annotation for many languages. |
| Approach: | They describe version 2 of the universal guidelines and discuss major changes from UD v1 to UD 2 . they propose a morphological layer, a syntactic layer and a word segmentation layer . |
| Outcome: | The proposed treebanks are available for 90 languages and have been updated to meet the needs of multilingual parsers and researchers. |

| Challenge: | Using a rule-based parser, we construct a treebank with morphological annotations of Ancient Hebrew . the Hebrew Scriptures are a collection of 39 books written in the first millennium BC in Ancient Hebrew. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a Universal Dependencies treebank with morphological annotations of Ancient Hebrew for comparative study with ancient translations and analysis of Hebrew syntax. |
| Outcome: | The proposed treebank can be used in comparative study with ancient translations and analysis of Hebrew syntax. |

| Challenge: | a treebank for a north-African Arabic dialect known for code-switching is made freely available . authors: geopolitical events are a factor highlighting a language deficiency in terms of natural language processing resources . |
| Approach: | They propose to make a treebank for a romanized user-generated content variety of Algerian . they supplement it with 50k unlabeled sentences from common crawl and web-crawled data . |
| Outcome: | The proposed treebank is made of 1500 sentences, fully annotated in morpho-syntax and universal dependency syntax, with full translation at both the word and sentence levels. |

Treebank Embedding Vectors for Out-of-Domain Dependency Parsing (2020.acl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a recent advance in monolingual dependency parsing is the idea of a treebank embedding vector . this allows the model to prefer training data from one treebank over another at test time . |
| Approach: | They propose a method to predict a treebank vector for sentences that do not come from a particular treebank . they also explore what happens when they move away from predefined treebank embedding vectors . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method can predict treebank vectors for sentences that do not come from a treebank used in training with sufficient accuracy for nine out of ten languages. |
