Enhancing CoNLL-U

[vcvpaiva]

We want to add the enhanced dependencies at some stage.
The CoreNLP code says:

• Process multi-word prepositions: Yes issue Multiword functional words from SD #65
• Add prepositions to relation labels: Yes
• Add prepositions only to nmod relations: No
• Add coordinating conjunctions to relation labels: Yes
• Propagate dependents: Yes
• Add "referent" relations: Yes
• Add copy nodes for conjoined Ps and PPs: Yes
• Turn quantificational modifiers into flat MWEs: Yes
• Add relations between controlling subject and controlled verbs: Yes

[vcvpaiva]

which quantificational modifiers?
a few
several

Quantificational patterns:

Three words (a xx of): lot, assortment, number, couple, bunch, handful, litany, sheaf, slew, dozen, series, variety, multitude, wad, clutch, wave, mountain, array, spate, string, ton, range, plethora, heap, sort, form, kind, type, version, bit, pair, triple, total.

Two words (xx of): lots, many, several, plenty, tons, dozens, multitudes, mountains, loads, pairs, tens, hundreds, thousands, millions, billions, trillions

Two words (xx of the, xx of them): some, all, both, neither, everyone, nobody, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, hundred, thousand, million, billion, trillion

Last paragraph is two or three words ?

Good news and bad news. Good news is that I found a way of running the Stanford enhanced dependencies on our CoNLL-U files. The bad news is that they are based exclusively on the UD tagset, which means that I had to run the tool agains the files in the expanded.ud directory. The result is in the expanded.ud.enhanced++ directory.

@arademaker it's three words of course, but they are classified as two words in the code.

I have also updated the bosque interface with both new corpora: SICK-UD for the UD version and SICK-UD++ for the enhanced++ UD version.

Weird ! Are they talking the words in the pattern or something else ?

[vcvpaiva]

wow! I don't know how I missed this!
