The paper finds these cases automatically. Each tree is cut into small tree-adjoining units, and for each word sequence (a "nucleus") every instance is compared with the others in the same internal context. Instances whose reduced… 3. **[Diacritic Annotation in the Arabic Treebank and its Impact on Parser Evaluation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bank-2008-maamouri-diacritic-annotation-arabic-treebank-its/)** *(2008)* The Arabic Treebank is released in a vocalized and an unvocalized form of each file, and most parsing work used the unvocalized trees as "real-world" input. 4. **[Developing an Arabic Treebank: Methods, Guidelines, Procedures, and Tools](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bank-2004-maamouri-developing-arabic-treebank-methods-guidelines/)** *(2004)* The authors report two and a half years of building the Penn Arabic Treebank for unvocalized MSA news text. 5. **[The Penn Treebank: Annotating Predicate Argument Structure](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bank-1994-marcus-penn-treebank-annotating-predicate-argument/)** *(1994)* The paper describes a second annotation scheme for the Penn Treebank, written to make predicate-argument structure recoverable from the trees. ## Co-authors (13) - [Seth Kulick](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/seth-kulick/) ×3 - [Justin Mott](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/justin-mott/) ×2 - [Mohamed Maamouri](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mohamed-maamouri/) ×2 - [Anthony Kroch](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/anthony-kroch/) - [Beatrice Santorini](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/beatrice-santorini/) - Britta Schasberger - Grace Kim - Karen Katz - Mark Ferguson - Mark Liberman - [Mary Ann Marcinkiewicz](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mary-ann-marcinkiewicz/) - [Mitchell Marcus](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mitchell-marcus/) - Robert MacIntyre ## More papers in the library (1) Pages of the Research library: our summary, the ideas, references and who cites each. - [Cross-Document, Cross-Language Event Coreference Annotation Using Event Hoppers](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/song-2018-cross-document-cross-language-event/) — Zhiyi Song, Ann Bies, Justin Mott, et al. · 2018
