Hello,
We are working in the project where we need a "good" dependency parser
for French, but it seems... there is no tool for this purpose. We
found Maltparser could be used for any language but it needs to be
trained on a large French treebank which we don't have (actually we
don't think it's easy to get this resource). I am wondering if there
is any other tool for this specific purpose? Any suggestion would be
highly welcome!
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards,
Wang
I guess the best one is the one Jacques Chauché
has derived from his multilevel parser for
French, SYGFRAN (which produces
Vauquois-Weissenborn multilevel structures), for
competitions on dependency parsing. If I am not
mistaken, it has come first or in very good
position in 2 competitions on dependency parsers
for French, GRACE and EASY. It has a quite large
coverage (with about 50000 simple and comound
lexical units, including many nominal and verbal
idioms).
I put his group in copy. They might have a web
server not only for SYGFRAN, but for the
dependency trees output.
Best regards,
Xan
