[Corpora-List] Announcement: Release of the Dependency Treebank Database DTDB 1.0

[Joakim Nivre]

Hi Olga,

In the CoNLL shared tasks on dependency parsing in 2006 and 2007, a number 
of treebanks were used, some of which do not yet seem to be part of the 
database:

Prague Arabic Dependency Treebank
Basque Dependency Treebank
Sinica Treebank (Chinese)
Penn Treebank (English)
Tiger Treebank (German)
Greek Dependency Treebank
Szeged Treebank (Hungarian)
Italian Syntactic-Semantic Treebank
Verbmobil Treebank (Japanese)
Floresta Sintactica (Portuguese)
Metu-Sabanci Turkish Treebank

Of course, not all of these are genuine dependency treebanks, but judging 
from the treebanks included in the database so far, this does not seem to 
be a necessary requirement.

In addition, there are two depedency treebanks for Latin, although I think 
they are being merged, and a third treebank for Italian (the Venice 
Italian Treebank), which also exists in a dependency version. 

Best,
Joakim
