[Corpora-List] Chinese POS tagger and syntactic parser.

[liuqun]

The Chinese segmentater and POS tagger (ICTCLAS) and Chinese parser (ICTPROP)
was developed by our group --
the NLP group in Institute of Computing Technlogy, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

ICTCLAS is a full functional Chinese word segmentater and POS tagger.
It got a good result in the first SIGHAN Chinese word segmentation
bakeoff.  An open source version for ICTCLAS is called freeICTCLAS.
For source code and linux port for freeICTCLAS, please visit
"Chinese NLP Platform" (http://www.nlp.org.cn).
You should register an account using your real information before downloading
the freeICTCLAS.  The online test for ICTCLAS is:
    http://mtgroup.ict.ac.cn/~zhp/ICTCLAS.htm

ICTPROP is a probabilistic Chinese parser, which is trained using
Penn Chinese Treebank (ver1.0).  Both label precision and recall
of ICTPROP are about 77%.
A free version of ICTPROP is also available in "Chinese NLP Platform".
However, the free version of ICTPROP is just a prototype system,
which was trained with a smaller treebank rather than Penn Chinese Treebank.
The online test for full version ICTPROP is:
    http://mtgroup.ict.ac.cn/parserform.html

All the above webpages are in Chinese, there is no English version currently.
For more information of ICTCLAS and ICTPROP, please contact me.
