[Corpora-List] Converting Penn Treebank into Dependency Parse

[Kuebler, Sandra Claudia]

Hi Jordan,

There is a tool called LTH Converter, by Pierre Nugues and and Richard 
Johannson, you can find it at: http://nlp.cs.lth.se/pennconverter/. 
This is the tool that was used to prepare the English data for the 
CoNLL 2007 Shared Task on dependency parsing. It is an improved version 
of the Penn2malt, a tool  developed by Joakim Nivre and his group, 
which can be found at: 
http://w3.msi.vxu.se/~nivre/research/Penn2Malt.html

Best,

Sandra
