(sorry in advance for cross-posting)

************** SPMRL 2013 SHARED TASK **************
The fourth SPMRL workshop (www.spmrl.org), 
collocated with EMNLP 2013, hosts the first shared
task on parsing morphologically rich languages.


***** Summary *****
It's still possible to participate to the SPMRL 2013 shared task:
a multilingual, multiframework shared task on statistical
parsing of morphologically-rich language!

Webpage (official): http://www.spmrl.org/spmrl2013-sharedtask.html
test submission deadline : August 18, 2013 
(test data release: July 28, 2013)


***** Introduction *****

The primary goal of the shared task on parsing morphologically rich
languages is to bring forward work on parsing morphologically
ambiguous input in both dependency and constituency parsing, and
to show the state of the art for MRLs. In the longer term, we aim
to provide streamlined data sets and evaluation metrics, thus
improving the comparability of cross-linguistic work on parsing
MRLs. The shared task features tracks in constituency parsing and
in dependency parsing, in gold as well as in realistic scenarios
(the realistic scenario will have no gold tokenization, no gold
part-of-speech tags and morphological features).


***** Data set *****
The participants will be provided with data from 9 different languages:
Arabic, Basque, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Korean, Polish,
Swedish. 
The data are available in Penn Treebank bracketing format,
CoNLL-X format and optionally in TiGerXML. In order to ease
cross-linguistic comparisons, the data set are also released with
a common training size setting (ie. 5000 sentences).

***** Shared Task Schedule *****

Release of test data     			    July 28 
Deadline for submission of test runs    August 18 
Submission and announcement of results  August 23
