Wikipedia plain text data obtained from Wikipedia dumps with WikiExtractor in February 2018.
The data come from all Wikipedias for which dumps could be downloaded at [https://dumps.wikimedia.org/]. This amounts to 297 Wikipedias, usually corresponding to individual languages and identified by their ISO codes. Several special Wikipedias are included, most notably "simple" (Simple English Wikipedia) and "incubator" (tiny hatching Wikipedias in various languages).
For a list of all the Wikipedias, see [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wikipedias].
The script which can be used to get new version of the data is included, but note that Wikipedia limits the download speed for downloading a lot of the dumps, so it takes a few days to download all of them (but one or a few can be downloaded fast).
Also, the format of the dumps changes time to time, so the script will probably eventually stop working one day.
The WikiExtractor tool [http://medialab.di.unipi.it/wiki/Wikipedia_Extractor] used to extract text from the Wikipedia dumps is not mine, I only modified it slightly to produce plaintext outputs [https://github.com/ptakopysk/wikiextractor].
Trained models for UDPipe used to produce our final submission to the Vardial 2017 CLP shared task (https://bitbucket.org/hy-crossNLP/vardial2017). The SK model was trained on CS data, the HR model on SL data, and the SV model on a concatenation of DA and NO data. The scripts and commands used to create the models are part of separate submission (http://hdl.handle.net/11234/1-1970).
The models were trained with UDPipe version 3e65d69 from 3rd Jan 2017, obtained from
https://github.com/ufal/udpipe -- their functionality with newer or older versions of UDPipe is not guaranteed.
We list here the Bash command sequences that can be used to reproduce our results submitted to VarDial 2017. The input files must be in CoNLLU format. The models only use the form, UPOS, and Universal Features fields (SK only uses the form). You must have UDPipe installed. The feats2FEAT.py script, which prunes the universal features, is bundled with this submission.
SK -- tag and parse with the model:
udpipe --tag --parse sk-translex.v2.norm.feats07.w2v.trainonpred.udpipe sk-ud-predPoS-test.conllu
A slightly better after-deadline model (sk-translex.v2.norm.Case-feats07.w2v.trainonpred.udpipe), which we mention in the accompanying paper, is also included. It is applied in the same way (udpipe --tag --parse sk-translex.v2.norm.Case-feats07.w2v.trainonpred.udpipe sk-ud-predPoS-test.conllu).
HR -- prune the Features to keep only Case and parse with the model:
python3 feats2FEAT.py Case < hr-ud-predPoS-test.conllu | udpipe --parse hr-translex.v2.norm.Case.w2v.trainonpred.udpipe
NO -- put the UPOS annotation aside, tag Features with the model, merge with the left-aside UPOS annotation, and parse with the model (this hassle is because UDPipe cannot be told to keep UPOS and only change Features):
cut -f1-4 no-ud-predPoS-test.conllu > tmp
udpipe --tag no-translex.v2.norm.tgttagupos.srctagfeats.Case.w2v.udpipe no-ud-predPoS-test.conllu | cut -f5- | paste tmp - | sed 's/^\t$//' | udpipe --parse no-translex.v2.norm.tgttagupos.srctagfeats.Case.w2v.udpipe
Tools and scripts used to create the cross-lingual parsing models submitted to VarDial 2017 shared task (https://bitbucket.org/hy-crossNLP/vardial2017), as described in the linked paper. The trained UDPipe models themselves are published in a separate submission (https://lindat.mff.cuni.cz/repository/xmlui/handle/11234/1-1971).
For each source (SS, e.g. sl) and target (TT, e.g. hr) language,
you need to add the following into this directory:
- treebanks (Universal Dependencies v1.4):
SS-ud-train.conllu
TT-ud-predPoS-dev.conllu
- parallel data (OpenSubtitles from Opus):
OpenSubtitles2016.SS-TT.SS
OpenSubtitles2016.SS-TT.TT
!!! If they are originally called ...TT-SS... instead of ...SS-TT...,
you need to symlink them (or move, or copy) !!!
- target tagging model
TT.tagger.udpipe
All of these can be obtained from https://bitbucket.org/hy-crossNLP/vardial2017
You also need to have:
- Bash
- Perl 5
- Python 3
- word2vec (https://code.google.com/archive/p/word2vec/); we used rev 41 from 15th Sep 2014
- udpipe (https://github.com/ufal/udpipe); we used commit 3e65d69 from 3rd Jan 2017
- Treex (https://github.com/ufal/treex); we used commit d27ee8a from 21st Dec 2016
The most basic setup is the sl-hr one (train_sl-hr.sh):
- normalization of deprels
- 1:1 word-alignment of parallel data with Monolingual Greedy Aligner
- simple word-by-word translation of source treebank
- pre-training of target word embeddings
- simplification of morpho feats (use only Case)
- and finally, training and evaluating the parser
Both da+sv-no (train_ds-no.sh) and cs-sk (train_cs-sk.sh) add some cross-tagging, which seems to be useful only in
specific cases (see paper for details).
Moreover, cs-sk also adds more morpho features, selecting those that
seem to be very often shared in parallel data.
The whole pipeline takes tens of hours to run, and uses several GB of RAM, so make sure to use a powerful computer.
Slovak Dependency Treebank (Slovenský závislostný korpus) was created as part of the Slovak National Corpus at the Ľ. Štúr Institute of the Slovak Academy of Sciences. The annotation follows the guidelines of the Prague Dependency Treebank (Czech), slightly modified in the spirit of Slovak grammatical tradition. Morphological tags, lemmas and dependency relations have been assigned manually to every word.
The present dataset is a subset of the original treebank. We automatically selected the sentences where the two human annotators 100% agreed on the analysis. This increases the quality and trustworthiness of the data but it also results in selecting short sentences most of the time. An extended version may be published in the future when manually merged and checked annotation is available.
The selected sentences have been converted to the CoNLL-X file format (original token IDs are preserved in the FEATS column). This PDT-style annotation will serve as the source for the first Slovak dataset in the Universal Dependencies (to be published separately).
Slovak models for MorphoDiTa, providing morphological analysis, morphological generation and part-of-speech tagging.
The morphological dictionary is created from MorfFlex SK 170914 and the PoS tagger is trained on automatically translated Prague Dependency Treebank 3.0 (PDT).
Pretrained model weights for the UDify model, and extracted BERT weights in pytorch-transformers format. Note that these weights slightly differ from those used in the paper.
Universal Dependencies is a project that seeks to develop cross-linguistically consistent treebank annotation for many languages, with the goal of facilitating multilingual parser development, cross-lingual learning, and parsing research from a language typology perspective. The annotation scheme is based on (universal) Stanford dependencies (de Marneffe et al., 2006, 2008, 2014), Google universal part-of-speech tags (Petrov et al., 2012), and the Interset interlingua for morphosyntactic tagsets (Zeman, 2008).

This release is special in that the treebanks will be used as training/development data in the CoNLL 2017 shared task (http://universaldependencies.org/conll17/). Test data are not released, except for the few treebanks that do not take part in the shared task. 64 treebanks will be in the shared task, and they correspond to the following 45 languages: Ancient Greek, Arabic, Basque, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, Galician, German, Gothic, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Irish, Italian, Japanese, Kazakh, Korean, Latin, Latvian, Norwegian, Old Church Slavonic, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Urdu, Uyghur and Vietnamese.

This release contains the test data used in the CoNLL 2017 shared task on parsing Universal Dependencies. Due to the shared task the test data was held hidden and not released together with the training and development data of UD 2.0. Therefore this release complements the UD 2.0 release (http://hdl.handle.net/11234/1-1983) to a full release of UD treebanks. In addition, the present release contains 18 new parallel test sets and 4 test sets in surprise languages. The present release also includes the development data already released with UD 2.0. Unlike regular UD releases, this one uses the folder-file structure that was visible to the systems participating in the shared task.
