The Sequoia corpus is a set of 3,099 linguistically-annotated French sentences, originating from four sources (Europarl, European Agency Reports, French regional journal L'Est Républicain, and French wikipedia).
Several types of annotations were added over the years.
The current release comprises:
- parts-of-speech (SEQUOIA ANR-08-EMER-013 project)
- syntactic dependency trees
- deep syntactic dependency graphs (Deep sequoia project)
- multi-word expressions and named entities (PARSEME COST project and PARSEME-FR ANR-14-CERA-0001 project)
- coarse semantic tags for nouns (FrSemCor project)
See the deep sequoia page for a detailed description: https://deep-sequoia.inria.fr/
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 is the second release of UD Treebanks, Version 1.1.
