CorefUD is a collection of previously existing datasets annotated with coreference, which we converted into a common annotation scheme. In total, CorefUD in its current version 0.1 consists of 17 datasets for 11 languages.
The datasets are enriched with automatic morphological and syntactic annotations that are fully compliant with the standards of the Universal Dependencies project. All the datasets are stored in the CoNLL-U format, with coreference- and bridging-specific information captured by attribute-value pairs located in the MISC column.
The collection is divided into a public edition and a non-public (ÚFAL-internal) edition. The publicly available edition is distributed via LINDAT-CLARIAH-CZ and contains 13 datasets for 10 languages (1 dataset for Catalan, 2 for Czech, 2 for English, 1 for French, 2 for German, 1 for Hungarian, 1 for Lithuanian, 1 for Polish, 1 for Russian, and 1 for Spanish), excluding the test data.
The non-public edition is available internally to ÚFAL members and contains additional 4 datasets for 2 languages (1 dataset for Dutch, and 3 for English), which we are not allowed to distribute due to their original license limitations. It also contains the test data portions for all datasets.
When using any of the harmonized datasets, please get acquainted with its license (placed in the same directory as the data) and cite the original data resource too.

Version 0.2 consists of exactly the same datasets as the version 0.1. All automatically parsed datasets were re-parsed for v0.2 using UDPipe 2 with models trained on UD 2.6. Catalan-AnCora, Spanish-AnCora and English-GUM have been updated to match the their UD 2.9 versions.

Nevertheless, the main change is in the file format (the MISC attributes have new form and interpretation).

HamleDT (HArmonized Multi-LanguagE Dependency Treebank) is a compilation of existing dependency treebanks (or dependency conversions of other treebanks), transformed so that they all conform to the same annotation style. This version uses Universal Dependencies as the common annotation style.
Update (November 1017): for a current collection of harmonized dependency treebanks, we recommend using the Universal Dependencies (UD). All of the corpora that are distributed in HamleDT in full are also part of the UD project; only some corpora from the Patch group (where HamleDT provides only the harmonizing scripts but not the full corpus data) are available in HamleDT but not in UD.
This package contains data used in the IWPT 2020 shared task. It contains training, development and test (evaluation) datasets. The data is based on a subset of Universal Dependencies release 2.5 (http://hdl.handle.net/11234/1-3105) but some treebanks contain additional enhanced annotations. Moreover, not all of these additions became part of Universal Dependencies release 2.6 (http://hdl.handle.net/11234/1-3226), which makes the shared task data unique and worth a separate release to enable later comparison with new parsing algorithms. The package also contains a number of Perl and Python scripts that have been used to process the data during preparation and during the shared task. Finally, the package includes the official primary submission of each team participating in the shared task.

MSTperl is a Perl reimplementation of the MST parser of Ryan McDonald (http://www.seas.upenn.edu/~strctlrn/MSTParser/MSTParser.html).
MST parser (Maximum Spanning Tree parser) is a state-of-the-art natural language dependency parser -- a tool that takes a sentence and returns its dependency tree.
In MSTperl, only some functionality was implemented; the limitations include the following:
the parser is a non-projective one, curently with no possibility of enforcing the requirement of projectivity of the parse trees;
only first-order features are supported, i.e. no second-order or third-order features are possible;
the implementation of MIRA is that of a single-best MIRA, with a closed-form update instead of using quadratic programming.
On the other hand, the parser supports several advanced features:
parallel features, i.e. enriching the parser input with word-aligned sentence in other language;
adding large-scale information, i.e. the feature set enriched with features corresponding to pointwise mutual information of word pairs in a large corpus (CzEng).
The MSTperl parser is tuned for parsing Czech. Trained models are available for Czech, English and German. We can train the parser for other languages on demand, or you can train it yourself -- the guidelines are part of the documentation.
The parser, together with detailed documentation, is avalable on CPAN (http://search.cpan.org/~rur/Treex-Parser-MSTperl/). and The research has been supported by the EU Seventh Framework Programme under grant agreement 247762 (Faust), and by the grants GAUK116310 and GA201/09/H057.
