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/
Semantic net `sholva' contains more than 150 000 records for which there was sufficient agreement among annotators. Indvidual words are labeled in the following categories:
person, person / individual, event and substance.
