Fairytale Child is a simple chatbot trying to simulate a curious child. It asks the user to tell a fairy tale, often interrupting to ask for details and clarifications. However, it remembers what it was told and tries to show it if possible.
The chatbot can communicate in Czech and in English. It analyzes the morphology of each sentence produced by the user with natural language processing tools, tries to identify potential questions to ask, and then asks one. A morphological generator is employed to generate correctly inflected sentences in Czech, so that the resulting sentences sound as natural as possible.
Pohádkové dítě je jednoduchý chatbot, simulující zvídavé dítě. Požádá uživatele, aby mu vyprávěl pohádku, ale často ho přerušuje, aby se zeptal na detaily a vysvětlení. Pamatuje si ale, co mu uživatel řekl, a snaží se to pokud možno dát najevo.
Chatbot umí komunikovat česky a anglicky. Analyzuje tvarosloví každé uživatelovy věty pomocí NLP nástrojů, pokusí se nalézt chodnou otázku, a tu pak položí. Aby tvořené české věty zněly co nejpřirozeněji, využívá se pro skloňování tvaroslovný generátor. and The work has been supported by GAUK 1572314 and SVV 260104.
It has been using language resources developed, stored and distributed by the LINDAT/CLARIN project of the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic (project LM2010013).

Segment from Československý zvukový týdeník Aktualita (Czechoslovak Aktualita Sound Newsreel) 1943, issue no. 11B, reports on a workers´ holiday organized by the Reinhard Heydrich Foundation for Workers´ Recuperation at the Gymnasion Health Resort in Jarov u Dolních Břežan. Workers are having a warm-up exercise and practise shot putting. Everyone gets an apple as a snack. Minister of Agriculture and Forestry Adolf Hrubý comes for a visit.
Syntactic (including deep-syntactic - tectogrammatical) annotation of user-generated noisy sentences. The annotation was made on Czech-English and English-Czech Faust Dev/Test sets.
The English data includes manual annotations of English reference translations of Czech source texts. This texts were translated independently by two translators. After some necessary cleanings, 1000 segments were randomly selected for manual annotation. Both the reference translations were annotated, which means 2000 annotated segments in total.
The Czech data includes manual annotations of Czech reference translations of English source texts. This texts were translated independently by three translators. After some necessary cleanings, 1000 segments were randomly selected for manual annotation. All three reference translations were annotated, which means 3000 annotated segments in total.
Faust is part of PDT-C 1.0 (http://hdl.handle.net/11234/1-3185).
This machine translation test set contains 2223 Czech sentences collected within the FAUST project (https://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/grants/faust, http://hdl.handle.net/11234/1-3308).
Each original (noisy) sentence was normalized (clean1 and clean2) and translated to English independently by two translators.

The FERNET-C5 is a monolingual BERT language representation model trained from scratch on the Czech Colossal Clean Crawled Corpus (C5) data - a Czech mutation of the English C4 dataset. The training data contained almost 13 billion words (93 GB of text data). The model has the same architecture as the original BERT model, i.e. 12 transformation blocks, 12 attention heads and the hidden size of 768 neurons. In contrast to Google’s BERT models, we used SentencePiece tokenization instead of the Google’s internal WordPiece tokenization.
More details can be found in README.txt. Yet more detailed description is available in https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.10042
The same models are also released at https://huggingface.co/fav-kky/FERNET-C5
FicTree is a dependency treebank of Czech fiction manually annotated in the format of the analytical layer of the Prague Dependency Trebank. The treebank consists of 12,760 sentences (166,432 tokens). The texts come from eight literary works published in the Czech Republic between 1991 and 2007. The syntactic annotation of the treebank was first performed by two distinct parsers (MSTParser and MaltParser) trained on the PDT training data, then manually corrected. Any differences between the two versions were resolved manually (by another annotator).
The corpus is provided in a vertical format, where sentence boundaries are marked with a blank line. Every word form is written on a separate line, followed by five tab-separated attributes: lemma, tag, ID (word index in the sentence), head and deprel (analytical function, afun in the PDT formalism). The texts are shuffled in random chunks of maximum 100 words (respecting sentence boundaries). Each chunk is provided as a separate file, with the suggested division into train, dev and test sets written as file prefix.
