## Papers

1. **[Parser Evaluation Using Derivation Trees: A Complement to evalb](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/kulick-2014-parser-evaluation-derivation-trees-complement/)** *(2014)* The standard metric for constituency parsers, evalb, scores matching brackets, so it cannot say which construction went wrong.
2. **[Further Developments in Treebank Error Detection Using Derivation Trees](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/kulick-2012-further-developments-treebank-error-detection/)** *(2012)* Treebank annotators sometimes bracket the same word sequence in different ways. The paper finds these cases automatically. Each tree is cut into small tree-adjoining units, and for each word sequence (a "nucleus") every instance is compared with the others in the same internal context. Instances whose reduced…
3. **[Diacritic Annotation in the Arabic Treebank and its Impact on Parser Evaluation](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/bank-2008-maamouri-diacritic-annotation-arabic-treebank-its/)** *(2008)* The Arabic Treebank is released in a vocalized and an unvocalized form of each file, and most parsing work used the unvocalized trees as "real-world" input.
4. **[Developing an Arabic Treebank: Methods, Guidelines, Procedures, and Tools](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/bank-2004-maamouri-developing-arabic-treebank-methods-guidelines/)** *(2004)* The authors report two and a half years of building the Penn Arabic Treebank for unvocalized MSA news text.
5. **[The Penn Treebank: Annotating Predicate Argument Structure](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/bank-1994-marcus-penn-treebank-annotating-predicate-argument/)** *(1994)* The paper describes a second annotation scheme for the Penn Treebank, written to make predicate-argument structure recoverable from the trees.
