Creating a CCGbank and a wide-coverage CCG lexicon for German

Julia Hockenmaier · 2006

We present an algorithm which creates a German CCGbank by translating the syntax graphs in the German Tiger corpus into CCG derivation trees. The resulting corpus contains 46,628 derivations, covering 95% of all complete sentences in Tiger. Lexicons extracted from this corpus contain correct lexical entries for 94% of all known tokens in unseen text.
