Universal Dependencies for Croatian (that work for Serbian, too)
Żeljko Agić, Nikola Ljubešić · 2015
We introduce a new dependency treebank for Croatian within the Universal Dependencies framework. We construct it on top of the SETIMES.HR corpus, augmenting the resource by additional part-of- speech and dependency-syntactic annotation layers adherent to the framework guidelines. In this contribution, we outline the treebank design choices, and we use the resource to benchmark dependency parsing of Croatian and Serbian. We also experiment with cross- lingual transfer parsing into the two languages, and we make all resources freely available.
