Abstract
Les ressources linguistiques permettant aux études cross-langues de se développer sont très importantes pour les langues minoritaires telles que l’irlandais, car elles favorisent le partage des ressources pour palier au problème du manque de données. Le projet «Universal Dependencies » (UD) a pour but de faciliter les études cross-langues des arbres syntaxiques, des structures linguistiques et de l’analyse syntaxique. L’objectif principal de ce projet est de former un ensemble harmonieux d’arbres syntaxiques en utilisant un schéma d’annotations universelles. Dans cet article, nous présentons la transformation de l’arbre de dépendance syntaxique irlandais (IDT) (Lynn, 2016) au schéma d’annotations universelles du projet UD, suivie d’une description claire des changements structurels nécessaires à cette conversion. Le nouvel arbre est ainsi appelé « Irish Universal Dependency Treebank » ( IUDT ). Language resources that enable cross-lingual studies have become increasingly valuable for lesserresourced languages such as Irish, as they allow for easier sharing of resources, thus overcoming the problem of data scarcity. The Universal Dependencies (UD) Project1 is an initiative aimed at cross-lingual studies of treebanks, linguistic structures and parsing. Its goal is to create a set of multilingual harmonised treebanks that are designed according to a universal annotation scheme. In this paper, we report on the conversion of the Irish Dependency Treebank (IDT) (Lynn, 2016) to a UD version of the treebank which we term the Irish Universal Dependency Treebank (IUDT). We report on the mapping of the IDT labelling scheme to the UD scheme, along with a clear description of the structural changes required in this conversion.
