The Ancient Greek Dependency Treebank: Linguistic Annotation in a Teaching Environment

This chapter argues that manual linguistic annotation of Ancient Greek texts can be effectively employed to teach of Greek literature and languages. Under the supervision of a teacher, students can be engaged into the ongoing creation of the Ancient Greek Dependency Treebank. With the help of one example from Sophocles (Tr. 962\u20133), we will illustrate how the collective work of treebanking in a class environment provides an ideal occasion to discuss the methods of Classical Philology and the history of interpretation of a given passage; more importantly, while producing a treebank annotation, students can learn how to read a complex text in its literary and communicative context following the methods of textual criticism. New and old research questions emerge from the work; at the same time, through the final annotation the students will produce a tangible contribution to a crucial initiative that is likely to change the way Greek grammar will be studied in the future

Netgraph-A Tool for Searching in the Prague Dependency Treebank 2.0

Three sides existed whose connection is solved in this thesis. First, it was the Prague Dependency Treebank 2.0, one of the most advanced treebanks in the linguistic world. Second, there existed a very limited but extremely intuitive search tool - Netgraph 1.0. Third, there were users longing for such a simple and intuitive tool that would be powerful enough to search in the Prague Dependency Treebank. In the thesis, we study the annotation of the Prague Dependency Treebank 2.0, especially on the tectogrammatical layer, which is by far the most complex layer of the treebank, and assemble a list of requirements on a query language that would allow searching for and studying all linguistic phenomena annotated in the treebank. We propose an extension to the query language of the existing search tool Netgraph 1.0 and show that the extended query language satisfies the list of requirements. We also show how all principal linguistic phenomena annotated in the treebank can be searched for with the query language. The proposed query language has also been implemented - we present the search tool as well and talk about the data format for the tool. An attached CD-ROM contains the installation of the tool.Tato práce se zabývá spojením tří existujících stran. Na straně jedné byl Pražský závislostní korpus 2.0, jeden z nejvyspělejších korpusů lingvistického světa. Na straně druhé existoval omezený, ale velmi intuitivní vyhledávací nástroj Netgraph 1.0. A na straně třetí byli uživatelé toužící po takovém jednoduchém nástroji, který by však byl dostatečně silný pro vyhledávání v Pražském závislostním korpusu. V této práci zkoumáme anotaci Pražského závislostního korpusu 2.0, obzvláště tektogramatické roviny, jež je zdaleka nejsložitější rovinou tohoto korpusu, a vytváříme seznam požadavků na dotazovací jazyk, který by umožnil vyhledávání a studium všech lingvistických jevů v korpusu anotovaných. Navrhujeme rozšíření dotazovacího jazyka existujícího vyhledávacího nástroje Netgraphu 1.0 a ukazujeme, že tento rozšířený dotazovací jazyk vyhovuje formulovanému seznamu požadavků. Ukazujeme rovněž, jak pomocí tohoto dotazovacího jazyka mohou být vyhledány všechny podstatné lingvistické jevy anotované v korpusu. Navržený dotazovací jazyk byl rovněž implementován - zmiňujeme se tedy i o vyhledávacím nástroji a hovoříme o datech pro tento nástroj. Nástroj je možno nainstalovat z přiloženého CD-ROMu.Institute of Formal and Applied LinguisticsÚstav formální a aplikované lingvistikyFaculty of Mathematics and PhysicsMatematicko-fyzikální fakult
