Abstract:
DEFT Spanish Treebank was developed by the Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC) and the Language and Computation Center (CLiC), University of Barcelona. It contains treebank annotation of international Spanish newswire text and Latin American Spanish discussion forum data created for the DARPA Deep Exploration and Filtering of Text (DEFT) program.
DEFT aimed to improve state-of-the-art capabilities in automated deep natural language processing with a particular focus on technologies dealing with inference, casual relationships and anomaly detection across several languages. DEFT Spanish Treebank supported the program's goal of deep natural language understanding.
