The Tibidabo Treebank

Resumen

This paper describes work in progress for the creation of a new open--source resource for Spanish: an HPSG--based treebank so--called Tibidabo. The annotation is performed semi-automatically. First, the corpus is automatically annotated by a symbolic HPSG--based grammar for Spanish implemented on the Linguistic Knowledge Builder system; then, the
output is manually disambiguated. The existence of the Tibidabo treebank will facilitate research into the development and evaluation of a hybrid architecture combining symbolic and
stochastic approaches to NLP, as well as investigations oriented to
hybridization of shallow--deep techniques for NLP.
