MaltParser for .NET
MaltParser is a system for data-driven dependency parsing, which can be used to induce a parsing model from treebank
data and to parse new data using an induced model. MaltParser is developed by Johan Hall, Jens Nilsson and Joakim Nivre
at Växjö University and Uppsala University, Sweden.
MaltParser implements nine deterministic parsing algorithms:
- Nivre arc-eager
- Nivre arc-standard
- Covington non-projective
- Covington projective
- Stack projective
- Stack swap-eager
- Stack swap-lazy
- Planar (implemented by
Carlos Gómez-Rodríguez) - 2-planar (implemented by
Carlos Gómez-Rodríguez)
MaltParser allows users to define feature models of arbitrary complexity.
MaltParser currently includes two machine learning packages (thanks to Sofia Cassel for her work on LIBLINEAR):
LIBSVM- A Library for Support Vector Machines (Chang, 2001).LIBLINEAR-- A Library for Large Linear Classification (Fan et al., 2008).
MaltParser can also be turned into a phrase structure parser that recovers both continuous and discontinuous phrases
with both phrase labels and grammatical functions (Hall and Nivre, 2008a; Hall and Nivre, 2008b).
The MaltParser for .NET library can be installed from NuGet:
PM> Install-Package MaltParser
