DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT: We describe the process of b
 uilding the first tree-bank for Modern Hebrew text
 s. A major concern in this process is the need for
  reducing the cost of manual annotation by the use
  of automatic means. To this end, the joint utilit
 y of an automatic morphological analyzer, a probab
 ilistic parser and a small manually annotated tree
 -bank was explored. An initial tree-bank that cons
 ists of 500 annotated sentences from a daily newsp
 aper is described. The annotation scheme that unde
 rlies the tree-bank analyses integrates morphology
  and syntax. An existing morphological analyzer an
 d a language-independent probabilistic parser were
  applied to this tree-bank. Based on the results o
 f some experiments with these tools, a semi-automa
 tic procedure for future enlargement of the tree-b
 ank is outlined.    For abstracts and more informa
 tion, see http://lit.science.uva.nl/News/seminar01

 ABSTRACT: We describe the process of building the 
 first tree-bank for\n        Modern Hebrew texts. 
 A major concern in this process is the need for\n 
        reducing the cost of manual annotation by t
 he use of automatic\n        means. To this end, t
 he joint utility of an automatic morphological\n  
       analyzer, a probabilistic parser and a small
  manually annotated\n        tree-bank was explore
 d. An initial tree-bank that consists of 500\n    
     annotated sentences from a daily newspaper is 
 described. The\n        annotation scheme that und
 erlies the tree-bank analyses integrates\n        
 morphology and syntax. An existing morphological a
 nalyzer and a\n        language-independent probab
 ilistic parser were applied to this\n        tree-
 bank.  Based on the results of some experiments wi
 th these tools,\n        a semi-automatic procedur
 e for future enlargement of the tree-bank is\n    
     outlined.\n      </p>\n    \n      <p>\n
