Description

Latvian UD Treebank is based on Latvian Treebank (LVTB), being created at University of Latvia, Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.

Latvian UD Treebank v2.11 consists of 18’295 sentences (309’419 tokens), and it has been obtained by automatic conversion of both the morphological and the syntactic annotations of the original LVTB treebank. LVTB data contains manually verified syntactic annotation according to a hybrid dependency-constituency schema, as well as manually verified morphological tags and lemmas. LVTB is released in parallel with Latvian UD Treebank since v2.2 and features the same version numbers. The corresponding LVTB versions are listed here. Key LvtbNodeId in Latvian UD Treebank CoNLL-U field MISC provides the mapping from Latvian UD Treebank to LVTB. Each LVTB version is superset of the corresponding Latvian UD Treebank version in terms of included sentences.
