III UNL Olympiad (open discussion phase)

[martins]

Dear All,

We have concluded the first phase of the III UNL Olympiad, which consisted in providing our reference corpus. The results, for each language, can be exported from UNLWEB>UNLARIUM>CORPUS>UGO-A1>EXPORT.


The second phase of the III Olympiad consists in an open discussion of the results above. We would ask all the people interested in participating in the Olympiad to check the results and report any problems (typos, non-standard use of the language, incomplete generations, wrong mappings, missing possible sentences, etc.). It is important to remember that this corpus will be used as the reference for the III Olympiad, i.e., the participants will have to analyze those natural language sentences into UNL, and generate them out of UNL.


The problems must be reported at a new forum "Olympiad" that has been created at the UNLforum. The posts can be published directly in the forum ( olympiad@unlweb.net  . Users interested in following the discussions by e-mail must join the forum mailing list.


In order to organize the discussion, we would ask the participants to follow the guidelines below:



a) to use, as the subject of the message/post, the three-character ISO code of the language followed a colon and the graph ID (for instance, fra:389662 will be the subject of the post corresponding to the problems found in the NLization, to French, of the graph 389662). The graph ID is the six-digit number that can be found after S: in the UNL file available for each language.


b) to have one single thread per sentence ID per language (i.e., all the problems related to the NLization of the same UNL graph in a given language must be reported in the same post); and any replies to the problem must be reported in the same thread. So, before creating a new post, check whether the forum already contains a thread for a given graph ID.


c) in case of generic problems for a given language (missing sentences, for instance), the posts should contain only the language code (i.e., fra for generic problems concerning the French NLization).


The forum will be opened for discussion until January 30th. After this date, it will be closed and we will evaluate the problems and, if necessary, make the corresponding changes. The official corpus will be released on Feb 15th, when the competition will begin.



Best regards,


Ronaldo.
