UC-B1 is an experimental corpus used to refine the initial versions of the grammar for sentence-based UNLization and NLization, using IAN and EUGENE, respectively. It comprises 5 very short texts in English and their corresponding graphs in UNL.

Contents

The Corpus

UC-B1 consists of 5 texts, which are translations of Aesop's fables to English. Most of them have been derived from the standard version by George Fyler Townsend (available at The Project Gutenberg), but they have suffered slight changes in order to become more suitable for natural language processing.

Text Title English* UNL** Number of sentences
Text 1 The Hare and the Tortoise UCB1_t1_eng.txt UCB1_t1_unl.txt 13
Text 2 The Bat and The Weasels UCB1_t2_eng.txt to be provided soon 10
Text 3 The Father and his Sons UCB1_t3_eng.txt to be provided soon 11
Text 4 The Ants and the Grasshopper UCB1_t4_eng.txt to be provided soon 10
Text 5 The Man and the Lion UCB1_t5_eng.txt to be provided soon 11

*To be manually translated to your target language in order to be used as the input for UNLization (IAN)
**To be used as the input for NLization (EUGENE)
***To be used for the natural language generation dictionary

Goals

  1. To provide the dictionary and grammars necessary to UNLize your translated version of UC-B1 (with IAN)
  2. To provide the dictionary and grammars necessary to NLize, to your target language, the UNL version of UC-B1 (with EUGENE)

Samples and Examples

The following resources have been used to deal with UC-A1 in English and may be used as a sample of what is expected to be provided

Recommended Readings

Before starting the activity, and in order to fully understand what is expected to be done, it is important for you to be acquainted with the following documentation:

  • Tagset, because you are expected to use only the tags included in the tagset
  • UNL Dictionary Specs, which is essential to understand the dictionary structure
  • UNL Grammar Specs, which is essential to understand the grammar structure

It is also interesting to make a test drive with IAN and EUGENE.
