CUNI x-ling: Parsing under-resourced languages in CoNLL 2018 UD Shared Task

Abstract

This is a system description paper for the CUNI x-ling submission to the CoNLL 2018 UD Shared Task. We focused on parsing under-resourced languages, with no or little training data available.

We employed a wide range of approaches, including simple word-based treebank translation, combination of delexicalized parsers, and exploitation of available morphological dictionaries, with a dedicated setup tailored to each of the languages. In the official evaluation, our submission was identified as the clear winner of the Low-resource languages category.
