View source for Icelandic Parsed Historical Corpus (IcePaHC)

This is the wiki for the '''Icelandic Parsed Historical Corpus (IcePaHC)''' (The Icelandic Treebank). It is mostly used to document the annotation standard for those constructing and using the corpus. The annotation scheme for the Icelandic corpus is mostly compatible with [http://www.ling.upenn.edu/~beatrice/annotation/ the Penn historical corpora], and the guidelines here are written as a supplement to the Penn guidelines, so look at Beatrice Santorini's [http://www.ling.upenn.edu/~beatrice/annotation/ guidelines] for further information.

==Download IcePaHC==

'''You can download the Icelandic corpus from the [[download|download page]]'''. The corpus is released under a free and open source license (LGPL) and there is no registration wall. The current release is version 0.9 of 1,002,390 words total from every century between the 12th and the 21st centuries inclusive. All of the text for version 1.0 is already included but some minor corrections remain to be finished. We recommend use of released versions to ensure that results can be replicated but between releases you can watch the development at [http://github.com/antonkarl/icecorpus/ Github].
