eng/option.dat eng/english.pos eng/english.dep eng/english.par eng/english.par.mbl.mod eng/english_input.tab eng/english_output.tabThe parsing model (
eng/english.par.mbl.mod) has been trained (using
the feature model specified in eng/english.par) on sections
0-22 of the Wall Street Journal section of the Penn Treebank, converted to
dependency trees using the head percolation table of Yamada and Matsumoto (2003)
and the dependency type rules of Nivre (2005). The parser presupposes that the
input is in Malt-TAB
and tagged with the Penn Treebank part-of-speech tagset. (The part-of-speech tagset
can be found in eng/english.pos and the dependency type set in
eng/english.dep.)
engMalt.tar.gz into the directory containing
the executable file maltparser* and unpack it:
> gunzip engMalt.tar.gz
> tar xvf engMalt.tar
This will create a directory eng containing all the engMalt files.
Run the parser with the following command:
> ./maltparser -f eng/option.dat
This parses the test file eng/english_input.tab and stores
the result in eng/english_output.tab. To change input or
output file, simply edit the file eng/option.dat and change
the value of the parameters $INFILE$ and
$OUTFILE$. To change the output format from Malt-TAB
to Malt-XML
(or TIGER-XML), change the value of the parameter $OUTFORMAT$ from
TAB to MALTXML (or TIGERXML).
NB: In principle, any of the options in the option file can be changed,
although we cannot guarantee how the parser behaves. In particular,
changing the value of the parameters $ALGORITHM$,
$FEATURES$ and $LEARNER$ (without retraining
the parsing model accordingly) will
make the parser either crash or produce garbage.
