Abstract / Description of output

The Tree-to-Tree (t2t) Alignment Pipe is a collection of Python scripts, generating automatically aligned parallel treebanks from multilingual web resources or existing parallel corpora. The pipe contains wrappers for a number of freely available NLP software programs. Once these third party programs have been installed and the system and corpus specific details have been updated, the pipe is designed to generate a parallel treebank with a single program call from a unix command line. We discuss alignment quality on a fully automatically processed parallel corpus.
