Tools

UDeasy

Udeasy is an application written in Python 3 whose main goal is to allow the user to easily query a treebank and extract patterns from a treebank in CoNLL-U format. To do this, users are prompted in a series of dialogs to enter relevant information about syntactic nodes, their properties, relationship, and positions. The functions to extract the occurrences from a treebank rely on the udapi Python package. The graphic interface is built using the GUI toolkit wxPython. Due to its ease of use it is a useful tool for the community of linguists who want to use a data-driven approach and for the students who approach dependency treebanks without almost any experience with queries.
