Desarrollo de un Analizador Sintáctico Estadístico basado en Dependencias para el Euskera

This paper presents the first steps towards a statistical syntactic analyzer for Basque. The system is based on a syntactically dependency annotated treebank and an adaptation of the deterministic syntactic analyzer of Nivre et al. (2007), which relies on a shift/reduce deterministic analyzer together with a machine learning module that determines which one of 4 analysis options to take, giving a unique syntactic dependency analysis of an input sentence. The results are near to those obtained by similar systems.
