Resource information

These treebanks and parsebanks for Finnish were created by the FinnTreeBank project. The data in FinnTreeBank 1 is based on model sentences in Iso suomen kielioppi (The Large Grammar of Finnish), manually annotated with dependency-syntactic descriptions (see the tagset and the annotation manual). FinnTreeBank 1 was built as a Grammar Definition Corpus and intended as a model for further automatic analysis of Finnish. FinnTreeBank 2 is a small extension to FinnTreeBank 1, and it was manually annotated in the same fashion as the first treebank. FinnTreeBank 3 is a large treebank that was only automatically annotated, using an experimental method. As a result, the annotations in the third treebank are of much lower quality in comparison to the manually annotated treebanks.

The UD version of FinnTreeBank 1 was derived from FinnTreeBank 1 2014 by a scripted mapping of labels and some restructuring in an attempt to conform approximately to the UD Finnish model.
