Hard Time Parsing Questions: Building a QuestionBank for French
Proceedings of the Tenth International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2016)
Abstract
We present the French Question Bank, a treebank of 2600 questions. We show that classical parsing model performance drop while the inclusion of this data set is highly beneficial without harming the parsing of non-question data. when facing out-of- domain data with strong structural diver- gences. Two thirds being aligned with the QB (Judge et al., 2006) and being freely available, this treebank will prove useful to build robust NLP systems.
