This page describes the obsolete format, called parseme-tsv-input format, of the input corpora provided to VMWE identification tools in the PARSEME shared task on on automatic detection of verbal MWEs. See a sample file for illustration.
The parseme-tsv-iput format is a three-column format derived from the parseme-tsv format in that it is simply limited to the first three columns of the latter:
- The first column contains the rank of the corpus token in the sentence (blank characters are neglected in the token rank count) or a scope of ranks in case of a multiword token (MWT).
- The second column contains the corpus token (blank characters are not represented explicitely) or a multiword token. In the latter case all other columns are empty.
- The third column contains an underscore ('_') if the token is followed by a space or another blanc character (see segmentation rules) in the original file. Otherwise it contains nsp (no space).
