VMWE identification with models trained on GUD (a UDv.2 treebank of Standard Modern Greek)

AbstractUD_Greek-GUD (GUD) is the most recent Universal Dependencies (UD) treebank for Standard Modern Greek (SMG) and the first SMG UD treebank to annotate Verbal Multiword Expressions (VMWEs). GUD contains material from fiction texts and various sites that use colloquial SMG. We describe the special annotation decisions we implemented with GUD, the pipeline we developed to facilitate the active annotation of new material, and we report on the method we designed to evaluate the performance of models trained on GUD as regards VMWE identification tasks.
