Syntactic parsing with NooJ

When parsing a text, NooJ's parsers store all the annotations that they produce in the Text's Annotation Structure (TAS). At each level of the various linguistic analyses and the corresponding parser, a given parser may add annotations to, or remove annotations from, the TAS. As annotations are attached to larger and larger sequences of texts, the TAS represents the hierarchical structure of the sentence and its syntactic constituents. We have added a new module that processes this structured information in order to display the structural tree of sentences. We discuss the difference between a structural tree and a derivation tree, and we show how NooJ's structural trees can represent any type of linguistic units, including discontinuous ones.
