dpo3 : Dependency Parsing, Order 3

The dpo3 package provides an implementation of the third-order projective dependency parsing algorithms presented by Koo and Collins (2010). A more detailed description can also be found in Koo (2010). The implementation is written in C/C++, and the source is freely distributed under the GNU GPL v3.0.

The implementation has been applied in a GCC + GNU/Linux + x86-64 environment. The level to which the code is portable is not known at this time and was not a concern during the development, though this is something I am concerned about for the future. Bug reports and inquiries may be sent to maestro@csail.mit.edu, but no guarantees are offered regarding service.

Those wishing to reimplement the parsing experiments in the aforementioned papers should contact me in order to obtain the formatted data I used in those experiments. As the datasets in question are licensed, I won't be posting them here; however, I will be happy to send them to you provided that you or your institution also holds licenses for the data. Eventually I may prepare a set of scripts that allow you to create the datasets from the original formatting.
