Urdu Dependency Parsing and Treebank Development: A Syntactic and Morphological Perspective
Parsing is the process of analyzing a sentence's syntactic structure by breaking it down into its grammatical components. and is critical for various linguistic applications. Urdu is a low-resource, free word-order language and exhibits complex morphology. Literature suggests that dependency parsing is well-suited for such languages. Our approach begins with a basic feature model encompassing word location, head word identification, and dependency relations, followed by a more advanced model integrating part-of-speech (POS) tags and morphological attributes (e.g., suffixes, gender). We manually annotated a corpus of news articles of varying complexity. Using Maltparser and the NivreEager algorithm, we achieved a best-labeled accuracy (LA) of 70% and an unlabeled attachment score (UAS) of 84%, demonstrating the feasibility of dependency parsing for Urdu.

Artificially Evolved Chunks for Morphosyntactic Analysis
We introduce a language-agnostic evolutionary technique for automatically extracting chunks from dependency treebanks. We evaluate these chunks on a number of morphosyntactic tasks, namely POS tagging, morphological feat…
