Description

The UD Kazakh treebank is a combination of text from various sources including Wikipedia, some folk tales, sentences from the UDHR, news and phrasebook sentences. Sentences IDs include partial document identifiers.

The tokenisation in the Kazakh UD treebank follows the principles of Turkic lexica in Apertium. Morphological processing in the Kazakh UD treebank follows the principles of Turkic lexica in Apertium. The treebank was randomly split into training (80%), testing (10%), and development (10%) sets.
