 L03 FS: Relating trees with Shakti standard format


  Representing Tree in Shakti Standard Format

Example tree:

           PP
         /   \
       /       \
     /           \
  prep            NP
   |           /      \
   |         /          \
  in       /              \
        det                noun
         |                   |
        the                house

- Grouping for the above phrase
    in the house
  can be shown as:

    [[ in  [[ the  house ]] ]]

- If we were to write the categories of each node
  (showing the preterminal nodes as categories of
   the leaf node)

    [[_PP  in_prep  [[_NP the_det  house_noun ]] ]]

- Writing each symbol in a separate line we get
  the Shakti representation of the tree structure

    1		((      	PP
    1.1		in		prep
    1.2		((		NP	
    1.2.1	the		det
    1.2.2	house		noun
    		))		
    		))		

Note the node addresses in the tree below:

               PP (1)
             /   \
           /       \
         /           \
      prep           NP (1.2)
       |           /      \
       |         /          \
    in (1.1)   /              \
            det                noun
             |                   |
            the (1.2.1)        house (1.2.2)
