Abstract | This article presents an analysis of experiments with statistical and neural parsing techniques for Urdu, a widely spoken South Asian language. We demonstrate state of the art constituency parsing results for an Urdu treebank. Urdu is a morphologically rich and is characterized by free word order. Language representation (e.g. input type, lemmatization, word clusters), part of speech tag set, phrase labels and the size of a training corpus are crucial for parsing such languages. In this article, probabilistic context-free grammars, data-oriented parsing, and recursive neural network based models have been experimented with several linguistic features which show improvements in the parsing results. Features include syntactic sub-categorization of POS tags, empirically learned horizontal and vertical markovizations and lexical head words. These features enable dependency information for case markers and add phrasal and lexical context to the parse trees. The data-oriented parsing and recursive neural network model give an f-score of 87.1 by considering gold POS tags in the test set, on textual input, they show a performance with f-scores of 83.4 and 84.2, respectively. To overcome the issue of data sparsity due to the morphological richness, lemmatization and unsupervised word clustering have been performed. A treebank should cover most probable word orders of the language so that models can learn various orders accurately. To analyze the order coverage of the treebank and learning capability of different parsers, a test set has been prepared conditioning different word orders. This test set is evaluated with the best performing parsing models and with gold POS tags, f-scores are above 90 and on textual input, the average f-score is 87.6. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
