How to visualise a dependency tree

Dear all,


I would like to know if a visualisation tool for dependency tree exists.
I am looking for a tool that took in input a sentence expressed in CoNLL format and provided as output a file (JPEG, PNG or whatever) or even a frame with the tree graphically represented.

MSR Splat by Microsoft is fine but I cannot provide it a CoNLL sentence. The biggest limitation for me is that I have to use its entire pipeline and this constrained me using it just for English.

Thank a lot.
Michele Filannino.

Re: How to visualise a dependency tree

Dear Michele,
You could use the Guiseppe Attardi's Dga tool. It's pretty easy to use 
and include a set of already configured annotation scheme. All you need to do to include
a new data set is to edit an very simple xml file (POS tagset and functional labels)

Check it out at http://medialab.di.unipi.it/Project/QA/Parser/DgAnnotator/   it works on mac os X,
Linux and windows.

Best,
Djamé Seddah

Re: How to visualise a dependency tree

Hi Michele,

try 'whatswrong' by Sebastian Riedel: http://code.google.com/p/whatswrong/
It reads CoNLL format and you can save the graphs to eps. Moreover, you can visualize differences between files, very useful tool!

Alternatively, you could use LaTeX tikz to draw dependency graphs (if you need it in LaTeX), either by doing it yourself
or by using packages like Daniele's tool: http://danielepighin.net/cms/

Best,
Barbara

Re: How to visualise a dependency tree

Dear all,


I received lots of suggestion most of them privately.
In order to share all the tools with everybody I am going to sum them up in this email.
Thanks a lot to everybody.

Best wishes,
Michele Filannino.

Sorry to chime in a bit late, brat is currently used by at least one
external project to annotate dependencies and can consequently also be
used for visualisation.

Dependency syntax example on the brat case-studies page:

    http://brat.nlplab.org/case-studies.html#dependency_syntax

A PNG image generated from visualisation of a full-document with
dependency annotations (big):

    http://brat.nlplab.org/case-studies/swedish_talbanken05_train.conll-doc-880-full.png

Conversion tools from CoNLL-X (and a few others if my memory serves me
right) can be found in the brat tools directory.

As a side-note, "What's Wrong With My NLP?" was actually one of the
biggest inspirations for the brat visualisation style.

Full disclosure, I am one of the authors and maintainers of brat.

Best regards,

There is also DepSVG, a Perl library and a command line client to
convert e.g. the CoNLL format into SVG (for which there are tools for
PDF, PNG, etc. conversion).
