Publications

I apologize that the data and source code in our ACL 2014 and COLING 2014 papers are still not integrated into the newest Zpar version. I tentatively share the resources on this page. I only share the codes of this two papers. If any one has inconveniences for the integration with Zpar, please contact me directly.
