UNL tools are programming software developed to assist linguists in producing UNL resources (such as dictionaries and grammars). They differ from UNL applications in that they are not tailored to non-specialists and require expertise in UNL.

Contents

NLizers

NL-izers (formerly known as deconverters) are NLization tools, i.e., tools for producing natural language texts out of UNL documents.

  • EUGENE (dEep-to-sUrface GENErator) [freeware] [by UNDL Foundation]
UNDL Foundation open-source NL-izer
  • DeCo [shareware] [by UNL Tokyo]
UNL Centre's official deconverter engine

UNLizers

UNL-izers (formerly known as enconverters) are UNLization tools, i.e., tools for producing UNL documents out of natural language texts.

  • IAN (Interactive ANalyzer) [freeware] [by UNDL Foundation]
UNDL Foundation open-source interactive UNLizer
  • SEAN (Shallow Enhanced ANalyzer) [freeware] [by UNDL Foundation]
UNDL Foundation open-source fully-automatic UNLizer
UNDL Foundation open-source fully-manual UNLizer
  • EnCo [shareware] [by UNL Tokyo]
UNL Centre's official enconverter engine
  • UP (Universal Parser) [shareware] [by UNL Tokyo]
Customized version of Enco for UNL Annotation

Comparison of UNLization tools

IDEs

IDE (Integrated Development Environment) tools are used for producing language resources (dictionaries and grammars) for UNL.

  • UNLarium [freeware] [by UNDL Foundation]
A web-based database management system where registered users are able to create, to edit and to export dictionary entries and grammar rules according to the UNDL Foundation standards for language engineering.
  • UNLdev [freeware] [by UNDL Foundation]
A wrapper application for developing various UNL tools and applications
  • UNL-IDE [shareware] [by ISUAC/Bibliotheca Alexandrina]
Tool used to view the UNL semantic network, search the UNL documents, write rules, check their syntax, debug, watch the EnCo, DeCo and Universal Parser outputs for the given rules and dictionary and annotate natural language texts

Proofing Tools

Profing tools are used for checking the spelling and syntactic consistency of UNL documents

UNL Centre's official spell and grammar checker for UNL documents

Dictionary Tools

Dictionary tools are used for producing UNL lexical resources

UNL Centre's official dictionary compiler
  • UW Gate [shareware] [by UNL Tokyo]
Tool to search and view UWs and corresponding words of natural languages
Tool to modify data of UWs and/or corresponding words of natural languages

Other

UNL Proxy Server package
