== Participants ==
The following files must be sent to r.martins@undlfoundation.org before 30/09/2012:
+
# <LID>_rca2t1.txt, with the human translation, to the target language, of the sentences of Text 1;
+
# <LID>_ana_dic.txt, with the natural language analysis dictionary corresponding to the translated version of Text 1;
+
# <LID>_gen_dic.txt, with the natural language generation dictionary corresponding to the UNL version of the Text 1.
+
Where <LID> is to be replaced by the three-character code of the ISO 639-2 of the participant's language.<br />
+
The Text 1 and further instructions are available at [[UC-A2|Corpus UC-A2]].
+
 
+
== Workshop (Oct 7-11, 2012) ==
+
During the workshop, the participants are expected to provide the syntactic and semantic modules of the grammar necessary to generate the Text 1 from the Corpus A2 from UNL into their native language, and from their native language into UNL. The grammar is expected to comply with the formalism described at the [[Grammar Specs]], and will be provided through the UNLdev, a web-based integrated development environment for creating and editing dictionary entries and grammar rules for natural language processing. The UNDL Foundation will provide all the training and support necessary for the accomplishment of the tasks.

Post-workshop tasks (to be completed before 15/04/2013)

After the workshop, the participants will be invited to extend their experimental grammars (for both analysis and generation) for the 13 sentences of the first text of the Corpus UC-B1. The grammar should also address the corpora UC-A1 and UC-A2.

Follow-up

The participants who accomplish the post-workshop tasks before April 15th, 2013, will be invited to sign a contract for the development of the grammar modules for their respective languages. This contract will include:

  1. Lemmatization of all word forms appearing in the corpus (USD0.10 per lemma, up to USD1,000.00 total, i.e., 10,000 lemmas)
  2. The development of a grammar for the analysis of the 1,000 most frequent syntactic structures of the source language, extracted from the corpus (USD2,000.00)
  3. The development of a grammar for the generation of the 1,000 most frequent semantic structures of UNL (USD2,000.00)
  4. The participation in the Advanced Level Grammar Workshop in 2013
