Contents |
This is the task ideas page for Google Code-in, here you can find ideas on interesting tasks that will improve your knowledge of Apertium and help you get into the world of open-source development.
The people column lists people who you should get in contact with to request further information. All tasks are 2 hours maximum estimated amount of time that would be spent on the task by an experienced developer, however:
- this does not include time taken to install / set up apertium.
- this is the time expected to take by an experienced developer, you may find that you spend more time on the task because of the learning curve.
Categories:
- code: Tasks related to writing or refactoring code
- documentation: Tasks related to creating/editing documents and helping others learn more
- research: Tasks related to community management, outreach/marketting, or studying problems and recommending solutions
- quality: Tasks related to testing and ensuring code is of high quality.
- interface: Tasks related to user experience research or user interface design and interaction
You can find descriptions of some of the mentors here: List_of_Apertium_mentors.
Task ideas
type | title | description | tags | mentors | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
code | Fix a memory leak in matxin-transfer | hargle bargle | c++ | Fran | |||
research | See if you can precompile xpath expressions or xslt stylesheets | hargle bargle | parsing | Fran | |||
research | Review literature on linearisation of dependency trees | hargle bargle | parsing | Fran | |||
Manually annotate/Tag text in Apertium format | Fran | ||||||
code | Convert Chukchi Nouns to HFST/lexc | Fran | |||||
code | Convert Chukchi Numerals to HFST/lexc | Fran | |||||
code | Convert Chukchi Adjectives to HFST/lexc | Fran | |||||
Make a (web) viewer for parallel treebanks | (also for viewing diff annotation for same sentence) | ||||||
Write a script to convert a UD treebank | for a given language to a format suitable for training the perceptron tagger | ||||||
Train the perceptron tagger for a language | Perceptron is | Fran | |||||
Design an annotation tool for disambiguation | like c.f. webanno, corpus.mari-language.org, brat | ||||||
Design an annotation tool for adding dependencies | Like c.f. | ||||||
Train lexical selection rules description= from a large parallel corpus for a language pair | Fran | ||||||
Document how to set up the experiments for weighted transfer rules | Fran | ||||||
convert UD treebank to apertium tags, use unigram tagger | (see #apertium logs 2016-06-22) | ||||||
Write a script to extract sentences from CoNLL-U | where they have the same tokenisation as Apertium. | Fran | |||||
convert [1] to apertium-style documentation | |||||||
code | Implement `lt-print --strings` lt-print -s | c++ | Fran, wei2912 | ||||
code | Implement lt-expand -n | Implement an algorithm that prints out a transducer but only follows n cycles. | c++ | Fran, wei2912 | |||
code | in-browser globe with apertium languages as points | Use d3 globe to make an apertium language/pair viewer (like pairviewer), maybe based on this or this or this. This file contains coordinates of Apertium languages. | js,html,maps | Firespeaker | |||
make a thing to detect contexts where a path in a compiled transducer begins with a whitespacedesciption | |||||||
make the lt-comp compiler print a warning when a path begins with a whitespace. | Common mistake in dix files is to have some bad whitespace at places, this needs to be aqutomatically detected in the compilation tool and warning to user issued. | ||||||
apertium-mar-hin: make the TL morph for any part of speech less daft | Some morph in Marathi or Hindi are currently daft. | morphology | vin-ivar | ||||
add indic scripts/formal latin transliterations | Translitteration is a ways to write stuffs in different scripts. Currently some indic scrpts are done only to some WX transliterator | python | vin-ivar | ||||
code | apertium-hin: more consistency with apertium-mar for verbs | Verbs in Marath and Hindi are incosistently. | morphology | vin-ivar | |||
code | apertium-mar: replace cases with postpositions | Marathi cases are postpositions | morphology | vin-ivar | |||
code | apertium-mar: fix modals and quasi-modals | Modals in Marathi need fixing | morphology | vin-ivar | |||
code | refactor x file in apy | Reorganise apy code to be more readable, maintainable and so forth. | Putti | ||||
documentation | add docstrings to x file in apy | docstrings are a way to document python code that can be generated into documentation on the web or in python. See following PEPs in python.org | Putti, vin-ivar | ||||
code, quality | write 10 unit tests for apy | Putti, (sushain, unhammer ?) | |||||
code | add 1 transfer rule | Transfer rules are parts of translation process dealing with re-arranging, adding and deleting words. See also Short introduction to transfer | Fran, vin-ivar | ||||
code | add 50 entries to a bidix | Bilingual dictionary (bidix) contains word-to-word translations between languages, e.g. cat-chat or cat-Katze in English to French or German respectively. Add 50 of such word-translations to languages you know. | Fran, vin-ivar | ||||
code | write 10 lexical selection rules | Write 10 lexical selection rules for a pair already set up with lexical selection | Fran, vin-ivar | ||||
code | write 10 constraint grammar rules | Constraint grammar is a rule-based approach of selecting linguistic readings from ambiguous cases, to improve translation quality etc. See introduction cG here: | Fran, vin-ivar | ||||
research, documentation | Document resources for a language | Document resources for a language without resources already documented on the wiki | Firespeaker, vin-ivar | ||||
research, documentation | Write a contrastive grammar | Document 6 differences between two (preferably related) languages and where they would need to be addressed (morph analysis, transfer, etc) | vin-ivar, (fran? firespeaker?) | ||||
design | apertium-hun: match existing apertium-hun paradigms with morphdb.hu | Morphdb.hu is another implementation of Hungarian morphology, that has a large lexicon. In order to convert it to apertium format, the classification of the words needs to be mapped to one used in apertium. | hun,dix | Flammie | |||
code | apertium-hun: convert hunmorph.db into apertium | one of: See prerequisite task above. | Flammie | ||||
code | apertium-fin-eng: go through lexicon for potential rubbish words) | Apertium's Finnish–English dictionary has been converted from projects, like Finnwordnet, that hae a lot of pairs unsuitable for MT, find and delete them from the file. | fin,dix | Flammie | |||
