Ideas for Google Summer of Code/UD Annotatrix

UD Annotatrix is a tool for annotating Universal Dependencies. The objective of this project is to extend it in useful ways:

Tasks

• General: Relates to the whole codebase
• Interface: Relates to the front end graph drawing and buttons/tabs etc. (HTML, CSS, JS)
• Backend: The JS that does format parsing and validation (JS)
• Server: The code that runs the server (Python)

Task	Days (approx.)		General	Interface	Backend	Server
Comprehensive testing framework	5		x
Interface for disambiguation (in CG mode)	1			x
Integrate d3's graphing library and TreeX	5			x
Support for ambiguous sentences	5			x	x
Full keyboard support	2			x
Support for enhanced dependencies	5			x	x
Integration with GitHub accounts	2				x
Collaborative editting support	5			x	x	x
Search functionality	5			x	x	x
Full logging support	2					x
Automatic punctuation support	1				x
Active learning	5			x	x
Automatic validation	4			x	x	x(?)
Morphology filling from API	4				x	x(?)
Decent support for labels (like GitHub)	2			x	x

Stuffs

1. Comprehensive testing framework
   • Find out how the code works, and add tests for functionalities (interface and backend).
2. Integrate d3's graphing library and TreeX
   • Better graph/edge layouts
3. Full keyboard support
4. Collaborative editting support

Coding challenge

• Download UD Annotatrix
• Fix one issue in the server version
• Fix one issue in the client
• Annotate 20 trees
• Proof of concept for graphing with d3 (hard-coded values)
