Ideas for Google Summer of Code/Interface for creating tagged corpora

There is a need in Apertium for most released pairs and the ones to come: better part-of-speech (POS) taggers. In my experience, training supervised taggers has never been a waste of time but all the opposite: at the same time we have quality improvement and we are creating unvaluable linguistic resources such as disambiguated tagged corpora.

Tasks

• Making an interface where you can load a raw text of, say, 30.000 words or (optional) create a corpus or X size for a given language from Wikipedia
• The interface should be able to take a non-disambiguated tagged corpus and be able to disambiguate it manually
• It should also have a user-friendly system for improving the TSX file (refine coarse tags, write rules)
• And, a user-friendly interface to train a supervised tagger
• Also, some way to evaluate performance of a .prob file
• Including a way to incorporate constraint grammar rules would also be nice.
• A way to take into account automatically new multiwords / different tokenisation.
