Building a foundation of HPSG-based treebank on Bangla language

Now a day, the importance of a large annotated corpus for NLP researchers is widely known. In this paper, we describe an initial phase of developing a linguistically annotated corpus for non-configurational dasiaBanglapsila language. Since, the formalism differs from those posited for configurational languages; several features have been added for constraint based parsing through HPSG-based formalism. We propose an outline of a semi-automated process by applying both case marking approach and some morphological analysis to constraint the parsing of a relatively free word order language for creating a linguistically rich, highly-lexicalized annotated corpus.
