Error analysis and subsequent modification to the system resulted in over 96 per cent of word tags being correctly assigned automatically. The remaining 3 to ~ per cent were corrected by human post-editors. ~brk is now in progress to devise a suite of programs to provide a constituent analysis of the sentences in the corpus. So far, sample sentences have been automatically assigned phrase and clause tags using a probabilistic system similar to word tagging. It is hoped that the entire corpus will eventually be parsed.</Paragraph> </Section> class="xml-element"></Paper>
