- A. Alvarez, Lori S. Levin, R. Frederking, Erik Peterson, Jeff Good. 2005. Semi-Automated Elicitation Corpus Generation. Abstract: In this document we will describe a semi-automated process for creating elicitation corpora. An elicitation corpus is translated by a bilingual consultant in order to produce high quality word aligned sentence pairs. The corpus sentences are automatically generated from detailed feature structures using the GenKit generation program. Feature structures themselves are automatically generated from information that is provided by a linguist using our corpus specification software. This helps us to build small, flexible corpora for testing and development of machine translation systems.
