Abstract

Aspects described herein provide various approaches to annotating text samples in order to construct natural language grammars. A text sample may be selected for annotation. A set of annotation candidates may be generated based on the text sample. A classifier may be used to score the set of annotation candidates in order to obtain a set of annotation scores. One of the annotation candidates may be selected as a suggested annotation for the text sample based on the set of annotation scores. A grammar rule may be derived based on the suggested annotation, and a grammar may be configured to include the annotation-derived grammar rule.
