Using OntoNotes 5.0 to generate coNLL files about neuralcoref

[fancyerii]

it seems some conll scripts can only use python 2.x

@rgabbard Just in case if you may suggest, I found a github repo for the files here
https://github.com/ontonotes/conll-formatted-ontonotes-5.0

Edit:
This repo here gives a wonderful and crisp explanation on how to go about it. Please take a look!

We've also updated the readme file to reflect the changes necessary for this script to run with Python 3.X !

Should anyone else run into the please make sure that you are pointing to the directory 'conll-2012' problem in the future, it looks like the script expects the command-line argument to be exactly the string "conll-2012" and not some alternate relative or absolute path which points to the same directory. As a consequence, you need to run the script from the parent directory of conll-2012 so you can use that string exactly as the argument

@marc88 : yes, my solution worked in my case

Hi @vrian,
Can you try to follow the instructions and scripts from this page: http://cemantix.org/data/ontonotes.html
I think they are more up to date than the shared task ones (I will update the readme).
There is an example on how to use skeleton2conll.sh.

[vrian]

Thanks @thomwolf! I see that's the conll-formatted one. I also tried it but the error is the same. Here is the issue I made about it ontonotes/conll-formatted-ontonotes-5.0#2

Edit: Sorry I forgot to include the link. I'll check the instructions again in a while

[thomwolf]

You have to follow carefully the example given on http://cemantix.org/data/ontonotes.html regarding how to use the scripts.

Replace the path given in the example by the path to the CoNLL data folder on your computer. I don't have the CoNLL data folder setup right now on my system so I can't really help you regarding which exact path you have to put in to get the script working but try a few solutions and you should be able to find the right paths for your setup.

If you have an error again, please post the new error here. I don't think it can be the exact same error as in your first message as the script was updated on that error.

I rechecked the instructions carefully and made some progress. A different error is displayed

Hi, @vrian ,is this problem solved?I have the same problem.

[d5555]

Hi, @vrian , did you solve the problem ?

[marc88]

@rgabbard Did your suggestion solve your problem? Not working for me though.

[nth-attempt]

@vrian you can convert the skeleton2conll.sh file into python 3 with something like

2to3 -w skeleton2conll.sh

Using Python 2 is perhaps the simplest way to solve the issue!
