A Demonstration of Ubiquity Parser 2

Apr 24, 2009

Here’s a quick demonstration of Ubiquity Parser 2, aka “the new parser.” I’ll show you how you can use the parser yourself and point out some highlights of the new functionality.

Testing Parser 2 requires the latest Ubiquity source, as explained here. If you find any problems or suggestions, please add a ticket to our trac with the keyword new-parser.

Here are some resources for those of you who would like to read more about different features touched on in this video:

• The design document for the new parser
• Writing commands with semantic roles and a proposed inventory of semantic roles
• Some thoughts on noun-first suggestions and Ubiquity in Japanese

In the near future we’ll also be writing up some documentation on how to take advantage of this new parser in your commands as well.
