Copyright Matters

The Tycho Brahe Parsed Corpus of Historical Portuguese (TBCHP) is a syntactically annotated corpus. The annotation scheme was designed by Helena Britto and Charlotte Galves at the University of Campinas (IEL-UNICAMP) who were also responsible for its implementation.
The annotation schemeof the TBCHP is strongly inspired on the scheme designed by Anthony Kroch and Ann Taylor for the Penn-Helsinki Parsed Corpus of Middle English.
Philological consulting was provided by Ivo Castro and Ana Maria Martins from the Classical University of Lisbon.
The Institute of Mathematics and Statistics of the University of São Paulo provides support and computational resources.
The part-of-speech tagger initially used for the automatic annotation of the corpus was implemented by Marcelo Finger. The current tagger in use was implemented by Fábio Kepler.
The construction of the TBCHP was part of FAPESP's Project Rhythmic patterns, parameter setting, and language change coordinated by Charlotte Galves.
