Research in parser evaluation has led to the creation of dependency resources such as the TiGer Dependency Bank, a semi-automatic conversion of a subset of the TIGER Treebank. We explore the relationship between the TiGerDB representation and a more surface-oriented dependency analysis of German and describe how we mapped and recoded the TiGerDB into a format more closely linked to the original treebank data.
