ANNIS : a linguistic database for exploring information structure

In this paper, we discuss the design and implementation of our first version
of the database "ANNIS" ("ANNotation of Information Structure").
For research based on empirical data, ANNIS provides a uniform environment
for storing this data together with its linguistic annotations.
A central database promotes standardized annotation, which facilitates
interpretation and comparison of the data. ANNIS is used through a
standard web browser and offers tier-based visualization of data and
annotations, as well as search facilities that allow for cross-level and
cross-sentential queries. The paper motivates the design of the system,
characterizes its user interface, and provides an initial technical evaluation
of ANNIS with respect to data size and query processing.
