  abstract  = {This paper presents Autobank, a prototype tool for constructing a wide-coverage
	Minimalist Grammar (MG) (Stabler 1997), and semi-automatically converting the
	Penn Treebank (PTB) into a deep Minimalist treebank.  The front end of the tool
	is a graphical user interface which facilitates the rapid development of a seed
	set of MG trees via manual reannotation of PTB preterminals with MG lexical
	categories. The system then extracts various dependency mappings between the
	source and target trees, and uses these in concert with a non-statistical MG
	parser to automatically reannotate the rest of the corpus.  Autobank thus
	enables deep treebank conversions (and subsequent modifications) without the
	need for complex transduction algorithms accompanied by cascades of ad hoc
	rules; instead, the locus of human effort falls directly on the task of grammar
	construction itself.},
