You can serialize to the DMRS-JSON format instead of DMRX. JSON doesn't have the same attribute name constraints as XML. The process is slightly different. Here is MRS->DMRS-JSON conversion:</div> <div><br> </div> <div> import json</div> <div> from delphin.mrs import simplemrs</div> <div> from delphin.mrs.xmrs import Dmrs</div> <div> <div> print(</div> <div> json.dumps(</div> <div> Dmrs.from_xmrs(simplemrs.load_one(source)).to_dict()</div> <div> )</div> <div> )</div> </div> <div><br> </div> <div>(the Dmrs.from_xmrs(...) bit is just for Python2 compatibility. In Python3, you can just do: Dmrs.to_dict(simplemrs.loads_one(source)))</div> <div><br> </div> <div>DMRS-JSON -> MRS conversion is similar:</div> <div><br> </div> <div> ...</div> <div> <div> print(</div> <div> simplemrs.dumps_one(</div> <div> Dmrs.from_dict(json.load(source))</div> <div> )</div> <div> ) </div> </div> <div><br> </div> <div>These methods require PyDelphin v0.6.0 (the latest release).</div> </div> <div class="gmail_extra"><br> <div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Feb 21, 2017 at 11:35 AM, Michael Wayne Goodman <span dir="ltr"><<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:goodmami@uw.edu" target="_blank">goodmami@uw.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> <div dir="ltr">Hi Megha, <div><br> </div> <div>(I've re-CC'd the developers list so they can benefit or contribute; please include them in follow-up replies)<br> <div><br> </div> <div>Thanks for clarifying.</div> </div> <div><br> </div> <div>When you do MRS -> DMRS conversion in your script, it is essentially this:</div> <div><br> </div> <div> print(dmrx.dumps(simplemrs.<wbr>load(source)))</div> <div><br> </div> <div>This loads the simplemrs-encoded source (e.g. a file or sys.stdin; or use simplemrs.loads() for a string argument) into the internal *MRS representation, then the dmrx codec serializes the internal representation to DMRX.

The variable properties prefixed by "--" (e.g. "--PSV") cause errors when loading a DMRS. This is because the hyphen is not a valid initial character in an XML attribute name (<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#NT-NameStartChar" target="_blank">https://www.w3.org/TR/REC-<wbr>xml/#NT-NameStartChar</a>). It is Python's XML parser, and not PyDelphin, that is failing to load the DMRX instance. I suggest doing one of the following:</div> <div><br> </div> <div> 1. Change the attribute names in the GG grammar</div> <div><br> </div> <div> 2. In your conversion script, find and replace these attributes on the MRS before converting to DMRS, and change them back in DMRS->MRS conversion. You may use underscores (e.g. "__PSV") as the initial character, according to the XML spec.</div> <div><br> </div> <div>Does this help?</div> </div> <div class="gmail_extra"> <div> <div class="h5"><br> <div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Feb 21, 2017 at 1:13 AM, megha jain <span dir="ltr"><<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:jain11megha@gmail.com" target="_blank">jain11megha@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> <div dir="ltr"> <div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <div>Hello Michael.<br> <br> </div> I know usage of Pydelphin so able to implement via this.<br> <br> </div> I want to know which python code is being used by you to convert German DMRS into German MRS again?<br> <br> </div> So that this MRS can be given ACE to generate corresponding German sentence.<br> <br> </div> I am able to process : German sentence => MRS<br> </div> <wbr> MRS => DMRS<br> </div> <wbr> DMRS => MRS (that is my concern)<br> <br> </div> <div>EXAMPLE :-(A.)
