Abstract As the interest of the NLP community grows to develop several treebanks alsofor languages other than English, we observe efforts towards evaluating theimpact of different annotation strategies used to represent particularlanguages or with reference to particular tasks. This paper contributes to thedebate on the influence of resources used for the training and development onthe performance of parsing systems. It presents a comparative analysis of theresults achieved by three different dependency parsers developed and testedwith respect to two treebanks for the Italian language, namely TUT andISST--TANL, which differ significantly at the level of both corpus compositionand adopted dependency representations.
