EVALD 1.0
=========

EVALD 1.0 is a software for automatic evaluation of surface coherence (cohesion) in Czech texts
written by native speakers of Czech.

The evaluation part (the server) is implemented in Treex (http://ufal.cz/treex), a highly modular
NLP framework written in the Perl programming language, and uses the Weka toolkit
(http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/ml/weka/) for the final prediction of a coherence mark.
It can be used directly from a command line or as a backend server for a client.
The client part is implemented as a web server, accessible with a web browser.

=================================================
There are three possible ways of using EVALD 1.0:
=================================================

1. as a web demo and RESTful web service hosted at the LINDAT/CLARIN server,
2. locally with both the server and the client running on the same machine (or two machines
   in the same network),
3. from a command line; the Treex scenario . . .
