SiR 1.0 is a corpus of Czech articles published on iRozhlas, a news server of a Czech public radio (https://www.irozhlas.cz/). It is a collection of 1 718 articles (42 890 sentences, 614 995 words) with manually annotated attribution of citation phrases and sources. The sources are classified into several classes of named and unnamed sources.
The corpus consists of three parts, depending on the quality of the annotations:
(i) triple-annotated articles: 46 articles (933 sentences, 13 242 words) annotated independently by three annotators and subsequently curated by an arbiter,
(ii) double-annotated articles: 543 articles (12 347 sentences, 180 622 words) annotated independently by two annotators and automatically unified,
and (iii) single-annotated articles: 1 129 articles (29 610 sentences, 421 131 words) annotated each only by a single annotator.
The data were annotated in the Brat tool (https://brat.nlplab.org/) and are distributed in the Brat native format, i.e. each article is represented by the original plain text and a stand-off annotation file.

VALLEX 4.5 provides information on the valency structure (combinatorial potential) of Czech verbs in their particular senses (almost 4 700 verbs in more than 11 080 lexical units, supplemented with more than 290 nouns in more than 350 lexical units forming complex predicates with light verbs). VALLEX 4.5 is an enhanced successor of VALLEX 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0. In addition to the information stored there, VALLEX 4.5 provides a detailed description of reflexive verbs, i.e., verbs with the reflexive "se" or "si" as an obligatory part of their verb lexemes. VALLEX 4.5 covers 1 525 reflexive verbs in 1 545 lexical units (2 501 when aspectual counterparts counted separately). In order to satisfy different needs of different potential users, the lexicon is distributed (i) online in a HTML version (the data allows for an easy and fast navigation through the lexicon) and (ii) in this distribution in a machine-tractable form, so that the VALLEX data can be used in NLP applications.
