For many resource-poor languages additional annotated data would be beneficial. However, annotation process is tedious and expensive. We propose a metric for selecting the most promising sentences for annotation. Annotating only good sentences saves time and would allow better results to be achieved even with a smaller amount of annotated data. We demonstrate how our method works on the example of parsing Finnish dependency treebank with MaltParser.
