dep: unspecified dependency

A dependency is labeled as dep when a system is unable to determine a more precise dependency relation between two words. This may be because of a weird grammatical construction, a limitation in software (e.g. the Stanford Dependency conversion), a parser error, or because of an unresolved long distance dependency.

In this example dep is used due the ambiguity of sinalizado between adjective and verb participle.
