Für die spezifischen Bedürfnisse der Schreibbeobachtung wurde das Orthografische Kernkorpus (OKK) als virtuelles Korpus in DeReKo entwickelt. Mit derzeit rund 14 Mrd. Token deckt es den Schriftsprachgebrauch in den deutschsprachigen Ländern im Zeitraum von 1995 bis in die Gegenwart ab. Der Zugriff über die Korpusanalyseplattform KorAP erlaubt nicht nur die Nutzung verschiedener Annotationen, sondern über die API-Schnittstellen auch die Einbindung in diverse Auswertungsumgebungen wie RStudio über den RKorAPClient und macht es so für zahlreiche Analyse- und Visualisierungsmöglichkeiten zugänglich.
The International Comparable Corpus (ICC) (Kirk/Čermáková 2017; Čermáková et al. 2021) is an open initiative which aims to improve the empirical basis for contrastive linguistics by compiling comparable corpora for many languages and making them as freely available as possible as well as providing tools with which they can easily be queried and analysed. In this contribution we present the first release of written language parts of the ICC which includes corpora for Chinese, Czech, English, German, Irish (partly), and Norwegian. Each of the released corpora contains 400k words distributed over 14 different text categories according to the ICC specifications. Our poster covers the design basics of the ICC, its TEI encoding, a demonstration of using the ICC via different query tools, and an outlook on future plans.
Similar to the European Reference Corpus EuReCo (Kupietz et al. 2020), ICC follows the approach of reusing existing linguistic resources wherever possible in order to cover as many languages as possible with realistic effort in as short a time as possible. In contrast to EuReCo, however, comparable corpus pairs are not defined dynamically in the usage phase, but the compositions of the corpora are fixed in the ICC design. The approaches are thus complementary in this respect. The design principles and composition of the ICC are based on those of the International Corpus of English (ICE) (Greenbaum (ed.) 1996), with the deviation that the ICC includes the additional text category blog post and excludes spoken legal texts (see Čermáková et al. 2021 for details). ICC’s fixed-design approach has the advantage that all single-language corpora in the ICC have the same composition with respect to the selected text types and that this guarantees that the selected broad spectrum of potential influencing variables for linguistic variation is always represented. The disadvantage, however, is that this can only be achieved for quite small corpora and that the generalisability of comparative findings based on the ICC corpora will often need to be checked on larger monolingual corpora or translation corpora (Čermáková/Ebeling/Oksefjell Ebeling forthcoming). Arguing that such issues with comparability and representativeness are inevitable, in one way or the other, and need to be dealt with, our poster will discuss and exemplify the text selections in more detail.
This paper presents an extended annotation and analysis of interpretative reply relations focusing on a comparison of reply relation types and targets between conflictual pages and neutral pages of German Wikipedia (WP) talk pages. We briefly present the different categories identified for interpretative reply relations to analyze the relationship between WP postings as well as linguistic cues for each category. We investigate referencing strategies of WP authors in discussion page postings, illustrated by means of reply relation types and targets taking into account the degree of disagreement displayed on a WP talk page. We provide richly annotated data that can be used for further analyses such as the identification of interactional relations on higher levels, or for training tasks in machine learning algorithms.
Der Beitrag betrachtet das Deutsche Referenzkorpus DeReKo in Bezug auf Strategien für seinen Ausbau, den Zugriff über die Korpusanalyseplattform KorAP und seine Einbettung in Forschungsinfrastrukturen und in die deutschsprachige und europäische Korpuslandschaft. Ausgehend von dieser Bestandsaufnahme werden Perspektiven zu seiner Weiterentwicklung aufgezeigt. Zu den Zukunftsvisionen gehören die Verteilung von Korpussressourcen und die Konstruktion multilingualer vergleichbarer Korpora anhand der Bestände der National- und Referenzkorpora, eine Plattform zur Abgabe und Aufbereitung von Sprachspenden als eine Anwendung von Citizen Science sowie eine Komponente zur automatischen Identifikation von übersetzten bzw. maschinenverfassten Texten.
In this article, we examine the current situation of data dissemination and provision for CMC corpora. By that we aim to give a guiding grid for future projects that will improve the transparency and replicability of research results as well as the reusability of the created resources. Based on the FAIR guiding principles for research data management, we evaluate the 20 European CMC corpora listed in the CLARIN CMC Resource family, individuate successful strategies among the existing corpora and establish best practices for future projects. We give an overview of existing approaches to data referencing, dissemination and provision in European CMC corpora, and discuss the methods, formats and strategies used. Furthermore, we discuss the need for community standards and offer recommendations for best practices when creating a new CMC corpus.
Das Deutsche Referenzkorpus DeReKo dient als eine empirische Grundlage für die germanistische Linguistik. In diesem Beitrag geben wir einen Überblick über Grundlagen und Neuigkeiten zu DeReKo und seine Verwendungsmöglichkeiten sowie einen Einblick in seine strategische Gesamtkonzeption, die zum Ziel hat, DeReKo trotz begrenzter Ressourcen für einerseits möglichst viele und andererseits auch für innovative und anspruchsvolle Anwendungen nutzbar zu machen. Insbesondere erläutern wir dabei Strategien zur Aufbereitung sehr großer Korpora mit notwendigerweise heuristischen Verfahren und Herausforderungen, die sich auf dem Weg zur linguistischen Erschließung solcher Korpora stellen.
In this Paper, we describe a schema and models which have been developed for the representation of corpora of computer-mediated communicatin (CMC corpora) using the representation framework provided by the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). We characterise CMC discourse as dialogic, sequentially organised interchange between humans and point out that many features of CMC are not adequately handled by current corpus encoding schemas and tools. We formulate desiderata for a representation of CMC in encoding schemes and argue why the TEI is a suitable framework for the encoding of CMC corpora. We propose a model of basic CMC units (utterances, posts, and nonverbal activities) and the macro- and micro-level structures of interactions in CMC environments. Based on these models, we introduce CMC-core, a TEI customisation for the encoding of CMC corpora, which defines CMC-specific encoding features on the four levels of elements, model classes, attribute classes, and modules of the TEI infrastructure. The description of our customisation is illustrated by encoding examples from corpora by researchers of the TEI SIG CMC, representing a variety of CMC genres, i.e. chat, wiki talk, twitter, blog, and Second Life interactions. The material described, i.e. schemata, encoding examples, and documentation, is available from the of the TEI CMC SIG Wiki and will accompany a feature request to the TEI council in late 2019.
When comparing different tools in the field of natural language processing (NLP), the quality of their results usually has first priority. This is also true for tokenization. In the context of large and diverse corpora for linguistic research purposes, however, other criteria also play a role – not least sufficient speed to process the data in an acceptable amount of time. In this paper we evaluate several state of the art tokenization tools for German – including our own – with regard to theses criteria. We conclude that while not all tools are applicable in this setting, no compromises regarding quality need to be made.
