This contribution presents an XML Schema for annotating a high level narratological category: speech, thought and writing representation (ST&WR). It focusses on two aspects: Firstly, the original Schema is presented as an example for the challenge to encode a narrative feature in a structured and flexible way and secondly, ways of adapting this Schema to TEI are considered, in Order to make it usable for other, TEI-based projects.
This paper describes a rule-based approach to detect direct speech without the help of any quotation markers. As datasets fictional and non-fictional texts were used. Our evaluation shows that the results appear stable throughout different datasets in the fictional domain and are comparable to the results achieved in related work.
Automatic recognition of speech, thought, and writing representation in German narrative texts
(2013)
This article presents the main results of a project, which explored ways to recognize and classify a narrative feature—speech, thought, and writing representation (ST&WR)—automatically, using surface information and methods of computational linguistics. The task was to detect and distinguish four types—direct, free indirect, indirect, and reported ST&WR—in a corpus of manually annotated German narrative texts. Rule-based as well as machine-learning methods were tested and compared. The results were best for recognizing direct ST&WR (best F1 score: 0.87), followed by indirect (0.71), reported (0.58), and finally free indirect ST&WR (0.40). The rule-based approach worked best for ST&WR types with clear patterns, like indirect and marked direct ST&WR, and often gave the most accurate results. Machine learning was most successful for types without clear indicators, like free indirect ST&WR, and proved more stable. When looking at the percentage of ST&WR in a text, the results of machine-learning methods always correlated best with the results of manual annotation. Creating a union or intersection of the results of the two approaches did not lead to striking improvements. A stricter definition of ST&WR, which excluded borderline cases, made the task harder and led to worse results for both approaches.
Bericht von der Dritten Internationalen Konferenz „Grammatik und Korpora“, Mannheim, 22. - 24.9.2009

This contribution presents the newest version of our ’Wortverbindungsfelder’ (fields of multi-word expressions), an experimental lexicographic resource that focusses on aspects of MWEs that are rarely addressed in traditional descriptions: Contexts, patterns and interrelations. The MWE fields use data from a very large corpus of written German (over 6 billion word forms) and are created in a strictly corpus-based way. In addition to traditional lexicographic descriptions, they include quantitative corpus data which is structured in new ways in order to show the usage specifics. This way of looking at MWEs gives insight in the structure of language and is especially interesting for foreign language learners.
Corpus REDEWIEDERGABE
(2020)
This article presents the corpus REDEWIEDERGABE, a German-language historical corpus with detailed annotations for speech, thought and writing representation (ST&WR). With approximately 490,000 tokens, it is the largest resource of its kind. It can be used to answer literary and linguistic research questions and serve as training material for machine learning. This paper describes the composition of the corpus and the annotation structure, discusses some methodological decisions and gives basic statistics about the forms of ST&WR found in this corpus.
We present a corpus-driven approach to the study of multi-word expressions, which constitute a significant part of. As a data basis, we use collocation profiles computed from DeReKo (Deutsches Referenzkorpus), the largest available collection of written German which has approximately two billion word tokens and is located at the Institute for the German Language (IDS). We employ a strongly usage-based approach to multi-word expressions, which we think of as conventionalised patterns in language use that manifest themselves in recurrent syntagmatic patterns of words. They are defined by their distinct function in language. To find multi-word expressions, we allow ourselves to be guided by corpus data and statistical evidence as much as possible, making interpretative steps carefully and in a monitored fashion. We develop a procedure of interpretation that leads us from the evidence of collocation profiles to a collection of recurrent word patterns and finally to multi-word expressions. When building up a collection of multi-word expressions in this fashion, it becomes clear that the expressions can be defined on different levels of generalisation and are interrelated in various ways. This will be reflected in the documentation and presentation of the findings. We are planning to add annotation in a way that allows grouping the multi-word expressions according to different features and to add links between them to reflect their relationships, thus constructing a network of multi-word expressions.
In diesem Beitrag wird das Redewiedergabe-Korpus (RW-Korpus) vorgestellt, ein historisches Korpus fiktionaler und nicht-fiktionaler Texte, das eine detaillierte manuelle Annotation mit Redewiedergabeformen enthält. Das Korpus entsteht im Rahmen eines laufenden DFG-Projekts und ist noch nicht endgültig abgeschlossen, jedoch ist für Frühjahr 2019 ein Beta-Release geplant, welches der Forschungsgemeinschaft zur Verfügung gestellt wird. Das endgültige Release soll im Frühjahr 2020 erfolgen. Das RW-Korpus stellt eine neuartige Ressource für die Redewiedergabe-Forschung dar, die in dieser Detailliertheit für das Deutsche bisher nicht verfügbar ist, und kann sowohl für quantitative linguistische und literaturwissenschaftliche Untersuchungen als auch als Trainingsmaterial für maschinelles Lernen dienen.
Die im Folgenden dargestellte korpusgesteuerte Methode "UWV-Analysemodell" wurde auf der Basis der Forschungen zu usuellen Wortverbindungen (UWV) (vgl. Steyer 2000, 2003, 2004, Steyer/Lauer 2007, Brunner/Steyer 2007, Steyer 2008, Steyer demn.) und zahlreicher, exhaustiver Analysen in den letzten Jahren entwickelt. Ziel war ein empirisches Vorgehensmodell, das es ermöglicht, die Differenziertheit und Vernetztheit von Wortverbindungen auf verschiedenen Abstraktionsebenen ausgehend von Kookkurrenzdaten angemessen darzustellen. Daher ging es in dieser Arbeitsphase nicht darum, usuelle Wortverbindungen des Deutschen möglichst umfassend und in großer Menge zu inventarisieren, sondern die "innere Natur" von Wortverbindungen zwischen Varianz und Invarianz mit unterschiedlichen Graden an lexikalischer Spezifiziertheit sowie ihre wechselseitigen Verbindungen im Detail zu erfassen und zu beschreiben.
