In der Bund-Länder-Vereinbarung (BLV) zu Aufbau und Förderung einer Nationalen Forschungsdateninfrastruktur (NFDI) (im Folgenden BLV-NFDI) wird in §1 festgehalten, dass mit der Förderung "eine Etablierung und Fortentwicklung eines übergreifenden Forschungsdatenmanagements" und damit eine "Steigerung der Effizienz des gesamten Wissenschaftssystems verfolgt" wird. In der BLV-NFDI werden dazu sieben Ziele vorgegeben, die eine Verfeinerung dieser Hauptziele darstellen. Dieses White Paper formuliert das gemeinsame Verständnis der beteiligten Konsortien für die sieben in der BLV-NFDI vorgegebenen Ziele. Auf der Grundlage dieses Verständnisses hat die Task Force Evaluation und Reporting Vorschläge gemacht, wie das Erreichen der Ziele erfasst, beschrieben und gemessen werden kann.
This White Paper sets out commonly agreed definitions on activities of consortia within NFDI. It aims to provide a common basis for reporting and reference regarding selected questions of cross-consortial relevance in DFG’s template for the Interim Reports. The questions were prioritised by an NFDI Task Force on Evaluation and Reporting (formerly Task Force Monitoring) as a result of discussing possible answers to the DFG template. In this process the need to agree on a generalizable meaning of terms commonly used in the context of NFDI, and reporting in particular, were identified from cross-consortial perspectives. Questions that showed the highest requirement on clarification are discussed in this White Paper. As NFDI evolves, the Task Force will likely propose further joint approaches for reporting in information infrastructures.
While each of broad relevance, the questions addressed relate to substantially different aspects of consortia’s work. They are thus also structured slightly different.
The ISOcat registry reloaded
(2012)
The linguistics community is building a metadata-based infrastructure for the description of its research data and tools. At its core is the ISOcat registry, a collaborative platform to hold a (to be standardized) set of data categories (i.e., field descriptors). Descriptors have definitions in natural language and little explicit interrelations. With the registry growing to many hundred entries, authored by many, it is becoming increasingly apparent that the rather informal definitions and their glossary-like design make it hard for users to grasp, exploit and manage the registry’s content. In this paper, we take a large subset of the ISOcat term set and reconstruct from it a tree structure following the footsteps of schema.org. Our ontological re-engineering yields a representation that gives users a hierarchical view of linguistic, metadata-related terminology. The new representation adds to the precision of all definitions by making explicit information which is only implicitly given in the ISOcat registry. It also helps uncovering and addressing potential inconsistencies in term definitions as well as gaps and redundancies in the overall ISOcat term set. The new representation can serve as a complement to the existing ISOcat model, providing additional support for authors and users in browsing, (re-)using, maintaining, and further extending the community’s terminological metadata repertoire.
The Component Metadata Infrastructure (CMDI) in a project on sustainable linguistic resources
(2012)
The sustainable archiving of research data for predefined time spans has become increasingly important to researchers and is stipulated by funding organizations with the obligatory task of being observed by researchers. An important aspect in view of such a sustainable archiving of language resources is the creation of metadata, which can be used for describing, finding and citing resources. In the present paper, these aspects are dealt with from the perspectives of two projects: the German project for Sustainability of Linguistic Data at the University of Tubingen (NaLiDa, cf. http://www.sfs.uni-tuebingen.de/nalida) and the Dutch-Flemish HLT Agency hosted at the Institute for Dutch Lexicology (TST-Centrale, cf.http://www.inl.nl/tst-centrale). Both projects unfold their approaches to the creation of components and profiles using the Component Metadata Infrastructure (CMDI) as underlying metadata schema for resource descriptions, highlighting their experiences as well as advantages and disadvantages in using CMDI.
The CLARIN infrastructure as an interoperable language technology platform for SSH and beyond
(2023)
CLARIN is a European Research Infrastructure Consortium developing and providing a federated and interoperable platform to support scientists in the field of the Social Sciences and Humanities in carrying-out language-related research. This contribution provides an overview of the entire infrastructure with a particular focus on tool interoperability, ease of access to research data, tools and services, the importance of sharing knowledge within and across (national) communities, and community building. By taking into account FAIR principles from the very beginning, CLARIN succeeded in becoming a successful example of a research infrastructure that is actively used by its members. The benefits CLARIN members reap from their infrastructure secure a future for their common good that is both sustainable and attractive to partners beyond the original target groups.
In dem auf die Forschungsdaten sprach- und textbasierter Disziplinen ausgerichteten NFDI-Konsortium Text+ spielen Normdaten eine zentrale Rolle für die interoperable Beschreibung und semantische Verknüpfung von verteilten Datenquellen. Insbesondere die Gemeinsame Normdatei (GND) ist ein bedeutender Hub im Zentrum eines im Entstehen begriffenen, domänenübergreifenden Wissensgraphen. Diese Funktion soll im Rahmen von Text+ durch den Aufbau einer GND-Agentur für sprach- und textbasierte Forschungsdaten weiterentwickelt und ausgebaut werden. Ziel ist es, niedrigschwellige, qualitätsgesicherte Beteiligungsmöglichkeiten für Forschende zu schaffen und zugleich den Vernetzungsgrad der GND auch durch Terminologie-Mappings zu erweitern. Spezifische Anforderungen und Nutzungspraktiken werden hierbei anhand der Datendomänen von Text+ exemplifziert.
This paper describes the status of the standardization efforts of a Component Metadata approach for describing Language Resources with metadata. Different linguistic and Language & Technology communities as CLARIN, META-SHARE and NaLiDa use this component approach and see its standardization of as a matter for cooperation that has the possibility to create a large interoperable domain of joint metadata. Starting with an overview of the component metadata approach together with the related semantic interoperability tools and services as the ISOcat data category registry and the relation registry we explain the standardization plan and efforts for component metadata within ISO TC37/SC4. Finally, we present information about uptake and plans of the use of component metadata within the three mentioned linguistic and L&T communities.
Signposts for CLARIN
(2021)
An implementation of CMDI-based signposts and its use is presented in this paper. Arnold, Fisseni et al. (2020) present signposts as a solution to challenges in long-term preservation of corpora. Though applicable to digital resources in general, we focus on corpora, especially those that are continuously extended or subject to modification, e.g., due to legal injunctions, but also may overlap with respect to constituents, and may be subject to migrations to new data formats. We describe the contribution signposts can make to the CLARIN infrastructure, notably virtual collections, and document the design for the CMDI profile.
This contribution summarizes the lessons learned from the organization of a joint conference on text analytics research by the Business, Economic, and Related Data (BERD@NFDI) and Text+ consortia within the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) in Germany. The collaboration aimed to identify common ground and foster interdisciplinary dialogue between scholars in the humanities and in the business domain. The lessons learned include the importance of presenting research questions using textual data to establish common ground, similarities in methodology for processing textual data between the consortia, similarities in research data management, and the need for regular interconsortial discussions on textual analysis methods and data. The collaboration proved valuable for interdisciplinary dialogue within the NFDI, and further collaboration between the consortia is planned.
Als Teil der NFDI vernetzt Text+ ortsverteilt verschiedenste Daten und Dienste für die geisteswissenschaftliche Forschung und stellt sie der wissenschaftlichen Gemeinschaft FAIR zur Verfügung. In diesem Beitrag beschreiben wir die Umsetzung beispielhaft im Bereich der Text+ Datendomäne Sammlungen anhand von Korpora, die in verschiedenen Disziplinen Verwendung finden. Die Infrastruktur ist auf Erweiterbarkeit ausgelegt, so dass auch weitere Ressourcen über Text+ verfügbar gemacht werden können. Enthalten ist auch ein Ausblick auf weitere zu erwartende Entwicklungen. Ein Beitrag zur 9. Tagung des Verbands "Digital Humanities im deutschsprachigen Raum" - DHd 2023 Open Humanities Open Culture.
