Der Band leistet eine theoretisch begründete und empirisch validierte Entwicklung einer automatisierten Wortartenannotation (Part-of-Speech-Tagging) für Transkripte spontansprachlicher Daten des Forschungs- und Lehrkorpus Gesprochenes Deutsch (FOLK), das über die Datenbank für Gesprochenes Deutsch der Forschungsgemeinschaft öffentlich zugänglich ist. Dabei setzt er zwei Schwerpunkte: erstens die theoretische Aufarbeitung von Unterschieden von Transkripten gesprochener Sprache zu schriftsprachlichen Daten in Hinblick auf die Entwicklung eines Tagsets für das gesprochene Deutsch; zweitens die Darstellung der empirischen Arbeitsschritte zur Erstellung des automatisierten Part-of-Speech-Taggings, d. h. die Implementierung und Evaluierung für die Annotation des FOLK-Korpus. Der Band ist eine kritische Reflexion der Wortartentheorien im Spannungsfeld zwischen Theorie und datengeleiteter Arbeit. Er gibt Einblicke über die Korpusaufbereitung von Transkripten gesprochener Sprache und stellt diese in Bezug zu Theorien über die Eigenheiten gesprochener Sprache.
In this paper, we present a GOLD standard of part-of-speech tagged transcripts of spoken German. The GOLD standard data consists of four annotation layers – transcription (modified orthography), normalization (standard orthography), lemmatization and POS tags – all of which have undergone careful manual quality control. It comes with guidelines for the manual POS annotation of transcripts of German spoken data and an extended version of the STTS (Stuttgart Tübingen Tagset) which accounts for phenomena typically found in spontaneous spoken German. The GOLD standard was developed on the basis of the Research and Teaching Corpus of Spoken German, FOLK, and is, to our knowledge, the first such dataset based on a wide variety of spontaneous and authentic interaction types. It can be used as a basis for further development of language technology and corpus linguistic applications for German spoken language.
This contribution presents the background, design and results of a study of users of three oral corpus platforms in Germany. Roughly 5.000 registered users of the Database for Spoken German (DGD), the GeWiss corpus and the corpora of the Hamburg Centre for Language Corpora (HZSK) were asked to participate in a user survey. This quantitative approach was complemented by qualitative interviews with selected users. We briefly introduce the corpus resources involved in the study in section 2. Section 3 describes the methods employed in the user studies. Section 4 summarizes results of the studies focusing on selected key topics. Section 5 attempts a generalization of these results to larger contexts.
Part-of-speech tagging (POS-tagging) of spoken data requires different means of annotation than POS-tagging of written and edited texts. In order to capture the features of German spoken language, a distinct tagset is needed to respond to the kinds of elements which only occur in speech. In order to create such a coherent tagset the most prominent phenomena of spoken language need to be analyzed, especially with respect to how they differ from written language. First evaluations have shown that the most prominent cause (over 50%) of errors in the existing automatized POS-tagging of transcripts of spoken German with the Stuttgart Tübingen Tagset (STTS) and the treetagger was the inaccurate interpretation of speech particles. One reason for this is that this class of words is virtually absent from the current STTS. This paper proposes a recategorization of the STTS in the field of speech particles based on distributional factors rather than semantics. The ultimate aim is to create a comprehensive reference corpus of spoken German data for the global research community. It is imperative that all phenomena are reliably recorded in future part-of-speech tag labels.
