Linguistic corpora have been annotated by means of SGML-based markup languages for almost 20 years. We can, very roughly, differentiate between three distinct evolutionary stages of markup technologies. (1)Originally, single SGML tree-based document instances were deemed sufficient for the representation of linguistic structures. (2) Linguists began to realize that alternatives and extensions to the traditional model are needed. Formalisms such as, for example, NITE were proposed: the NITE Object Model (NOM) consists of multi-rooted trees. (3) We are now on the threshold of the third evolutionary stage: even NITE's very flexible approach is not suited for all linguistic purposes. As some structures, such as these, cannot be modeled by multi-rooted trees, an even more flexible approach is needed in order to provide a generic annotation format that is able to represent genuinely arbitrary linguistic data structures.
Poster des Text+ Partners Leibniz-Institut für Deutsche Sprache Mannheim präsentiert beim Workshop "Wohin damit? Storing and reusing my language data" am 22. Juni 2023 in Mannheim. Das Poster wurde im Kontext der Arbeit des Vereins Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastruktur (NFDI) e.V. verfasst. NFDI wird von der Bundesrepublik Deutschland und den 16 Bundesländern finanziert, und das Konsortium Text+ wird gefördert durch die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) – Projektnummer 460033370. Die Autor:innen bedanken sich für die Förderung sowie Unterstützung. Ein Dank geht außerdem an alle Einrichtungen und Akteur:innen, die sich für den Verein und dessen Ziele engagieren.
Integrated Linguistic Annotation Models and Their Application in the Domain of Antecedent Detection
(2011)
Seamless integration of various, often heterogeneous linguistic resources in terms of their output formats and a combined analysis of the respective annotation layers are crucial tasks for linguistic research. After a decade of concentration on the development of formats to structure single annotations for specific linguistic issues, in the last years a variety of specifications to store multiple annotations over the same primary data has been developed. The paper focuses on the integration of the knowledge resource logical document structure information into a text document to enhance the task of automatic anaphora resolution both for the task of candidate detection and antecedent selection. The paper investigates data structures necessary for knowledge integration and retrieval.

On the Lossless Transformation of Single-File, Multi-Layer Annotations into Multi-Rooted Trees
(2007)
The Generalised Architecture for Sustainability (GENAU) provides a framework for the transformation of single-file, multi-layer annotations into multi-rooted trees. By employing constraints expressed in XCONCUR-CL, this procedure can be performed lossless, i.e., without losing information, especially with regard to the nesting of elements that belong to multiple annotation layers. This article describes how different types of linguistic corpora can be transformed using specialised tools, and how constraint rules can be applied to the resulting multi-rooted trees to add an additional level of validation.
This paper describes the effort of the Institut für Deutsche Sprache (IDS), the central research institution for the German language, connected with Information and Communications Technology (ICT). Use of ICT in a language research institute is twofold. On the one hand, ICT provides basic services for researches to accomplish their daily work. On the other hand, several national and international institutions have a strong interest in ICT. Therefore, ICT can also be seen as an amplifier for language research. The first part of this paper reports on the activates of the IDS in internal and external ICT-related projects and initiatives. The second part describes a general strategy towards an ICT strategy that could be useful both for the IDS and other national language institutes. We think such a general strategy is necessary to create a strong foundation not only for the ICT-related projects, but as a basis for a modem research institute.
This article shows that the TEI tag set for feature structures can be adopted to represent a heterogeneous set of linguistic corpora. The majority of corpora is annotated using markup languages that are based on the Annotation Graph framework, the upcoming Linguistic Annotation Format ISO standard, or according to tag sets defined by or based upon the TEI guidelines. A unified representation comprises the separation of conceptually different annotation layers contained in the original corpus data (e.g. syntax, phonology, and semantics) into multiple XML files. These annotation layers are linked to each other implicitly by the identical textual content of all files. A suitable data structure for the representation of these annotations is a multi-rooted tree that again can be represented by the TEI and ISO tag set for feature structures. The mapping process and representational issues are discussed as well as the advantages and drawbacks associated with the use of the TEI tag set for feature structures as a storage and exchange format for linguistically annotated data.
We describe a general two-stage procedure for re-using a custom corpus for spoken language system development involving a transformation from character-based markup to XML, and DSSSL stylesheet-driven XML markup enhancement with multiple lexical tag trees. The procedure was used to generate a fully tagged corpus; alternatively with greater economy of computing resources, it can be employed as a parametrised ‘tagging on demand’ filter. The implementation will shortly be released as a public resource together with the corpus (German spoken dialogue, about 500k word form tokens) and lexicon (about 75k word form types).
The Leibniz-Institute for the German Language (IDS) was established in Mannheim in 1964. Since then, it has been at the forefront of innovation in German linguistics as a hub for digital language data. This chapter presents various lessons learnt from over five decades of work by the IDS, ranging from the importance of sustainability, through its strong technical base and FAIR principles, to the IDS’ role in national and international cooperation projects and its expertise on legal and ethical issues related to language resources and language technology.
This article introduces the topic of ‘‘Multilingual language resources and interoperability’’. We start with a taxonomy and parameters for classifying language resources. Later we provide examples and issues of interoperatability, and resource architectures to solve such issues. Finally we discuss aspects of linguistic formalisms and interoperability.
An approach to the unification of XML (Extensible Markup Language) documents with identical textual content and concurrent markup in the framework of XML-based multi-layer annotation is introduced. A Prolog program allows the possible relationships between element instances on two annotation layers that share PCDATA to be explored and also the computing of a target node hierarchy for a well-formed, merged XML document. Special attention is paid to identity conflicts between element instances, for which a default solution that takes into account metarelations that hold between element types on the different annotation layers is provided. In addition, rules can be specified by a user to prescribe how identity conflicts should be solved for certain element types.
Das vorliegende Papier fasst den bisherigen Diskussionsstand zur Konzeption eines Organisationsmodells für die institutionelle Verstetigung des Verbundforschungsprojektes TextGrid zusammen und bündelt die bisherigen Arbeitsergebnisse im Arbeitspaket 3 – Strukturelle und organisatorische Nachhaltigkeit. Das hier skizzierte Organisationsmodell basiert auf den in D-Grid und WissGrid erarbeiteten Nachhaltigkeitskonzepten und adaptiert das Konzept der Virtuellen Organisation (VO) für TextGrid. Insgesamt strebt TextGrid eine institutionelle Verstetigung seiner Aktivitäten nach Ende der Projektlaufzeit an und beabsichtigt gemeinsam mit Virtuellen Forschungsumgebungen aus anderen Wissenschaftsdisziplinen Wege und Prozesse etablieren zu können. Am 24./25. Februar 2011 hat TextGrid einen Strategie-Workshop in Berlin ausgerichtet, zu dem sich eine Expertenrunde zur „Nachhaltigkeit von Virtuellen Forschungsumgebungen“ eingefunden hat. Diskutiert werden wird, wie Virtuelle Forschungsumgebungen basierend auf heutigen finanziellen und organisatorischen Strukturen nachhaltig sein können und welche Empfehlungen sich daraus für TextGrid ableiten. Die Diskussionsergebnisse der Expertenrunde werden zusammen mit den Überlegungen in diesem Papier in die Konzeption eines umfassenderen Organisationsmodells einfließen, das die Grundlage für eine Verstetigung von TextGrid bilden wird.
