This paper presents EXMARaLDA, a system for the computer-assisted creation and analysis of spoken
language corpora. The first part contains some general observations about technological and methodological requirements for doing corpus-based pragmatics. The second part explains the systems architecture and gives an overview of its most important software components a transcription editor, a corpus management tool and a corpus query tool. The last part presents some corpora which have been or are currently being compiled with the help of EXMARaLDA.
Spoken language corpora— as used in conversation analytic research, language acquisition studies and dialectology— pose a number of challenges that are rarely addressed by corpus linguistic methodology and technology. This paper starts by giving an overview of the most important methodological issues distinguishing spoken language corpus workfrom the work with written data. It then shows what technological challenges these methodological issues entail and demonstrates how they are dealt with in the architecture and tools of the EXMARaLDA system.
The paper presents the results of a joint effort of a group of multimodality researchers and tool developers to improve the interoperability between several tools used for the annotation and analysis of multimodality. Each of the tools has specific strengths so that a variety of different tools, working on the same data, can be desirable for project work. However this usually requires tedious conversion between formats. We propose a common exchange format for multimodal annotation, based on the annotation graph (AG) formalism, which is supported by import and export routines in the respective tools. In the current version of this format the common denominator information can be reliably exchanged between the tools, and additional information can be stored in a standardized way.
