We present a testsuite for POS tagging German web data. Our testsuite provides the original raw text as well as the gold tokenisations and is annotated for parts-of-speech. The testsuite includes a new dataset for German tweets, with a current size of 3,940 tokens. To increase the size of the data, we harmonised the annotations in already existing web corpora, based on the Stuttgart-Tübingen Tag Set. The current version of the corpus has an overall size of 48,344 tokens of web data, around half of it from Twitter. We also present experiments, showing how different experimental setups (training set size, additional out-of-domain training data, self-training) influence the accuracy of the taggers. All resources and models will be made publicly available to the research community.
The workshop presents ATHEN 1 (Annotation and Text Highlighting Environment), an extensible desktop-based annotation environment which supports more than just regular annotation. Besides being a general purpose annotation environment, ATHEN supports indexing and querying support of your data as well as the ability to automatically preprocess your data with Meta information. It is especially suited for those who want to extend existing general purpose annotation tools by implementing their own custom features, which cannot be fulfilled by other available annotation environments. On the according gitlab, we provide online tutorials, which demonstrate the use of specific features of ATHEN
Deutsche Geschichte-Digital: Ergebnisse der TEI-Konvertierung und Integration in Pilotprojekten

We address the detection of abusive words. The task is to identify such words among a set of negative polar expressions. We propose novel features employing information from both corpora and lexical resources. These features are calibrated on a small manually annotated base lexicon which we use to produce a large lexicon. We show that the word-level information we learn cannot be equally derived from a large dataset of annotated microposts. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our (domain-independent) lexicon in the crossdomain detection of abusive microposts.
This presentation introduces a new collaborative project: the International Comparable Corpus (ICC) (https://korpus.cz/icc), to be compiled from European national, standard(ised) languages, using the protocols for text categories and their quantities of texts in the International Corpus of English (ICE).
The paper at hand discusses productivity in German compound formation – as a case of morphological variation – from a lexeme-based synchronic perspective. In particular, we focus on groups of compounds with semantically closely related head words, e.g., compounds denoting colors.
Our approach is characterized by a qualitative as well as a quantitative perspective on productivity. Taking the properties of the head lexeme as a starting point and applying corpus-based statistical methods, we try to gain new insights into compound formation, especially into potential factors which govern their productivity. In a first step, we determine the productivity of compounds on the basis of current productivity measures and data from a large corpus of German. In a second step, we try to systematically explain observable differences in productivity.
The approach presented here is one of the first attempts to apply the concept of productivity, which has been predominantly used in the domain of derivation, to compounding. Since compounding is a dominant factor for the expansion of the German lexicon, we assume that our investigation also sheds an important light on the dynamics of the lexicon.
New exceptions for Text and Data Mining and their possible impact on the CLARIN infrastructure
(2018)
The proposed paper discusses new exceptions for Text and Data Mining that have recently been adopted in some EU Member States, and probably will soon be adopted also at the EU level. These exceptions are of great significance for language scientists, as they exempt those who compile corpora from the obligation to obtain authorisation from rightholders. However, corpora compiled on the basis of such exceptions cannot be freely shared, which in a long run may have serious consequences for Open Science and the functioning of research infrastructure such as CLARIN ERIC.
Projektvorstellung – Redewiedergabe. Eine literatur- und sprachwissenschaftliche Korpusanalyse
(2018)
Das laufende DFG-Projekt „Redewiedergabe“ stellt einen Anwendungsfall quantitativer Sprach-und Literaturwissenschaft dar und beschäftigt sich mit dem Phänomen „Redewiedergabe“ auf der Grundlage großer Datenmengen. Zu diesem Zweck wird zum einen ein Korpus manuell mit Redewiedergabeformen annotiert, zum anderen werden Verfahren zur automatischen Erkennung des Phänomens entwickelt. Ziel ist es, Forschungsfragen nach der Entwicklung von Redewiedergabe vor allem im 19. Jahrhundert zu beantworten.
This paper analyses reply relations in computer-mediated communication (CMC), which occur between post units in CMC interactions and which describe references between posts. We take a look at existing practices in the description and annotation of such relations in chat, wiki talk, and blog corpora. We distinguish technical reply structures, indentation structures, and interpretative reply relations, which include reply relations induced by linguistic markers. We sort out the different levels of description and annotation that are involved and propose a solution for their combined representation within the TEI annotation framework.
Both for psychology and linguistics, emotion concepts are a continuing challenge for analysis in several respects. In this contribution, we take up the language of emotion as an object of study from several angles. First, we consider how frame semantic analyses of this domain by the FrameNet project have been developing over time, due to theory-internal as well as application-oriented goals, towards ever more fine-grained distinctions and greater within-frame consistency. Second, we compare how FrameNet’s linguistically oriented analysis of lexical items in the emotion domain compares to the analysis by domain experts of the experiences that give rise (directly or indirectly) to the lexical items. And finally, we consider to what extent frame semantic analysis can capture phenomena such as connotation and inference about attitudes, which are important in the field of sentiment analysis and opinion mining, even if they do not involve the direct evocation of emotion.
This abstract discusses the possibility to adopt a CLARIN Data Protection Code of Conduct pursuant art. 40 of the General Data Protection Regulation. Such a code of conduct would have important benefits for the entire language research community. The final section of this abstract proposes a roadmap to the CLARIN Data Protection Code of Conduct, listing various stages of its drafting and approval procedures.
