A constructicon, i.e., a structured inventory of constructions, essentially aims at documenting functions of lexical and grammatical constructions. Among other parameters, so-called constructional collo-profiles, as introduced by Herbst (2018, 2020), are conclusive for determining constructional meanings. They provide information on how relevant individual words are for construction slots, they hint at usage preferences of constructions and serve as a helpful indicator for semantic peculiarities of constructions. However, even though collo-profiles constitute an indispensable component of constructicon entries, they pose major challengers for constructicographers: For a constructicographic enterprise it is not feasible to conduct collostructional analyses for hundreds or even thousands of constructions. In this article, we introduce a procedure based on the large language model BERT that allows to predict collo-profiles without having to extensively annotate instances of constructions in a given corpus. Specifically, by discussing the constructions X macht Y ADJP (‘x makes Y ADJ’, e.g. he drives him crazy) and N1 PREP N1 (e.g., bumper to bumper, constructions over constructions), we show how the developed automated system generates collo-profiles based on a limited number of annotated instances. Finally, we place collo-profiles alongside other dimensions of constructional meanings included in the German Constructicon.
This chapter will present lessons learned from CLARIN-D, the German CLARIN national consortium. Members of the CLARIN-D communities and of the CLARIN-D consortium have been engaged in innovative, data-driven, and community-based research, using language resources and tools in the humanities and neigh-bouring disciplines. We will present different use cases and users’ stories that demonstrate the innovative research potential of large digital corpora and lexical resources for the study of language change and variation, for language documentation, for literary studies, and for the social sciences. We will emphasize the added value of making language resources and tools available in the CLARIN distributed research infrastructure and will discuss legal and ethical issues that need to be addressed in the use of such an infrastructure. Innovative technical solutions for accessing digital materials still under copyright and for data mining such materials will be presented. We will outline the need for close interaction with communities of interest in the areas of curriculum development, data management, and training the next generation of digital humanities scholars. The importance of community-supported standards for encoding language resources and the practice of community-based quality control for digital research data will be presented as a crucial step toward the provisioning of high quality research data. The chapter will conclude with a discussion of impor-tant directions for innovative research and for supporting infrastructure development over the next decade and beyond.
Standards in CLARIN
(2022)
This chapter looks at a fragment of the ongoing work of the CLARIN Standards Committee (CSC) on producing a shared set of recommendations on standards, formats, and related best practices supported by the CLARIN infrastructure and its participating centres. What might at first glance seem to be a straightforward goal has over the years proven to be rather complex, reflecting the robustness and heterogeneity of the emerging distributed digital research infrastructure and the various disciplines and research traditions of the language-based humanities that it serves and represents, and therefore part of the chapter reviews the various initiatives and proposals that strove to produce helpful standards-related guidance. The focus turns next to a subtask initiated in late 2019, its scope narrowed to one of the core activities and responsibilities of CLARIN backbone centres, namely the provision of data deposition services. Centres are obligated to publish their recom-mendations concerning the repertoire of data formats that are best suited for their research profiles. We look at how this requirement has been met by the particular centres and suggest that having centres maintain their information in the Standards Information System (SIS) is the way to improve on the current state of affairs.
Preface
(2022)
CLARIN stands for “Common Language Resources and Technology Infrastructure”. In 2012 CLARIN ERIC was established as a legal entity with the mission to create and maintain a digital infrastructure to support the sharing, use, and sustainability of language data (in written, spoken, or multimodal form) available through repositories from all over Europe, in support of research in the humanities and social sciences and beyond. Since 2016 CLARIN has had the status of Landmark research infrastructure and currently it provides easy and sustainable access to digital language data and also offers advanced tools to discover, explore, exploit, annotate, analyse, or combine such datasets, wherever they are located. This is enabled through a networked federation of centres: language data repositories, service centres, and knowledge centres with single sign-on access for all members of the academic community in all participating countries. In addition, CLARIN offers open access facilities for other interested communities of use, both inside and outside of academia. Tools and data from different centres are interoperable, so that data collections can be combined and tools from different sources can be chained to perform operations at different levels of complexity. The strategic agenda adopted by CLARIN and the activities undertaken are rooted in a strong commitment to the Open Science paradigm and the FAIR data principles. This also enables CLARIN to express its added value for the European Research Area and to act as a key driver of innovation and contributor to the increasing number of industry programmes running on data-driven processes and the digitalization of society at large.
CLARIN, the "Common Language Resources and Technology Infrastructure", has established itself as a major player in the field of research infrastructures for the humanities. This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the organization, its members, its goals and its functioning, as well as of the tools and resources hosted by the infrastructure. The many contributors representing various fields, from computer science to law to psychology, analyse a wide range of topics, such as the technology behind the CLARIN infrastructure, the use of CLARIN resources in diverse research projects, the achievements of selected national CLARIN consortia, and the challenges that CLARIN has faced and will face in the future.
The book will be published in 2022, 10 years after the establishment of CLARIN as a European Research Infrastructure Consortium by the European Commission (Decision 2012/136/EU).
Fragen der Verdatung sind Bestandteil der digitalen Diskursanalyse und keine Vorarbeiten. Die Analyse digital(isiert)er Diskurse setzt im Unterschied zur Auswertung nicht-digital repräsentierter Sprache und Kommunikation notwendig technische Verfahren und Praktiken, Algorithmen und Software voraus, die den Untersuchungsgegenstand als digitales Datum konstituieren. Die nachfolgenden Abschnitte beschreiben kurz und knapp wiederkehrende Aspekte dieser Verdatungstechniken und -praktiken, insbesondere mit Blick auf Erhebung und Transformation (Abschnitt 2), Korpuskompilierung (Abschnitt 3), Annotation (Abschnitt 4) und Wege der analytischen Datenerschließung (Abschnitt 5). Im Fazit wird die Relevanz der Verdatungsarbeit für den Analyseprozess zusammengefasst (6).
Für die sprachbasierte Forschung in den Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften stellt CLARIN eine Forschungsinfrastruktur bereit, die auf die hochgradig heterogenen Forschungsdaten in diesen Wissenschaftsbereichen angepasst ist. Mit Werkzeugen zum Auffinden, zur standardkonformen Aufbereitung und zur nachhaltigen Aufbewahrung von Daten sowie mit der Bereitstellung von virtuellen Forschungsumgebungen zur kollaborativen Erstellung und Auswertung von Forschungsdaten unterstützt CLARIN alle wesentlichen Aspekte des Datenmanagements und der Datenarchivierung. Diese CLARIN-Angebote werden durch Beratungs- und Schulungsmaßnahmen begleitet.
Das vom BMBF geförderte Verbundprojekt CLARIAH-DE, an dem über 25 Partnerinstitutionen mitwirken, unter ihnen auch das IDS, hat zum Ziel, mit der Entwicklung einer Forschungsinfrastruktur zahlreiche Angebote zur Verfügung zu stellen, die die Bedingungen der Forschungsarbeit mit digitalen Werkzeugen, Diensten sowie umfangreichen Datenbeständen im Bereich der geisteswissenschaftlichen Forschung und benachbarter Disziplinen verbessern. Die in CLARIAH-DE entwickelte Infrastruktur bietet den Forschenden Unterstützung bei der Analyse und Aufbereitung von Sprachdaten für linguistische Untersuchungen in unterschiedlichsten Anwendungskontexten und leistet somit einen Beitrag zur Entwicklung der NFDI.
