Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) experience a variety of symptoms sometimes including atypicalities in language use. The study explored diferences in semantic network organisation of adults with ASD without intellectual impairment. We assessed clusters and switches in verbal fuency tasks (‘animals’, ‘human feature’, ‘verbs’, ‘r-words’) via curve ftting in combination with corpus-driven analysis of semantic relatedness and evaluated socio-emotional and motor action related content. Compared to participants without ASD (n=39), participants with ASD (n=32) tended to produce smaller clusters, longer switches, and fewer words in semantic conditions (no p values survived Bonferroni-correction), whereas relatedness and content were similar. In ASD, semantic networks underlying cluster formation appeared comparably small without afecting strength of associations or content.
In this article, we examine the current situation of data dissemination and provision for CMC corpora. By that we aim to give a guiding grid for future projects that will improve the transparency and replicability of research results as well as the reusability of the created resources. Based on the FAIR guiding principles for research data management, we evaluate the 20 European CMC corpora listed in the CLARIN CMC Resource family, individuate successful strategies among the existing corpora and establish best practices for future projects. We give an overview of existing approaches to data referencing, dissemination and provision in European CMC corpora, and discuss the methods, formats and strategies used. Furthermore, we discuss the need for community standards and offer recommendations for best practices when creating a new CMC corpus.
In this Paper, we describe a schema and models which have been developed for the representation of corpora of computer-mediated communicatin (CMC corpora) using the representation framework provided by the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). We characterise CMC discourse as dialogic, sequentially organised interchange between humans and point out that many features of CMC are not adequately handled by current corpus encoding schemas and tools. We formulate desiderata for a representation of CMC in encoding schemes and argue why the TEI is a suitable framework for the encoding of CMC corpora. We propose a model of basic CMC units (utterances, posts, and nonverbal activities) and the macro- and micro-level structures of interactions in CMC environments. Based on these models, we introduce CMC-core, a TEI customisation for the encoding of CMC corpora, which defines CMC-specific encoding features on the four levels of elements, model classes, attribute classes, and modules of the TEI infrastructure. The description of our customisation is illustrated by encoding examples from corpora by researchers of the TEI SIG CMC, representing a variety of CMC genres, i.e. chat, wiki talk, twitter, blog, and Second Life interactions. The material described, i.e. schemata, encoding examples, and documentation, is available from the of the TEI CMC SIG Wiki and will accompany a feature request to the TEI council in late 2019.
The present paper outlines the projected second part of the Corpus Query Lingua Franca (CQLF) family of standards: CQLF Ontology, which is currently in the process of standardization at the International Standards Organization (ISO), in its Technical Committee 37, Subcommittee 4 (TC37SC4) and its national mirrors. The first part of the family, ISO 24623-1 (henceforth CQLF Metamodel), was successfully adopted as an international standard at the beginning of 2018. The present paper reflects the state of the CQLF Ontology at the moment of submission for the Committee Draft ballot. We provide a brief overview of the CQLF Metamodel, present the assumptions and aims of the CQLF Ontology, its basic structure, and its potential extended applications. The full ontology is expected to emerge from a community process, starting from an initial version created by the authors of the present paper.
In order to satisfy the information needs of a wide range of researchers across a number of disciplines, large textual datasets require careful design, collection, cleaning, encoding, annotation, storage, retrieval, and curation. This daunting set of tasks has coalesced into a number of key themes and questions that are of interest to the contributing research communities: (a) what sampling techniques can we apply? (b) what quality issues should we be aware of? (c) what infrastructures and frameworks are being developed for the efficient storage, annotation, analysis and retrieval of large datasets? (d) what affordances do visualisation techniques offer for the exploratory analysis approaches of corpora? (e) what legal paths can be followed in dealing with IPR and data protection issues governing both the data sources and the query results? (f) how to guarantee that corpus data remain available and usable in a sustainable way?
Making corpora accessible and usable for linguistic research is a huge challenge in view of (too) big data, legal issues and a rapidly evolving methodology. This does not only affect the design of user-friendly graphical interfaces to corpus analysis tools, but also the availability of programming interfaces supporting access to the functionality of these tools from various analysis and development environments. RKorAPClient is a new research tool in the form of an R package that interacts with the Web API of the corpus analysis platform KorAP, which provides access to large annotated corpora, including the German reference corpus DeReKo with 45 billion tokens. In addition to optionally authenticated KorAP API access, RKorAPClient provides further processing and visualization features to simplify common corpus analysis tasks. This paper introduces the basic functionality of RKorAPClient and exemplifies various analysis tasks based on DeReKo, that are bundled within the R package and can serve as a basic framework for advanced analysis and visualization approaches.
Der Beitrag untersucht vorhandene Lösungen und neue Möglichkeiten des Korpusausbaus aus Social Media- und internetbasierter Kommunikation (IBK) für das Deutsche Referenzkorpus (DEREKO). DEREKO ist eine Sammlung gegenwartssprachlicher Schriftkorpora am IDS, die der sprachwissenschaftlichen Öffentlichkeit über die Korpusschnittstellen COSMAS II und KorAP angeboten wird. Anhand von Definitionen und Beispielen gehen wir zunächst auf die Extensionen und Überlappungen der Konzepte Social Media, Internetbasierte Kommunikation und Computer-mediated Communication ein. Wir betrachten die rechtlichen Voraussetzungen für einen Korpusausbau aus Sozialen Medien, die sich aus dem kürzlich in relevanten Punkten reformierten deutschen Urheberrecht, aus Persönlichkeitsrechten wie der europäischen Datenschutz-Grundverordnung ergeben und stellen Konsequenzen sowie mögliche und tatsächliche Umsetzungen dar. Der Aufbau von Social Media-Korpora in großen Textmengen unterliegt außerdem korpustechnologischen Herausforderungen, die für traditionelle Schriftkorpora als gelöst galten oder gar nicht erst bestanden. Wir berichten, wie Fragen der Datenaufbereitung, des Korpus-Encoding, der Anonymisierung oder der linguistischen Annotation von Social Media Korpora für DEREKO angegangen wurden und welche Herausforderungen noch bestehen. Wir betrachten die Korpuslandschaft verfügbarer deutschsprachiger IBK- und Social Media-Korpora und geben einen Überblick über den Bestand an IBK- und Social Media-Korpora und ihre Charakteristika (Chat-, Wiki Talk- und Forenkorpora) in DEREKO sowie von laufenden Projekten in diesem Bereich. Anhand korpuslinguistischer Mikro- und Makro-Analysen von Wikipedia-Diskussionen im Vergleich mit dem Gesamtbestand von DEREKO zeigen wir charakterisierende sprachliche Eigenschaften von Wikipedia-Diskussionen auf und bewerten ihren Status als Repräsentant von IBK-Korpora.
Die Korpusanalyseplattform KorAP wird als Nachfolgesystem zu COSMAS II am Leibniz-Institut für Deutsche Sprache (IDS) entwickelt und erlaubt einen umfassenden Zugriff auf einen Teil von DeReKo (Kupietz et al. 2010). Trotz einiger noch fehlender Funktionalitäten ist KorAP bereits produktiv einsetzbar. Im Folgenden wollen wir am Beispiel der Untersuchung von Social-Media-Korpora einige neue Möglichkeiten und Besonderheiten vorstellen.
This paper reports on recent developments within the European Reference Corpus EuReCo, an open initiative that aims at providing and using virtual and dynamically definable comparable corpora based on existing national, reference or other large corpora. Given the well-known shortcomings of other types of multilingual corpora such as parallel/translation corpora (shining-through effects, over-normalization, simplification, etc.) or web-based comparable corpora (covering only web material), EuReCo provides a unique linguistic resource offering new perspectives for fine-grained contrastive research on authentic cross-linguistic data, applications in translation studies and foreign language teaching and learning.
