Construction and dissemination of a corpus of spoken interaction - tools and workflows in the FOLK project (2016)

Thomas Schmidt

This paper is about the workflow for construction and dissemination of FOLK (Forschungs - und Lehrkorpus Gesprochenes Deutsch – Research and Teaching Corpus of Spoken German), a large corpus of authentic spoken interaction data, recorded on audio and video. Section 2 describes in detail the tools used in the individual steps of transcription, anonymization, orthographic normalization, lemmatization and POS tagging of the data, as well as some utilities used for corpus management. Section 3 deals with the DGD (Datenbank für Gesprochenes Deutsch - Database of Spoken German) as a tool for distributing completed data sets and making them available for qualitative and quantitative analysis. In section 4, some plans for further development are sketched.

Conversion and annotation web services for spoken language data in CLARIN (2017)

Thomas Schmidt Hanna Hedeland Daniel Jettka

We present an approach to making existing CLARIN web services usable for spoken language transcriptions. Our approach is based on a new TEI-based ISO standard for such transcriptions. We show how existing tool formats can be transformed to this standard, how an encoder/decoder pair for the TCF format enables users to feed this type of data through a WebLicht tool chain, and why and how web services operating directly on the standard format would be useful.

Annotation and classification of French feedback communicative functions (2015)

Laurent Prévot Jan Gorisch Sankar Mukherjee

Feedback utterances are among the most frequent in dialogue. Feedback is also a crucial aspect of all linguistic theories that take social interaction involving language into account. However, determining communicative functions is a notoriously difficult task both for human interpreters and systems. It involves an interpretative process that integrates various sources of information. Existing work on communicative function classification comes from either dialogue act tagging where it is generally coarse grained concerning the feed- back phenomena or it is token-based and does not address the variety of forms that feed- back utterances can take. This paper introduces an annotation framework, the dataset and the related annotation campaign (involving 7 raters to annotate nearly 6000 utterances). We present its evaluation not merely in terms of inter-rater agreement but also in terms of usability of the resulting reference dataset both from a linguistic research perspective and from a more applicative viewpoint.

Planning a new type of literary edition: The Thomas Mann Project (2001)

Ingrid Schmidt Carolin Müller-Spitzer

The constantly changing requirements of today’s media landscape demand a new concept for literary editions. Such a forward-looking model should be SGML/XML-based, and should acknowledge the central importance of topic maps. In this respect, the Thomas Mann project combines in a unique way the work of one of the most famous authors of the 20th century with an innovative way of information organization.
