(2007) Studying Connectivity with the Help of Computer-Readable Corpora: Some Exemplary Analyses from Modern and Historical, Written and Spoken Corpora. In: Rehbein, J.; Hohenstein, C. & Pietsch, L. (ed.): Connectivity in Grammar and Discourse, Hamburg Studies in Multilingualism 5Amsterdam: Benjamins. [Abstract] [BibTeX]

Abstract: This paper discusses methodological aspects of the use of electronic language corpora for the study of connectivity. We demonstrate how a corpus-based approach was used to investigate functional characteristics of coordinating elements in sentence- or utterance-initial position across different languages (English, German, Old Swedish and Turkish), across different modalities (written and spoken) and across the diachronic dimension (historic and modern languages). Our focus is on the difficulties we encountered in this study when attempting to transfer corpus-based methods developed for the analysis of corpora of modern, written language to the analysis of corpora of historic or spoken language. We suggest an abstract corpus-linguistic workflow and discuss where and how this workflow differs according to the corpus type, and how well its individual steps are supported by current corpus technology.

Höder, S.; Wörner, K. & Zeevaert, L. (2007) Corpus-based investigations on word order change: The case of Old Nordic. In: Arbeiten zur Mehrsprachigkeit, Folge B 811 ff. [Abstract] [BibTeX] [URL]

Abstract: This paper presents results from an interdisciplinary cooperation within the Collaborative Research Centre on Multilingualism. First results of this cooperation were published in an earlier paper (BAUMGARTEN et al. 2007) concentrating on an investigation of functional characteristics of coordinating elements in English, German, Old Swedish and Turkish corpora. The aim of the second part of the cooperation was to develop corpus linguistic methods in order to be able to examine word order change in subordinate clauses in older Swedish and Danish texts in comparison to Old West Norse. The starting point for the investigation was the observation that the word order in Swedish main clauses is rather stable from the earliest written sources up to contemporary Swedish, whereas in subordinate clauses, from a diachronic perspective, far-reaching changes can be observed. Starting from the hypothesis that language contact triggered this change, a comparison of an Old Swedish, an Old Danish and an Old West Norse version of the Story of Charlemagne was performed. The West Norse version almost exclusively shows verb second order and no examples of verb late order. In the Danish and the Swedish versions, verb second is also the main option, but more examples of the finite verb in a later position can be found in both texts. In our opinion it seems to be reasonable to suggest that the development of new text types based on Latin models triggered the change that can be observed in the East Norse texts.

Schmidt, T.; Chiarcos, C.; Lehmberg, T.; Rehm, G.; Witt, A. & Hinrichs, E. (2006) Avoiding Data Graveyards: From Heterogeneous Data Collected in Multiple Research Projects to Sustainable Linguistic Resources. In: Proceedings of the E-MELD 2006 Workshop on Digital Language Documentation: Tools and Standards: The State of the Art, Lansing, Michigan: [Abstract] [BibTeX] [URL]

Abstract: This paper describes a new research initiative addressing the issue of sustainability of linguistic resources. The initiative is a cooperation between three collaborative research centres in Germany – the SFB 441 “Linguistic Data Structures” in Tübingen, the SFB 538 “Multilingualism” in Hamburg, and the SFB 632 “Information Structure” in Potsdam/Berlin. The aim of the project is to develop methods for sustainable archiving of the diverse bodies of linguistic data used at the three sites. In the first half of the paper, the data handling solutions developed so far at the three centres are briefly introduced. This is followed by an assessment of their commonalities and differences and of what these entail for the work of the new joint initiative. The second part then sketches seven areas of open questions with respect to sustainable data handling and gives a more detailed account of two of them – integration of linguistic terminologies and development of best practice guidelines.

Wörner, K.; Witt, A.; Rehm, G. & Dipper, S. (2006) Modelling Linguistic Data Structures. In: Proceedings of the Extreme Markup Languages 2006, Montréal, Canada: [Abstract] [BibTeX] [URL]

Abstract: Linguistic corpora have been annotated by means of SGML-based markup languages for almost 20 years. We can, very roughly, differentiate between three distinct evolutionary stages of markup technologies. (1) Originally, single SGML tree-based document instances were deemed sufficient for the representation of linguistic structures. (2) Linguists began to realize that alternatives and extensions to the traditional model are needed. Formalisms such as, for example, NITE were proposed: the NITE Object Model (NOM) consists of multi-rooted trees. (3) We are now on the threshold of the third evolutionary stage: even NITE's very flexible approach is not suited for all linguistic purposes. As some structures, such as these, cannot be modeled by multi-rooted trees, an even more flexible approach is needed in order to provide a generic annotation format that is able to represent genuinely arbitrary linguistic data structures.

Schmidt, T. (2005) EXMARaLDA und die Datenbank "Mehrsprachigkeit" - Konzepte und praktische Erfahrungen. In: Dipper, S. & Stede, M. (ed.): Heterogeneity in Focus: Creating and Using Linguistic Databases, Interdisciplinary Studies on Information Structure (ISIS) 221-42. Potsdam: Universitätsverlag Potsdam. [Abstract] [BibTeX] [URL]

Abstract: This paper presents some concepts and principles used in the devel-opment of a database of multilingual spoken discourse at the Univer-sity of Hamburg. The emphasis of the first part is on general consid-erations for the handling of heterogeneous data sets: After showing that diversity in transcription data is partly conceptually and partly technologically motivated, it is argued that the processing of transcrip-tion corpora should be approached via a three-level architecture which separates form (application) and content (data) on the one hand, and logical and physical data structures on the other hand. Such an archi-tecture does not only pave the way for modern text-technological ap-proaches to linguistic data processing, it can also help to decide where and how a standardization in the work with heterogeneous data is pos-sible and desirable and where it would run counter to the needs of the research community. It is further argued that, in order to ensure user acceptance, new solutions developed in this approach must take care not to abandon established concepts too quickly. The focus of the second part is on some practical experiences with users and technologies gained in the four years’ project work. Con-cerning the practical development work, the value of open standards like XML and Unicode is emphasized and some limitations of the “platform-independent” JAVA technology are indicated. With respect to users of the EXMARaLDA system, a predominantly conservative attitude towards technological innovations in transcription corpus work can be stated: individual users tend to stick to known functional-ities and are reluctant to adopt themselves to the new possibilities. Furthermore, an active commitment to cooperative corpus work still seems to be the exception rather than the rule. It is concluded that technological innovations can contribute their share to a progress in the work with heterogeneous linguistic data, but that they will have to be supplemented, in the long run, with an ade-quate methodological reflection and the creation of an appropriate in-frastructure.

Abstract: This paper attempts a new look at computer assisted transcription as it is commonly practised within the fields of discourseanalysis and language acquisition studies.The first part proposes a bridge between discourse analytical methodology and text technological methods with the concept ofmodelling as its central idea. The secondpart demonstrates the EXMARaLDA system, a set of formats and tools for computerassisted transcription that builds on the ideas developed in the first part and implements them in a way that can lead to significant improvement in current research practice.

Schmidt, T. (2004) Transcribing and annotating spoken language with EXMARaLDA. In: Proceedings of the LREC-Workshop on XML based richly annotated corpora, Lisbon 2004, Paris: ELRA. [Abstract] [BibTeX] [URL]

Abstract: This paper describes EXMARaLDA, an XML-based framework for the construction, dissemination and analysis of corpora of spoken language transcriptions. Departing from a prototypical example of a “partitur” (musical score) transcription, the EXMARaLDA “single timeline, multiple tiers” data model and format is presented alongside with the EXMARaLDA Partitur-Editor, a tool for inputting and visualizing such data. This is followed by a discussion of the interaction of EXMARaLDA with other frameworks and tools that work with similar data models. Finally, this paper presents an extension of the “single timeline, multiple tiers” data model and describes its application within the EXMARaLDA system.

Abstract: EXMARaLDA is a system for computer transcription of spoken discourse that is being developed at the SFB ‚Mehrsprachigkeit’ as a basis of a multilingual discourse database into which the transcriptions in use at the SFB will be integrated at a later point in time. The present paper describes the theoretical background of the development – a formal model of discourse transcription based on the annotation graph formalism (Bird/Liberman (2001)) – and its practical realisation in the form of an XML-based data format and several tools for input, output and manipulation of the data.

Abstract: This paper describes EXMARaLDA, a system for computer transcription of spoken discourse developed and used by the SFB "Mehrsprachigkeit" at the university of Hamburg. EXMARaLDA consists of several DTDs for XML coding of transcription data and some input and output tools for these formats. Apart from being a transcription system in its own right, EXMARaLDA also plays the role of a mediator between older existing data formats at the SFB and between these formats and a planned database of multilingual spoken discourse.
