New discourse parsing framework - eRST
by Amir.Zeldes＠georgetown.edu 11 Nov '24

11 Nov '24

*Apologies for cross-postings* � eRST – enhanced Rhetorical Structure Theory � We are delighted to introduce a new parsing framework and datasets for discourse relation recognition: eRST is an ehanced version of Rhetorical Structure Theory which allows multiple, concurrent and non-projective discourse relations in a formally constrained graph, aligned to a large inventory of discourse relation signals, based on the Signaling Corpus taxonomy. Signals are divided into 9 classes and 45 sub-classes, including traditional discourse markers such as PDTB-style connectives, but also lexical, syntactic and semantic signals, such as repetition, lexical chains and anaphoric relations. � eRST is described in depth in this paper: � Zeldes, Amir, Aoyama, Tatsuya, Liu, Yang Janet, Peng, Siyao, Das, Debopam and Gessler, Luke (2024) "eRST: A Signaled Graph Theory of Discourse Relations and Organization". Computational Linguistics, 1–47. https://direct.mit.edu/coli/article/doi/10.1162/coli_a_00538/124464/eRST-A-… � You can also find an overview at the following website, as well as analyses for nearly 250K words of English in 24 spoken and written text types, from the freely available UD English GUM and GENTLE corpora: � https://gucorpling.org/erst/ � If you want to learn more and are participating in EMNLP in Miami this week, please check out our talk on Wednesday! And if you are interested in shallow discourse parsing, please check out our paper on Tuesday and the aligned PDTB3-style relations for the same data in this paper: https://aclanthology.org/2024.emnlp-main.684/ �

As the significance and use of digital resources continually expands into new fields of study, there are some disciplines which have already been working with digital methods for decades. This conference aims to present an overview of the current state of research in fields such as archival studies, cultural studies, history, linguistics, literature, performing and visual arts, philosophy where novel approaches are being made available through digital tools. The 2024 conference focusses on novel and innovative approaches to make use of digital applications, in particular in the light of the advent of machine learning and A.I. solutions. DRDHum 2024 is organized by the University of Eastern Finland. The first (D)RDHum Conference was hosted at the University of Oulu in 2019, where the focus was specifically on linguistic text corpora. The second conference, 2022 at the University of Jyväskylä was more expansive, looking at digital resources and technologies within the humanities and include multi-modal approaches.

ENEOLI Survey on Studying and Documenting Neologisms: deadline extension
by kris.heylen＠ivdnt.org 05 Nov '24

05 Nov '24

Dear colleague, working on lexical innovation and neologisms, If you didn’t have the chance yet, we kindly invite you to participate in the ENEOLI survey on neology by November 15 and help us get valuable information about available resources for neology research and documentation: https://1ka.arnes.si/eneoli . The survey is being conducted as part of the European Network on Lexical Innovation (ENEOLI) Cost Action CA22126. Its objective is to gather insights into the methods, practices, tools, and resources used in neology, the study of lexical innovations, including both neologisms (new words or expressions) and new senses of existing words. We want to reach as many people as we can, so please share the survey with your colleagues, your local research and expert communities and through social media channels Best regards, On behalf of the ENEOLI action, Kris Heylen (Dutch Language Institute, Leiden, The Netherlands)
