Representing Compounding with OntoLex. An Evaluation of Vocabularies for Word Formation Resources (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | OntoLex is a de facto standard for the modelling of lexical resources in the framework of Linguistic Linked Open Data. |
| Approach: | They propose to use OntoLex to convert Linked Open Data into compounds by using the RDF model. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can be applied to all resources harmonized in that format, potentially allowing for the conversion into Linked Open Data of a large amount of structured data. |
Odi et Amo. Creating, Evaluating and Extending Sentiment Lexicons for Latin. (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a new paper aims to provide sentiment analysis tools for ancient languages . the current sentiment analysis resources only cover modern languages based on textual typologies . |
| Approach: | They propose to use manually-curated Latin lexicons to evaluate sentiment analysis tools . they propose a gold standard and a silver standard for evaluating lexical items . |
| Outcome: | The proposed lexicons are evaluated using a gold standard and a silver standard for sentiment analysis. |
Exploring Neural Topic Modeling on a Classical Latin Corpus (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Using topic modeling, it is possible to study Latin literature through methods and tools that support distant reading. |
| Approach: | They propose to use topic modeling to investigate thematic distribution of Latin corpus . they train, optimize and compare two neural models to evaluate which performs better . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model is compared with two neural models with a Classical Latin corpus and shows that it is coherent and interpretable. |
Modelling and Linking an Old Latin-Portuguese Dictionary to the LiLa Knowledge Base (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | lexical and lexicographic information of Antonio Velez's bilingual Latin-Portuguese dictionary was modelled using the Lexicon Model for Ontologies and its lexicog module. |
| Approach: | This paper describes steps undertaken to include data from Antonio Velez’s bilingual Latin-Portuguese dictionary into the LiLa Knowledge Base of interoperable linguistic resources for Latin. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model includes lexical and lexicographic information from the source dictionary with those of the LiLa collection of Latin lemmas. |
The Index Thomisticus Treebank as Linked Data in the LiLa Knowledge Base (2022.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a series of Latin treebanks with word-by-word account of syntax and morphology of Latin texts have been published only in recent years. |
| Approach: | They propose to publish Latin treebanks that contain morphology and syntax annotations . they propose to use principles of the Linguistic Linked Open Data community . |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach enables interoperability between corpora and lexical resources for Latin . language learning and corpus-based research are the most obvious applications . |
A New Latin Treebank for Universal Dependencies: Charters between Ancient Latin and Romance Languages (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Currently, Latin features the most data and the most treebanks of all the ancient languages of UD . |
| Approach: | They introduce a Latin treebank that follows the Universal Dependencies (UD) annotation standard . they use a translation of the late Latin Charter Treebank 2 (LLCT2) into the UD style . |
| Outcome: | The proposed treebank is based on the Universal Dependencies (UD) annotation standard. |
