Our research focus lies on the investigation of language elaboration processes in Middle Low German. We are particularly interested in diachronic constructional changes and constructionalizations involving and affecting all linguistic dimensions. For this, it is necessary to annotate our corpus with Part-of-Speech and constructional tags. Here, we are confronted with gradualness, gradience, and ambiguity as potential sources of uncertainty that complicate the annotation process. Furthermore, due to the historicity of the investigated language, we expect cases of incomplete knowledge and comparative fallacy from the annotators. For this reason, we develop an interface that captures all annotators’ doubts.}}, author = {{Merten, Marie-Luis and Seemann, Nina}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Technological Ecosystems for Enhancing Multiculturality (TEEM'18)}}, editor = {{García-Peñalvo, Francisco José}}, isbn = {{978-1-4503-6518-5}}, keywords = {{historical languages, linguistic annotations, gradience and gradualness, ambiguity, incomplete knowledge}}, location = {{Salamanca, Spain}}, pages = {{819--825}}, publisher = {{ACM}}, title = {{{Analysing Constructional Change: Linguistic Annotation and Sources of Uncertainty}}}, doi = {{10.1145/3284179.3284320}}, year = {{2018}}, } @inproceedings{1379, author = {{Seemann, Nina and Geierhos, Michaela and Merten, Marie-Luis and Tophinke, Doris and Wever, Marcel Dominik and Hüllermeier, Eyke}}, booktitle = {{Postersession Computerlinguistik der 40.

We especially focus on syntactic ambiguity and gradience in Middle Low German, which causes uncertainty to some extent. Since current annotation tools consider construction contexts and the dynamics of the grammaticalization only partially, we plan to extend CorA – a web-based annotation tool for historical and other non-standard language data – to capture elaboration phenomena and annotator unsureness. Moreover, we seek to interactively learn morphological as well as syntactic annotations.}}, author = {{Seemann, Nina and Merten, Marie-Luis and Geierhos, Michaela and Tophinke, Doris and Hüllermeier, Eyke}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of the Joint SIGHUM Workshop on Computational Linguistics for Cultural Heritage, Social Sciences, Humanities and Literature}}, location = {{Vancouver, BC, Canada}}, pages = {{40--45}}, publisher = {{Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)}}, title = {{{Annotation Challenges for Reconstructing the Structural Elaboration of Middle Low German}}}, doi = {{10.18653/v1/W17-2206}}, year = {{2017}}, }
