  text: "Since its beginnings in the late 1980s, the field of Learner Corpus Research
    (LCR) has been continuously evolving and thereby widening its scope. LCR is rapidly
    closing gaps within its original scope by expanding on the languages, language
    mediums (spoken vs written) and learner types covered, and it is turning its attention
    to ever-emerging new research questions and phenomena which arise at the crossroads
    with neighboring disciplines. In fact, by embracing e.g. the latest technical
    developments in Natural Language Processing and Computer Science as well as by
    adopting state-of-the-art research methodologies used in Corpus Linguistics which
    include sophisticated statistical methods of data analysis, LCR is dipping into
    new interdisciplinary subjects with curiosity and expanding its research scope
    and methodological repertoire.\r\nThis volume combines selected research papers
    from the 4th LCR conference hosted by Eurac Research in Bolzano/Bozen (Italy)
    in October 2017. All contributions in this volume build on the topics of previous
    LCR conference volumes, and enrich them with their research. The contributions
    are arranged thematically and refer to the following ve LCR topics: (1) analysis
    of learner data in spoken language, (2) analysis of learner data in corpora of
    other languages than English, (3) analysis of learner data of young learners,
    (4) LCR, language learning and pedagogical applications, and (5) LCR and automatic
    language modeling. The assembled papers introduce innovative research strands,
    present original data and research findings, and discuss latest desiderata within
    the five thematic focal points of the book."
