Working Group 4: Quantifying and promoting diversity
- Leader: Marie-Catherine de Marneffe (Belgium)
- Vice-leader: Abigail Walsh (Ireland)
Workplan
This WG is transversal to WGs 1-3 and will focus on how the Action serves inter- and intra-linguistic diversity. Its activities will overlap with the 3 other WGs in:
- Networking for diversity:
- bringing together pre-existing groups dedicated to NLP-applicable universality,
- integrating experts of (notably low-resourced) languages not yet covered by these groups,
- integrating experts in linguistic typology;
- Quantifying diversity:
- designing measures of inter- and intra-linguistic diversity in language resources and tools,
- using these measures to quantify diversity in UD and PARSEME corpora;
- Promoting diversity:
- procedures for better use of the existing resources, based on their estimated diversity,
- selecting new data to be annotated, so as to favour intra-linguistic diversity,
- designing evaluation scenarios which favour tools performing well on rare and diverse phenomena and low resourced languages,
- integrating and training new experts dedicated to low-resourced and endangered languages,
- validating the unified annotation guidelines (WG1) and lexicon formats (WG2) against newly included languages and defining new language-specific categories and extensions, if needed,
- coordinating of the creation and enhancement of annotated corpora and lexica for low-resourced languages,
- discovering and analysing rare linguistic phenomena, and describing them in resources and tools,
- coordination of the development of NLP tools (WG3) for low-resourced and endangered languages.
