CLARIN Hum. project support Two projects supported under WP3 by University of Bergen / Uni Digital: • DATIST (U. of Nancy 2) • DID (Copenhagen U.) Expertise at Uni Digital: corpus, lexicon and text encoding technologies Coordination at University of Bergen: Koenraad De Smedt
DATIST PhD project by Frédérique Brin-Henry at U. of Nancy 2 Mining diagnostic reports by speech therapists, looking at the use of specific terms Challenges for advice from CLARIN: • Prepare the unstructured texts and metadata • Apply statistical tools to text analysis
DATIST Activities: • Encoding and structuring of texts and metadata (writing of conversion programs and manual work) • Guidance in statistical analysis of data (plots, diagrams, correspondence analysis)
DATIST Evaluation of cooperation: • Communication via email, phone, Skype was satisfactory • A process of personal supervision and training; takes time and negotiation • Illustrates the need for international cooperation on PhD training (such as CLARA ) and co-supervision
DID Danish Insular Dictionary (Ømålsordboken; contact: Henrik Hovmark) Long-term project financed by Copenhagen University Two challenges for advice from CLARIN: • Replacement for obsolete special editor with custom phonetic fonts • Replacement for Word Cruncher corpus tool
DID Activities: • Written statement was produced on a test of a new editor • Work on selecting new corpus tool ongoing
DID Evaluation of cooperation: • Communication through meetings, email • Understanding of requirements takes time • Project illustrates difficulties that arise when • Chosen tools and data formats do not supporting open standards • Migration to new tools is considered long after digital obsolescence has incurred
