Linking Linguistic and Geographic Distance in Four Semantic Domains: Computational Geo-Analyses of Internal and External Factors in a Dialect Continuum [PDF]
Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence, 2021 Dialectometry studies patterns of linguistic variation through correlations between geographic and aggregate measures of linguistic distance. However, aggregating smooths out the role of semantic characteristics, which have been shown to affect the ...

Probabilistic corpus-based dialectometry [PDF]
Journal of Linguistic Geography, 2018 Researchers in dialectometry have begun to explore measurements based on fundamentally quantitative metrics, often sourced from dialect corpora, as an alternative to the traditional signals derived from dialect atlases. This change of data type amplifies an existing issue in the classical paradigm, namely that locations may vary in coverage and that ...

Advances in Dialectometry [PDF]
Annual Review of Linguistics, 2014 Dialectometry applies computational and statistical analyses within dialectology, making work more easily replicable and understandable. This survey article first reviews the field briefly in order to focus on developments in the past five years. Dialectometry no longer focuses exclusively on aggregate analyses, but rather deploys various techniques to

Social (distributed) language modeling, clustering and dialectometry [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2009 Workshop on Graph-based Methods for Natural Language Processing - TextGraphs-4, 2009 We present ongoing work in a scalable, distributed implementation of over 200 million individual language models, each capturing a single user's dialect in a given language (multilingual users have several models). These have a variety of practical applications, ranging from spam detection to speech recognition, and dialectometrical methods on the ...

Towards a social dialectometry: the analysis of internal border effects
Estudos de Lingüística GalegaWe aim to broaden the scope of border studies in dialectology and show that intra-state political borders can impact dialect continua as significantly as inter-state political borders. Our analysis focuses on the processes of language change currently taking place on either side of the Catalonia-Aragon border in Spain. We aim to bring dialectometry and

Corpus-based dialectometry with topic models [PDF]
Journal of Linguistic GeographyAbstractThis paper presents a topic modeling approach to corpus-based dialectometry. Topic models are most often used in text mining to find latent structure in a collection of documents. They are based on the idea that frequently co-occurring words present the same underlying topic.
