Towards Induction of Structured Phoneme Inventories [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 This extended abstract surveying the work on phonological typology was prepared for "SIGTYP 2020: The Second Workshop on Computational Research in Linguistic Typology" to be held at EMNLP 2020.

Working Hard or Hardly Working: Challenges of Integrating Typology into Neural Dependency Parsers [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 This paper explores the task of leveraging typology in the context of cross-lingual dependency parsing. While this linguistic information has shown great promise in pre-neural parsing, results for neural architectures have been mixed. The aim of our investigation is to better understand this state-of-the-art.

A Typology of Crowdwork Platforms
, 2019 Despite growing interest in the gig economy among academics, policy makers and media commentators, the area is replete with different terminology, definitional constructs and contested claims about the ensuing transformation of work organisation. The aim

Modeling Language Variation and Universals: A Survey on Typological Linguistics for Natural Language Processing [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Linguistic typology aims to capture structural and semantic variation across the world's languages. A large-scale typology could provide excellent guidance for multilingual Natural Language Processing (NLP), particularly for languages that suffer from the lack of human labeled resources.

The interplay between language similarity and script on a novel multi-layer Algerian dialect corpus [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Recent years have seen a rise in interest for cross-lingual transfer between languages with similar typology, and between languages of various scripts. However, the interplay between language similarity and difference in script on cross-lingual transfer is a less studied problem.

Survey on the Use of Typological Information in Natural Language Processing [PDF]
COLING 2016, 2016 In recent years linguistic typology, which classifies the world's languages according to their functional and structural properties, has been widely used to support multilingual NLP. While the growing importance of typological information in supporting multilingual tasks has been recognised, no systematic survey of existing typological resources and ...

The Typology of Polysemy: A Multilingual Distributional Framework [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Lexical semantic typology has identified important cross-linguistic generalizations about the variation and commonalities in polysemy patterns---how languages package up meanings into words. Recent computational research has enabled investigation of lexical semantics at a much larger scale, but little work has explored lexical typology across semantic ...

Contrastive Analysis with Predictive Power: Typology Driven Estimation of Grammatical Error Distributions in ESL [PDF]
Proceedings of the 19th Conference on Computational Language
Learning, pages 94-102, Beijing, China, July 30-31, 2015, 2016 This work examines the impact of cross-linguistic transfer on grammatical errors in English as Second Language (ESL) texts. Using a computational framework that formalizes the theory of Contrastive Analysis (CA), we demonstrate that language specific error distributions in ESL writing can be predicted from the typological properties of the native ...

SIGTYP 2020 Shared Task: Prediction of Typological Features [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Typological knowledge bases (KBs) such as WALS (Dryer and Haspelmath, 2013) contain information about linguistic properties of the world's languages. They have been shown to be useful for downstream applications, including cross-lingual transfer learning and linguistic probing. A major drawback hampering broader adoption of typological KBs is that they

PLoS ONE, 2018 Creating typologies is a way to summarize the large heterogeneity of smallholder farming systems into a few farm types. Various methods exist, commonly using statistical analysis, to create these typologies.
