Presentation Transcript

  1. Transcribing and annotating spoken language with EXMARaLDA LREC-Workshop on XML-based richly annotated corpora, Lisbon, 29 May 2004 Thomas Schmidt Sonderforschungsbereich 538 Mehrsprachigkeit University of Hamburg

  2. Richly annotated corpora? • Richly annotable corpora? • Corpus creation • Exchangeability • Framework for things to be annotated?  Framework for annotations CHAT Corpus HIAT-DOS Corpus WordBase Corpus Verbmobil Corpus syncWriter Corpus Transcription framework Annotation framework

  3. Partitur Transcriptions

  4. Partitur Transcriptions • Structural relations: • Temporal sequence

  5. Partitur Transcriptions • Structural relations: • Temporal sequence • Simultaneity

  6. Partitur Transcriptions • Structural relations: • Temporal sequence • Simultaneity • Equivalence („Flat“ annotation)

  7. Single timeline, multiple tiers

  8. Single timeline, multiple tiers

  9. Single timeline, multiple tiers

  10. EXMARaLDA Partitur-Editor Graphical User Interface

  11. EXMARaLDA Partitur-Editor Manipulating tiers, the timeline and events

  12. EXMARaLDA Partitur-Editor Visualization as a wrapped partitur ... as a line transcript ... in column notation

  13. TASX-Annotator

  14. PRAAT

  15. ELAN

  16. Variants of „single timeline, multiple tiers“

  17. Beyond the single timeline

  18. Beyond the single timeline • Simple annotation: Part of speech tagging • each word a single entity • add suitable points to the timeline

  19. Beyond the single timeline Determine order of words (syllables, phonemes, ...) in overlaps or Allow bifurcations of the timeline

  20. Segmentation • EXMARaLDA Basic Transcription • „Single timeline, multiple tiers“ • Intuitive transcription of verbal and non-verbal behaviour • Visualization • Exchange with TASX, PRAAT and ELAN • Simple (utterance level) annotation, e.g.: • Utterance translation • Prosody (Dynamic Modulation etc.) Finite State Machine (HIAT, GAT, DIDA, CHAT, ...) • EXMARaLDA Segmented Transcription • „Bifurcated timeline, multiple tiers“ • Advanced (word, syllable, phoneme level) annotation, e.g.: • POS-Tagging • Morphological transliteration • Intonation contour • Tone

  21. Meta Data EXMARaLDA Corpus Manager (CoMa): Annotation of speakers and whole interactions

  22. Summary • EXMARaLDA Transcription Framework • „Single timeline, multiple tiers“ data model: • Common basis for different existing transcription system • Intuitive, efficient data model suitable for • User-friendly input • Flexible visualization • Simple flat annotations • Exchange with other tools • Extended data model „Segmented transcription“: • Automatically generated from „Basic transcription“ • More advanced flat annotations • Meta data annotation

  23. Open questions 1 • Limitations • Hierarchal annotation (e.g. Phrase structure)? • Discontinued constituents (e.g. German particle verbs)? • „Cross level“ (= cross tier) annotation? • Visualization? Exchange EXMARaLDA Basic Transcription TASX Level 1 ELAN Abstract Corpus Model PRAAT EXMARaLDA Segmented Transcription TASX Level 2 ? ? ? ? ? Annotation graphs

  24. Hierarchy Based Data Models: XML: standardized storage DTDs/Schemas: validity check XSLT: transformation XPath / XQuery: query DOM / NOM: in-memory representation Time based data models: XML: standardized storage How to check validity? How to transform? How to query? AGLIB? Open questions 2 First step: Understand differences and commonalities between existing time- based data models Second step: „Harmonize“ existing time based models
