Sesgo de género en la inteligencia artificial: “de tal palo, tal astilla”
La inteligencia artificial fue concebida por el ser humano para facilitar tareas de procesamiento y clasificación de datos y dar soluciones rápidas a determinados problemas. No obstante, como su creador, es imperfecta y tiende a repetir patrones que pueden ser discriminatorios. Esta falla en el sistema se debe tanto a su construcción como a la información que la alimenta y, hasta nuestros días, no ha podido ser superada, pese a las diversas soluciones que se han planteado al respecto
Sustaining the Dictionary of the Southern Dutch Dialects (DSDD) : a case study for CLARIN and DARIAH
The Database of the Southern Dutch Dialects: new opportunities for digital lexicological research
The Southern Dutch dialect area consists of four dialect groups; the Flemish, Brabantic,
Limburgian and the Zeeland dialects, partly found in the Netherlands, in Belgium and in NordPas-de-Calais (France). Each of these dialects has been described in a separate dictionary. The
Flemish, Brabantic and Limburgian dialect dictionaries are similarly constructed
onomasiological dialect dictionaries, whereas the Zeeland dialect dictionary is semasiologically
arranged.
The Database of the Southern Dutch Dialects (DSDD) project, initiated by Ghent University and
undertaken in close collaboration with the Dutch Language Institute, aimed to combine the
onomasiological dictionaries into one platform accessible for both dialect researchers and a
wider audience. Following the launch of the DSDD platform in 2020, dialect researchers can
now make use of extensive search functionalities and geo-visualise their results on an
interactive map.
The DSDD enables searching for individual dialect words (e.g. puit 'frog'), for all dialect words
from a certain municipality or region (e.g. all dialect words from the city of Antwerp) or for all
dialect words belonging to a certain concept (e.g. 'frog') or theme (fauna). Filters are available
to make the search query as accurate as possible.
Based on the search results, interactive maps can be compiled, visualising the data in its
geographical setting. The results can be clustered in various ways, using, for instance, frequency
or etymologically related entries. The maps are flexible enabling the user, for example, to select
the required level of detail to be visualised for the chosen region. A set of symbols and colours
is available and can be arranged according to the user’s needs. The area map can be enlarged
or reduced in size and printed or downloaded as a PDF file. In the future, the alphabetical dialect
data from the Woordenboek der Zeeuwse Dialecten will be added to the platform.
