Datamatisk leksikografi i Norden – status og visioner

ResuméNorFA-netværket SPINN om harmonisering af sprogteknologiske ordbaser for de nordiske sprog nærmer sig sin afslutning, og denne artikel omhandler bl.a. resultaterne fra dette arbejde. Vi ser dels på status for den datamatiske leksikografis praktiske formål: de sprogteknologiske ordbaser; dels på den synergi der er mellem den datamatiske leksikografi på den ene side og den traditionelle leksikografi på den anden side. Vi undersøger endvidere nyere tilgange til håndtering af ords ofte meget komplekse konstruktionspotentiale og polysemiske egenskaber. Et af de store problemer for den datamatiske leksikografi i særdeleshed er nemlig at etablere en formelt baseret metode til håndtering af ords variabilitet; en variabilitet som i den traditionelle ordbog i nogen grad overlades til læseren helt intuitivt at opfange ud fra definitioner og brugseksempler

Semantiske sprogressourcer - mellem sprogteknologi og leksikografi

This paper discusses the synergy between lexicography and semanticlanguage resources meant for computational use; before, nowand in the future. On the basis of a brief historical overview of thebackgrounds for language technology and lexicography, respectively,I analyze why the two fields have not always cooperated as closelyas one would think useful. I give a recent example of a project thathas exploited the similarities between the two fields by reusing amonolingual dictionary for the compilation of a Danish wordnetfor technological use: DanNet. I describe some areas where modificationshave been necessary in the reuse process; this regards in particularthe adjustment of hyponymy hierarchies and the spellingoutof underspecified information. I conclude that the two fieldswill most presumably be much more connected in the future dueto recent corpus and editing tools which help exploit more radicallythe intersection between the two areas

VALUE CREATION THROUGH DATA TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES IN THE FOOTBALL INDUSTRY OBSTACLES AND DYSFUNCTIONAL EFFECTS

The use of Big Data has become an essential part of today’s business. Data is present wherever you turn your head, whether looking at new innovative business opportunities, optimization and automation of existing business models, or getting rid of old habits. Recently, different types of tracking technologies have been introduced in the professional football industry, which offers the coaches full insight into how far players run, where they run, their directional shift, pace, accelerations, and how often and how long the players stand still. This technology offers an opportunity to optimize the sporting conditions of the teams through digital transformation. By applying the framework ‘Multidimensional Value Categories’, this paper contributes to practice by suggesting how tracking technologies can contribute to business value in professional football organizations, and to theory, by identifying obstacles and dysfunctional effects related to this value creation

Fractures and Alcohol Abuse – Patient Opinion of Alcohol Intervention

Purpose: To clarify patient opinions about alcohol intervention in relation to surgery before investigating the effect in a Scandinavian multi-centre randomized trial. Material and Methods: A qualitative study. Thirteen consecutive alcohol patients with fractures participated after informed consent. They were interviewed during their hospital stay. The number of participants was based on the criteria of data-saturation. The analysis followed the applied qualitative framework model aimed at evaluation of specific participant needs within a larger overall project. Results: All patients regarded alcohol intervention in relation to surgery as a good idea. They did not consider quit drinking as a major problem during their hospital stay and had all remained abstinent in this period. About half of the patients were ready or partly ready to participate in an alcohol intervention. Patient opinions and their readiness to participate were expressed in four groups, which also reflected their readiness to stop drinking in the perioperative period, their general acceptance of supportive disulfiram as part of an alcohol intervention as well as their awareness of postoperative complications. Conclusion: This study clarified that the patients found alcohol intervention relevant in relation to surgery

Fra begrebsordbog til sprogteknologisk ressource: verber, semantiske roller og rammer – et pilotstudie

This paper describes a method of compiling a lexicon of Danish semantic frames within the model of the Berkeley FrameNet (BFN). Large groups of near-synonymous verbs and verbal nouns, including multiword units, within the domains of communication and cognition are identified and extracted from the source manuscript of a newly published Danish the-saurus. Each word or expression is then assigned an appropriate frame from BFN. The fact that words within the same domain all belong to a manageable subset of frames in BFN makes is possible to map a high number of words to their corresponding frames simultaneously. In a forthcoming annotation project where words within the same two do-mains are already identified in the corpus, the idea is to pre-annotate with the frames in our lexicon, leaving afterwards human annotators to con-firm the frame and test whether it is possible to identify the BFN seman-tic roles described for English in the Danish text. Our method reveals some interesting divergences between the semantic divisions established in the thesaurus in contrast to the ones found in BFN, showing that the two resources contribute with different types of linguistic information and thereby constitute a useful supplement to one another
