Nu finns korpusen i Korp, både i det moderna läget, och i ett eget SAOB-läge där SAOB-redaktionen gjort ett eget korpusurval.

Korpusen finns även att ladda ner som omkastade meningsmängder från Språkbanken Texts sida med språkliga data.

Tillgången till forskningsdata är kritisk inom flera forskningsdomäner, men personligt innehåll hindrar ofta data från att vidareanvändas. Dataskyddsförordningen, GDPR (EU-kommissionen, 2016), föreslår pseudonymisering som en lösning för att säkra öppen tillgång till forskningsdata. Den största utmaningen är hur man effektivt pseudonymiserar data så att individer inte kan identifieras, samtidigt som man behåller data som är användbar för forskning inom bland annat datalingvistik, lingvistik och naturlig språkbehandling. 

Under workshopen diskuteras flera utmaningar inom pseudonymisering.

RaPID-5@LREC-COLING2024: Resources and ProcessIng of linguistic, para-linguistic and extralinguistic Data from people with various forms of cognitive/psychiatric/developmental 

Full day event: May 2024 (exact date TBA)
Location: Lingotto Conference Centre - Turin, Italy
More information: https://spraakbanken.gu.se/en/rapid-2024 

The 5th RaPID Workshop (RaPID-5) is an interdisciplinary forum for researchers to share information, findings, methods, models and experience of the collection and processing of data produced by individuals with various forms of mental, cognitive, neuropsychiatric or neurodegenerative disabilities, such as aphasia, dementia, autism, Parkinson's disease or schizophrenia. Data includes spontaneous [continuous] speech and transcriptions, eye movement measurements, and various types of digital and multimodal biomarkers such as sensor data from mobile phones, smart watches, wearable devices, and the like.

A particular interest with RaPID-5 is studies on the relationship between different linguistic, paralinguistic and extralinguistic observations that can aid the identification, extraction, correlation, evaluation and modelling of different linguistic and/or multimodal phenotypes and measurements, which can be used to facilitate diagnosis, monitor development or predict individuals at risk of developing neurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.

RaPID-5 particularly welcomes contributions on multidisciplinary aspects of processing data from the aforementioned populations, and with a focus on the interaction between clinical/medical science/informatics, language technology, and computer science.

Born and raised in Wrocław, Poland, she took her Master’s degree in linguistics in Heidelberg, Germany. As she started dating a Swede she planned a move to Sweden. At the same time, she started to look for something more practical to do with her linguistic knowledge.

– My friends from college became copywriters, translators and teachers. I started thinking about doing computational linguistics.

So Maria got accepted into the Master in Language Technology programme at the University of Gothenburg.

– I enjoy the academic stuff, it is a kind of a family tradition. Many of my family members were teachers or worked in academia so it is familiar to me.

Having graduated she started to look for work and was made aware of a PhD position at Språkbanken Text. It fitted what she had worked on before: corpus linguistics. She is working with Elena Volodina and her project Mormor Karl. One goal is to create algorithms for automatic pseudonimzation of research data. This has the benefit of increasing the accessability of data that contains sensitive information.

– Hopefully my work will give students an easier situation working with contemporary data than I had.

In her spare time Maria likes to play games, everything from computer to roleplaying games. She also enjoys going out to take pictures of Swedish wildlife.

– Now we play the new Swedish edition of Drakar & Demoner. It trains my Swedish, even though I mostly get better at the names of medieval arms!
