	Text corpus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In linguistics, a corpus (plural corpora) or text corpus is a large and structured set of texts (now usually electronically stored and processed).
		A corpus may contain texts in a single language (monolingual corpus) or text data in multiple languages (multilingual corpus).

	A Crash Course in Corpus Linguistics
		Corpus linguistics methods are ideal for research on registers and register differences, because in order to establish similarities and/or differences between registers huge amount of texts are needed.
		The Corpus of Middle English Prose or Verse is a part of the Middle English Compendium, also containing the Middle English Dictionary and a HyperBibliography of Middle English Prose and Verse.
		The TIMIT corpus is a corpus of recorded speech, containing 6,300 sentences, recorded from male and female speakers of eight dialects of American English.

	Corpus linguistics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Corpus linguistics is the study of language as expressed in samples (corpora) or "real world" text.
		The core of a corpus is the derivation of a set of Part-of-speech tags, representing a formal overview of the various types of words and word-relationships in a given language.
		A landmark in modern corpus linguistics was the publication by Henry Kucera and Nelson Francis of Computational Analysis of Present-Day American English in 1967, a work based on the analysis of the Brown Corpus, a carefully compiled selection of current American English, totalling about a million words drawn from a wide variety of sources.

		A corpus may be intended to represent (in the statistical sense) a particular linguistic variety or sublanguage, or it may be intended to represent all aspects of some assumed `core' language.
		All composite texts share the characteristic that their different component texts may be of structurally similar or dissimilar types.

	Encoding the British National Corpus
		OUCS's main role in the project is to encode all corpus texts in a standard format, and to act as a central clearing-house for the exchange and storage of corpus texts for all parties involved in BNC construction work.
		This illustrates one important reason for the use of TEI-conformant SGML in distributing the corpus: researchers are free to convert to and from the encoding systems and software they are happy using in their local set-up, but for the exchange of data between different computational set-ups, a single, standardized encoding scheme is to be preferred.
		For example, when text is captured using optical character recognition, it is cheap and easy to capture changes in type style, but manual intervention is required to mark poetry, and to insert footnote text at its point of reference.

	The British National Corpus
		Newspaper text is increasingly easy to acquire, since most publishers now use computerised technology to produce their papers, and because, once it is published, most newspaper text is no longer thought of as work whose copyright must be closely guarded.
		The availability of newspaper text means that many researchers and teachers use it in their work; the value of the BNC's newspaper text is in its quantity, its range and its balance.
		Texts, or normally only sampled sections of texts, were included without charge to the BNC project, on condition that no commercial exploitation was to be carried out from the corpus, and that the corpus would be issued to users under the terms of a standardised license agreement protecting the owners' rights.

	Reading Academic Text Corpus
		Since the corpus was originally established in the academic year 19956, the number of theses has increased from 8 to 38, and the Centre is planning to expand the corpus further.
		Recent research work conducted on texts in the corpus has investigated the organization of theses in different disciplines, the uses of citations (a report on this study can be viewed online), and of the means by which student writers position themselves within their texts.
		This corpus would then be available to materials developers at the School as a source of authentic academic text data that can be used to build up an academic vocabulary list, and to provide examples of authentic academic language use for analysis.

		Pathophysiology: Dysgenesis of corpus callosum is usually a sporadic occurrence, although the incidence is increased in patients with trisomy 18, trisomy 13, and trisomy 8.
		Fibers of the corpus callosum arise from the superficial layers of the cerebral cortex and they project to the homotypic region of the contralateral cortex by passing through the corpus callosum while crossing the midline.
		Secondary destruction of corpus callosum occurs when the genu and anterior body are destroyed, leaving the posterior portion of the corpus callosum intact.

	Cover Pages: Electronic Text Corpus of Sumerian Literature (ETCSL)
		This standardised, electronically searchable SGML corpus, which is based to a large degree on published materials, comprises some 400 literary compositions of the Isin/Larsa/Old Babylonian Period, amounting to approximately 40,000 lines of verse (excluding Emesal cult songs, literary letters, and magical incantations).
		The compositions are presented in single-line composite text format (in a standardised transliteration) with newly-prepared English prose translations, and a full bibliographical database, thereby making available for the first time a collected works of Sumerian literature.
		The corpus comprises: (1) an information database; (2) transliterations of 13 ancient literary catalogues; (3) composite texts of 409 literary compositions; (4) new translations of all the composite texts.

		The text data are separated into directories by source (apw, nyt, xie); within each source, data files are subdivided by year, and within each year, there is one file per date of collection.
		The sampling for this corpus covers the period from January 1996 to September 2000, inclusive, for the Xinhua text collection, and from June 1998 to September 2000, inclusive, for New York Times and Associated Press.
		However, despite our best intentions, there is unavoidable variation in the formatting of text data transmitted over these newswire services, and in a small percentage of stories, the typical cues for delimiting the TEXT content are lacking.

	LANGUAGE LEARNING article--Building a Corpus of Comprehensible Text
		The texts from the first weeks which had your LRP telling you things that required your physical response may provide isolated examples of linguistic phenomena, but they involve a relatively inauthentic use of language.
		Thus Hale recommends that along with the text, a record be preserved which attempts “to characterize as accurately as possible what the speaker was doing, or hoping to accomplish through the discourse.” It is also important to note the audience and the quality of their interaction with the speaker.
		There is much more to be said about the development of a corpus of text for linguistic and analytical purposes, but our topic here is the development of a comprehensible corpus as a language learning method.

		Corpus Linguistics is often understood as being a relatively new approach in linguistics.
		Ad-hoc corpora are collections of texts related to a specific subject used to investigate a particular language and terminology.
		Using specialized comparable corpora (collection of texts composed independently in the respective languages and put together on the basis of similarity of content, domain and communicative function) the interpreters obtain useful terminology and content information.

		The file geo is particularly difficult to compress because it contains a wide range of data values, while the file pic is highly compressible because of large amounts of white space in the picture, represented by long runs of zeros.

	Flags and Lollipops - Bioinformatics Blog: Distributed text corpus tagging
		I've been thinking about Amazon's Mechanical Turk (a scheme which gets humans to perform short, repetitive classification tasks that are easy but boring for them, but very difficult for computers) and about user driven annotation, as in the call for a gene function wiki (via Nodalpoint).
		To build up a sufficiently large corpus for biomedical related natural language parsing tasks you could develop a freely available Firefox extension - a toolbar - that appears when it thinks that you're reading an abstract.
		The extension uses AJAX to call a central server in the background and to pass the current URL, the tag and the highlighted text (along with its position in the abstract, so that we can extract some context).
