Jonathan Dunn, Andrea Nini
This paper asks whether a distinction between production-based and perception-based grammar induction influences either (i) the growth curve of grammars and lexicons or (ii) the si…
Global Syntactic Variation in Seven Languages: Towards a Computational Dialectology
Jonathan Dunn
The goal of this paper is to provide a complete representation of regional linguistic variation on a global scale. To this end, the paper focuses on removing three constraints that…
Finding Variants for Construction-Based Dialectometry: A Corpus-Based Approach to Regional CxGs
Jonathan Dunn
This paper develops a construction-based dialectometry capable of identifying previously unknown constructions and measuring the degree to which a given construction is subject to…
Mapping Languages and Demographics with Georeferenced Corpora
Jonathan Dunn, Ben Adams
This paper evaluates large georeferenced corpora, taken from both web-crawled and social media sources, against ground-truth population and language-census datasets. The goal is to…
Mapping Languages: The Corpus of Global Language Use
Jonathan Dunn
This paper describes a web-based corpus of global language use with a focus on how this corpus can be used for data-driven language mapping. First, the corpus provides a representa…
Modeling the Complexity and Descriptive Adequacy of Construction Grammars
Jonathan Dunn
This paper uses the Minimum Description Length paradigm to model the complexity of CxGs (operationalized as the encoding size of a grammar) alongside their descriptive adequacy (op…
