Automatic Language Identification of written texts is a well-established area of research in Computational Linguistics. Stateof-the-art algorithms often rely on n-gram character models to identify the correct language of texts, with good results seen for European languages. In this paper we propose the use of a character n-gram model and a word n-gram language model for the automatic classifica...

Language identification (LI) is an important task in natural language processing. Several machine learning approaches have been proposed for addressing this problem, but most of them assume relatively long and well written texts. We propose a graph-based N-gram approach for LI called LIGA which targets relatively short and ill-written texts. The results of our experimental study show that LIGA ...

We introduce a language resource for Spanish, DysList, composed of a list of unique errors extracted from a collection of texts written by people with dyslexia. Each of the errors was annotated with a set of characteristics as well as visual and phonetic features. To the best of our knowledge this is the largest resource of this kind, especially given the difficulty of finding texts written by ...

AO3 Show understanding of the relationships between texts and the contexts in which they were written. AO3 is the understanding of the relationship between the ideas in the text and the contexts of the text, such as: • the context in which the text was written • the context within which the text is set (location/social structures and features/ cultural contexts/periods in time) • literary conte...

In this paper we look at a task in historical linguistics and the study of language development, namely that of identifying the time when a text was written. The novelty is that we evaluate our classifier and our selected features on literary texts having their action placed in the past and written so as to give off the impression of the respective epoch. We investigate several types of feature...

The history of written Latvian dates back to the late 16th century, when both Protestantism and Catholicism reigned. Although the first physically available book in Latvian – Catechismvs Catholicorum – was published not in Latvia, but in Vilnius, the capital of neighbouring Catholic Lithuanian, in 1585, texts in Latvian and copies thereof were distributed in Riga much earlier. Martin Luther’s i...
