Inter-annotator agreement in spoken language annotation: Applying uα-family coefficients to discourse segmentation

2021

As databases make Corpus Linguistics a common tool for most linguists, corpus annotation becomes an increasingly important process. Corpus users do not need only raw data, but also annotated data, submitted to tagging or parsing processes through annotation protocols. One problem with corpus annotation lies in its reliability, that is, in the probability that its results can be replicable by independent researchers. Inter-annotation agreement (IAA) is the process which evaluates the probability that, applying the same protocol, different annotators reach similar results. To measure agreement, different statistical metrics are used. This study applies IAA for the first time to the Valencia E…

Sémiotique et critique de la culture

2017

Par rapport aux autres sciences humaines et à la philosophie, la sémiotique semble avoir quelque chose en plus, une capacité méta-critique. En effet, en tant qu’étude, à tous niveaux, du discours social en général, elle est également en mesure d’analyser de façon critique, grâce à ses modèles d’analyse, le discours scientifique lui-même, ainsi que le discours philosophique, en explicitant ainsi leurs conditions de possibilité et, donc, les limites historiques que rencontrent leurs fréquentes prétentions à l’universalité. Et cela, en soumettant également son propre discours à cette exigence critique. La critique sémiotique de la culture est donc toujours une mise en crise, un exercice de sus…

« La vie est belle, je ne regrette rien » : étude des slogans arborés sur les t-shirts à message pour femmes

2016

T-paidat ranskankielisillä teksteillä tai sanoilla varustettuna ovat olleet osa muotia viime aikoina. Monesti nuo kyseiset tekstit ovat saattaneet vaikuttaa hieman erikoisilta valinnoilta sellaisen ihmisen näkökannalta, joka osaa ranskaa. Ranskan kielen käyttö t-paitojen teksteissä on kuitenkin mielenkiintoinen ilmiö, jota tulisi tutkia tarkemmin. Tämän kandidaatintutkielman tarkoitus onkin kartoittaa näiden tekstien sisältöä sekä niiden luomaa mielikuvaa. Näkökulmana on se, tuovatko kyseiset lauseet tai tekstit esiin Ranskaan tai ranskalaiseen kulttuuriin liitettyjä stereotypioita tai kliseitä. Tämän tutkielman korpuksena on 30 t-paitaa, jotka on löydetty Suomessa toimivien kauppojen netti…

University Autonomy, Agenda Setting and the Construction of Agency : the case of the European University Association in the European Higher Education…

2014

This article analyses the ways in which a policy actor constructs its agency through the production of knowledge. Taking the example of the concept of ‘autonomy’ as constructed in the discourse of the European University Association (EUA), the article draws on the theory of discursive framing and agenda setting, as well as on Meyer and Jepperson's heuristic of agentic actors, to show how the practice of knowledge production can shape the European higher education policy. The article offers a contribution to the debate aiming to develop a more critical perspective on the development of the European Higher Education Area, which sees the process as constituted through the activities of, and t…
