Linguistic Distances
نویسندگان
چکیده
In many theoretical and applied areas of computational linguistics researchers operate with a notion of linguistic distance or, conversely, linguistic similarity, which is the focus of the present workshop. While many CL areas make frequent use of such notions, it has received little focused attention, an honorable exception being Lebart & Rajman (2000). This workshop brings a number of these strands together, highlighting a number of common issues.

Non-linguists’ judgments of linguistic distances between dialects
This study explores the relative contribution of geographic and objective linguistic distances to the perceived and estimated linguistic distances between Norwegian dialects as judged by non-linguists. The perceived linguistic distances were quantified by playing recordings of fifteen Norwegian dialects to groups of subjects from the same fifteen places and having them judge the linguistic dist...
متن کاملEvaluating the Relationship between Linguistic and Geographic Distances using a 3D Visualization
In this paper we discuss how linguistic and geographic distances can be related using a 3D visualization. We will convert linguistic data for locations along the German-Dutch border to linguistic distances that can be compared directly to geographic distances. This enables us to visualize linguistic distances as "real" distances with the use of the third dimension available in 3D modelling soft...
متن کاملLinguistic Diversity and Redistribution
This paper investigates the effect of linguistic diversity on redistribution in a broad crosssection of countries. We use the notion of “linguistic distances” and show that the commonly used fractionalization index, which ignores linguistic distances, yields insignificant results. However, once distances between languages are accounted for, linguistic diversity has both a statistically and econ...
متن کاملA model of consensus in group decision making under linguistic assessments
This paper presents a consensus model in group decision making under linguistic assessments. It is based on the use of linguistic preferences to provide individuals' opinions, and on the use of fuzzy majority of consensus, represented by means of a linguistic quantifier. Several linguistic consensus degrees and linguistic distances are defined, acting on three levels. The consensus degrees indi...

متن کاملComputing Distances between Decision Makers Using Hesitant Fuzzy Linguistic Term Sets
Given a finite totally ordered set of linguistic terms, the operations intersection and connected union provide a lattice structure to the set of hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets. In this framework, hesitant fuzzy linguistic descriptions of a given set of alternatives are considered. A distance between hesitant fuzzy linguistic descriptions is introduced based on the properties of the lattic...
