This thesis proposal sheds light on the role of interactive machine learning and implicit user feedback for manual annotation tasks and semantic writing aid applications. First we focus on the cost-effective annotation of training data using an interactive machine learning approach by conducting an experiment for sequence tagging of German named entity recognition.

Although academic writing has been seen as an objective form of writing, recent studies have shown that it is a social interaction and not totally impersonal. In line with this view, Hyland (2002) stated also strongly linked the manifestation authorial presence across text. Included in interactional metadiscourse framework devised by (2005), self-mentions enable writers to express their beliefs...

Metadiscourse is now a widely used term in academic discourse analysis. How academics employ rhetorical devices to structure their texts, establish reader-writer interaction and stamp authorial stance regarding the conventions of disciplines, cultures, genres has been subject many studies.
