*Summer School in Corpus Methods*

Paris 8 University is pleased to announce their upcoming Summer Intensive
Program "Corpus Methods in Linguistics--compilation, annotation, and
quantitative analysis", to be held 5-9 June 2023.

This will be a 30h week-long course consisting of:
--morning sessions devoted to data collection, extraction and organization,
as well as DIY corpus building
--afternoon sessions focusing on statistical analysis of the data produced
during the morning sessions
--several half-day sessions on automatic annotation and manual annotation
methods

Participants will learn how to:
--formulate advanced search queries in a concordancer (e.g. TextSTAT,
AntConc)
--compile a text corpus with BootCaT
--automatically annotate a text corpus in TreeTagger
--manually annotate a text corpus in UAM CorpusTool
--measure keyword specificity and collocation strength using AntConc
--perform statistical analyses of categorical variables in R

This program is intended primarily for researchers and upper-level students
(Masters or Doctorate). Tuition will be 90€ (60€ reduced rate for students
from Paris 8).  To participate*, or request further information, please
send an email to the organizers indicating name, status (e.g. Doctoral
student, Post-doctoral researcher, Faculty) and 5 keywords describing your
research interests.

Please note that this is an international Summer School and that we will
work with corpora in English, French and possibly other languages.
Knowledge of French is thus an advantage but is not necessary.
*Pending confirmation
