DGfS 2024 — 46th Annual Meeting of the German Linguistic Society
28 Feb 2024 - 01 Mar 2024 • Bochum, Germany
Abstract:
Figurative and non-literal language, such as metaphor, metonymy, or personification, poses a special challenge for computational analysis, since these expressions are not used with their usual, ordinary meanings, as represented in corpus data or recorded in lexical resources, but with different, derived meanings. We aim to bring together computational linguists working on the automatic analysis of non-literal language. A special focus will be on non-conventionalized usages, such as novel metaphors or innovative forms of metonymy. In addition, we are particularly interested in approaches applicable to languages other than English, for example low-resource languages or domains.
Topics:
Computational approaches to metaphor & figurative language
