Finding Variants for Construction-Based Dialectometry: A Corpus-Based Approach to Regional CxGs (2021)
The paper proposes dialectometry on whole grammars. A construction grammar (4,504 constructions) is first induced from an independent corpus (ukWac), so no variant has to be chosen in advance. Each construction's relative frequency in a sample becomes a feature, and a linear SVM predicts the region of a sample. Two…
