摘要:

语言是一种社会现象,语言的社会性决定了语言的变异性。最近,计算语言学(CL)社区对语言的社会维度产生了浓厚的兴趣。在这篇文章中,我们提出了一个调查的新兴领域的“计算社会语言学”,反映了这种增加的兴趣。我们的目标是提供一个全面的概述CL研究的社会语言学主题,具有主题,如语言和社会身份之间的关系,在社会交往中的语言使用和多语言交际。此外,我们展示了所涉及的研究社区之间的协同作用的潜力,通过展示在CL中广泛使用的大规模数据驱动的方法如何补充现有的社会语言学研究,以及社会语言学如何告知和挑战CL研究中采用的方法和假设。我们希望传达两个社区之间更密切合作的可能好处,并以讨论公开挑战作为结束。

英文摘要:

Language is a social phenomenon and variation is inherent to its social nature. Recently, there has been a surge of interest within the computational linguistics (CL) community in the social dimension of language. In this article we present a survey of the emerging field of "Computational Sociolinguistics" that reflects this increased interest. We aim to provide a comprehensive overview of CL research on sociolinguistic themes, featuring topics such as the relation between language and social identity, language use in social interaction and multilingual communication. Moreover, we demonstrate the potential for synergy between the research communities involved, by showing how the large-scale data-driven methods that are widely used in CL can complement existing sociolinguistic studies, and how sociolinguistics can inform and challenge the methods and assumptions employed in CL studies. We hope to convey the possible benefits of a closer collaboration between the two communities and conclude with a discussion of open challenges.
