摘要

摘要本文将细粒度的语义变异性和变化与出现频率的测量相关联,以研究一个词的语义变化程度是否对它的使用频率敏感。我们表明,这种敏感性可以在短时间跨度(即20年)内检测到,基于我们对大型德语语料库的分析,允许高时间分辨率(即每月)。我们结合深度学习方法和图论的元素,在局部语义网络的帮助下测量语义的可变性和变化。我们的微观尺度分析补充了之前自然语言处理领域的宏观尺度研究,证实了高词频对词汇项目语义变化程度有负面影响的发现。我们将这种关系与范例的作用联系起来,以建立单词及其习惯用法上下文之间的形式-功能配对。

Semantic micro-dynamics as a reflex of occurrence frequency: a semantic networks approach
Abstract This article correlates fine-grained semantic variability and change with measures of occurrence frequency to investigate whether a word’s degree of semantic change is sensitive to how often it is used. We show that this sensitivity can be detected within a short time span (i.e., 20 years), basing our analysis on a large corpus of German allowing for a high temporal resolution (i.e., per month). We measure semantic variability and change with the help of local semantic networks, combining elements of deep learning methodology and graph theory. Our micro-scale analysis complements previous macro-scale studies from the field of natural language processing, corroborating the finding that high token frequency has a negative effect on the degree of semantic change in a lexical item. We relate this relationship to the role of exemplars for establishing form–function pairings between words and their habitual usage contexts.

期刊介绍: Cognitive Linguistics presents a forum for linguistic research of all kinds on the interaction between language and cognition. The journal focuses on language as an instrument for organizing, processing and conveying information. Cognitive Linguistics is a peer-reviewed journal of international scope and seeks to publish only works that represent a significant advancement to the theory or methods of cognitive linguistics, or that present an unknown or understudied phenomenon. Topics the structural characteristics of natural language categorization (such as prototypicality, cognitive models, metaphor, and imagery); the functional principles of linguistic organization, as illustrated by iconicity; the conceptual interface between syntax and semantics; the experiential background of language-in-use, including the cultural background; the relationship between language and thought, including matters of universality and language specificity.
