摘要

哪些个人和企业参与者属于一个集体，谁来决定?社会学还没有很好的分析工具来解决这些问题。最近的工作是将概念的概率表示和概率分类应用于社会学研究，这为在度量成员关系方面取得进展提供了机会。事实证明，基于概率认知的重新表述揭示了语言模型和自然语言处理之间意想不到的联系。特别是，领先的概率分类器BERT提供了新的和强大的方法来度量核心概念。

Measuring Memberships in Collectives in Light of Developments in Cognitive Science and Natural-Language Processing

Which individuals and corporate actors belong in a collective, and who decides? Sociology has not had good analytical tools for addressing these questions. Recent work that adapts probabilistic representations of concepts and probabilistic categorization to sociological research opens opportunities for making progress on the measurement of memberships. It turns out that the probabilistic cognitive-based reformulation reveals unexpected connections to language models and natural-language processing. In particular, the leading probabilistic classifier BERT provides new and powerful ways to measure core concepts.
