 Nicolás Raths (Mainz): »Reading and annotating concordances with AI:
  A pilot study« Abstract: Manual annotation of concordances is (argua
 bly) the most accurate way of coding linguistic data. However\, the ac
 curacy and velocity of human annotation may suffer depending on the nu
 mber of factors\, how interconnected these are\, which aspect of gramm
 ar they correspond to and how far away from the keyword these are expr
 essed in the sentence&#8230\; Fully automatized systems\, on the other
  hand\, allow for large quantitative analysis\, but they are dependent
  on processing power\, training data\, fine-tuning\, etc. and often in
 volve monetary cost. This poster presents the results of a pilot study
  which explores the potential of a low-cost AI method to improve the s
 peed and accuracy of the human reading and annotation process. As a tr
 ial context\, it uses if-conditionals. An exemplary concordance line c
 ontaining an if-conditional may look like (1) in an untagged corpus. T
 he first challenge is to spot the actual if-clause and corresponding m
 ain clause\, which then has to be annotated for factors such as mood\,
  tense and aspect in the if-clause\, as well as in the main clause\, t
 he semantics of the conditional (e.g. habitual\, hypothetical or count
 erfactual) and position of the if-clause (pre-posed vs. post-posed). (
