RusLan-M: Technical Design and Processing Pipeline of a Longitudinal Multimedia Corpus of Russian Child Speech
P. 338–344.
This paper presents RusLan-M (v.1.0), an open-access longitudinal multimedia corpus of spontaneous early child speech in Russian, designed for corpus-based research. The corpus consists of video recordings of naturalistic childcaregiver interaction, transcribed and annotated in the CHAT format and publicly available in the CHILDES database. We describe the process of corpus creation, data collection, cleaning and anonymization procedures, as well as transcription and annotation principles. The current version comprises 41 hours of recordings and over 35,000 child utterances, enabling the investigation of longitudinal trajectories of lexical growth, morphological development, syntactic complexity, and patterns of child-directed speech in Russian. Future development directions include corpus expansion with additional longitudinal datasets, systematic manual validation of automatic annotation tiers, and further integration of automatic alignment and annotation tools (BatchAlign2) adapted to Russian child speech. RusLan-M is designed for research on language acquisition, corpus linguistics, and the development of computational methods for morphologically rich languages.

In the 21st century, the number of translations of Vietnamese literature into Russian has significantly decreased. While professional translators were involved in translations during the Soviet period, at present most translations of Vietnamese works into Russian are carried out by teachers of the Vietnamese language at Russian universities. A new trend has also become the ...

This paper examines a specific case of fictive motion conceptualization—non-standard motion metaphors identified in texts from the Kazakh subcorpus of the Russian Learner Corpus (http://www.web-corpora.net/RLC). The texts were written by students from several universities in Almaty who are native speakers of Kazakh (L1) and second-language speakers of Russian (L2). Our study focuses on three aspects ...

Comparative question answering is one of the question answering subtasks which requires not only to choose between two (or more) objects, but also to explain the choice and support it with arguments. ChatGPT-like models are able nowadays to generate a coherent answer in a natural language, however, they are not fully reliable as they are ...

Existing behavioral, neuropsychological and functional neuroimaging data suggest that at least two major cognitive strategies are used for new word learning: fast mapping (FM) via context-dependent inference and explicit encoding (EE) via direct instruction. However, these distinctions remain debated at both behavioral and neurophysiological levels, not least due to confounds related to diverging experimental settings. Furthermore, the neural dynamics ...

This study aimed at systematically assessing the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on novel word learning. Using a sample of 288 healthy volunteers, we modulated tDCS stimulation regimes (anodal/cathodal/placebo), stimulated hemisphere (left/right), site (Broca/Wernicke/right-hemispheric Broca/Wernicke homologues), and assessed tDCS effects on different learning protocols: fast mapping vs. explicit encoding, with vs. without articulation. ...

An accumulating body of evidence suggests that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can be used to affect language processing, including word acquisition. There has been, however, no comprehensive study of effects of tDCS of the core language areas in relation to the main word-learning mechanisms. Two principal strategies have been posited as important for natural word acquisition: ...

It has been claimed that two major neurocognitive mechanisms – instruction-based explicit encoding (EE) and inference-driven fast mapping (FM) may be involved in rapid acquisition of novel words, but their exact neural underpinnings remain poorly understood. To address this, we trained 36 adult participants with 20 novel spoken words in an audio-visual task, carefully balanced between the EE and ...

The primary motor cortex takes part in various stages of language learning accompanied by human motor activity. However, previous studies of causal relationships between the activation of primary motor cortex and efficiency of language tasks reveal contradictory results, likely due to diverging learning environments and specific movement patterns required by different experimental designs. The goal ...

Two language learning strategies have been described as common in both children and adults: fast mapping (FM), which promotes learning from context, and explicit encoding (EE), which is provided through direct instruction. Pre - vious functional neuroimaging studies in adult learners have suggested differential neural mechanisms underlying these two major cognitive strategies, with some limited ...

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique that can alter the state of the stimulated brain area and thereby affect neurocognitive processes and resulting behavioural performance. Previous studies using tDCS to address the language function have shown disparate results, particularly with respect to language learning and word acquisition. To fill this gap, ...

The global uptake of prostate cancer (PCa) active surveillance (AS) is steadily increasing. While prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD) is an important baseline predictor of PCa progression on AS, there is a scarcity of recommendations on its use in follow-up. In particular, the best way of measuring PSAD is unclear. One approach would be to use ...

In the first half of the 15th century, the word gospodar’ appears in the title of the Grand Princes of Muscovy. In the 16th–17th centuries, gospodar’ was replaced by gosudar’. How did these terms correlate? When exactly and how did this change take place? All researchers, without exception, believed that gosudar’ is the result of a transformation of the word gospodar’, but none of them ...
