CLARIN-CH Trainings 2025: Introductory Session

March 10 @ 3:30 pm - 5:00 pm

This introductory session of our CLARIN-CH Training Sessions 2025 will provide an overview of the CLARIN-CH ecosystem of infrastructures, highlighting their role in supporting research involving language resources and language technology. Participants will gain insights into the various infrastructures available within CLARIN-CH and how they facilitate Open Research Data (ORD) practices in language research. Each of the infrastructures will be further addressed, both from a theoretical and a hands-on perspective, in dedicated sessions during March-June 2025.

The Zoom link will be sent to participants upon registration: Sign up for the training sessions

Topics covered in the introductory session:

1. What is CLARIN-CH?

2. The Importance of ORD and FAIR in Language Research

  • Open Science, Open Research Data (ORD) and FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data
  • How ORD and FAIR practices enhance reproducibility, trust, collaboration and data sharing (e.g. linking your research data to your scientific paper)
  • Hands-on: analysis of case studies

3. Overview of the CLARIN-CH ecosystem of infrastructures

  • The LiRI Corpus Platform
  • The swissdox@LiRI media database
  • ZHAW Swiss-AL
  • Language Repository of Switzerland (LaRS) and the SWISSUbase repository
  • The CLARIN-CH Documentation Platform
  • Introduction to key ORD projects, such as UpLORD and FAIR-FI-LD, and their main outcomes:

– Metadata interoperability and harvesting by CLARIN Virtual Language Observatory
– Curation workflow by LaRS team
– Standard data formats
– CLARIN Federated Content Search technology
– Videoscope @ USI

4. Challenges and solutions of ORD and FAIR for Language Data

  • Handling sensitive and complex linguistic data, including ethical and legal considerations
  • Big volume of data
  • Lack of training and time for appropriate data management and data curation
  • Encouraging researchers and institutions to engage with CLARIN-CH

Who should attend?

This session is designed for researchers using language data, irrespective of scientific discipline, sub-field of linguistics or approach, as well as data stewards, who want to learn more about the CLARIN-CH research data ecosystem and its tools.

By the end of the session, participants will have a clearer understanding of how to navigate the CLARIN-CH infrastructures, apply ORD principles effectively, and address challenges in language data management. This will make your life much easier when publishing your data and when write your DMP.
