Språkbanken's research unit develops state-of-the-art language technology and pursues theoretical and practical aims within different research areas. Our research focuses both on language technology itself (creating comprehensive, high-quality resources that are needed to develop tools and algorithms) and on questions from other disciplines.
Linguists often try to explain language change, but all our explanations are necessarily post hoc and thus difficult to evaluate. What happens if we turn to the future instead of the past and try to predict language change?
Developing tools for systematic studies of text classification
The purpose of this project is to create high-quality test sets for att enable all actors within Swedish NLP to evaluate and compare language models.

Digitization of Grierson’s Linguistic Survey of India (LSI; 1903-1927)

Improved annotations for the Korp corpus infrastructure.
We will apply corpus-driven methods as a way to expand and correct existing hand-crafted linguistic resources, and conversely we will use hand-crafted resources as additional sources of supervision when learning meaning representations automatically.
Developing automatic annotation tools for Old Swedish texts.
The aim of this project is to develop a Swedish so-called constructicon, a database of Swedish constructions.
The main aim of this research program is to advance the state of the art in language technology resources and methods for semantic processing of Swedish text, in order to provide researchers and others with more sophisticated tools for working with the information contained in large volumes of digitized text, e.g., by being able to correlate and compare the content of texts and text passages on a large scale.

En svensk medicinsk testkollektion
The goal of the SweFN++ project is to build an open-content -- i.e., freely available and modifiable -- integrated lexical resource for Swedish -- so far lacking -- to be used as a basic infrastructural component in Swedish language technology (LT) research and in the development of LT applications for Swedish.
MOLTO's goal is to develop a set of tools for translating texts between multiple languages in real time with high quality. Languages are separate modules in the tool and can be varied; prototypes covering a majority of the EU's 23 official languages will be built.
