| Description | The chapter deals with word embeddings as one of the current approaches for analysing the textual data (mainly with respect to lexical semantics, pragmatics, discourse linguistics etc.). Special attention is being paid to the applicability for historical texts, with the inherently limited amount of available text sources. The Middle High German Conceptual Database (MhdBDB) is used as data source. In addition, the possibilities of making the queries based on word embeddings available within this infrastructure are briefly discussed. |
