INF - Information infrastructure

The CRC Prominence in Language makes use of various sources of linguistic evidence and methods of analysis: data from neuro- and psycholinguistic experiments, data from elicitation tasks, production data from spontaneous speech and existing corpora, as well as results from tests assessing the acceptability of selected constructions. Project INF supports synergy between all CRC projects in the use of these methods. The project also takes the lead in ensuring data accountability and sustainability.
