From Shakespeare to Twitter: What are Language Styles all about?

WS 2017  ·  Wei Xu ·

As natural language processing research is growing and largely driven by the availability of data, we expanded research from news and small-scale dialog corpora to web and social media. User-generated data and crowdsourcing opened the door for investigating human language of various styles with more statistical power and real-world applications. In this position/survey paper, I will review and discuss seven language styles that I believe to be important and interesting to study: influential work in the past, challenges at the present, and potential impact for the future.
