    <description descriptionType="Abstract">&lt;p&gt;This data collection contains the Swedish test data for &lt;a href="https://languagechange.org/semeval"&gt;SemEval 2020 Task 1: Unsupervised Lexical Semantic Change Detection:&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;- a Swedish text corpus pair (`corpus1/`, `corpus2/`)&lt;br&gt;
- 31 lemmas which have been annotated for their lexical semantic change between the two corpora (`targets.txt`)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We sample from the KubHist2 corpus, digitized by the National Library of Sweden, and available through the Spr&amp;aring;kbanken corpus infrastructure Korp (&lt;a href="https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Markus_Forsberg/publication/266352576_Korp_-_the_corpus_infrastructure_of_Sprakbanken/links/55bf1ee008aed621de121ba3/Korp-the-corpus-infrastructure-of-Sprakbanken.pdf"&gt;Borin et al., 2012&lt;/a&gt;). The full corpus is available through a CC BY (attribution) license. Each word for which the lemmatizer in the Korp pipelien has found a lemma is replaced with the lemma. In cases where the lemmatizer cannot find a lemma, we leave the word as is (i.e., unlemmatized, no lower-casing). KubHist contains very frequent OCR errors, especially for the older data.More detail about the properties and quality of the Kubhist corpus can be found in (&lt;a href="https://www.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:1358014/FULLTEXT01.pdf#page=28"&gt;Adesam et al., 2019&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;

- time covered: 1790-1830&lt;br&gt;
- size: ~71 million tokens&lt;br&gt;
- format: lemmatized, sentence length &amp;gt; 9 (before removal of punctuation), no punctuation, sentences randomly shuffled&lt;br&gt;
- encoding: UTF-8&lt;br&gt;
- note: contains frequent OCR errors&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Corpus 2&lt;/p&gt;

- language: Swedish&lt;br&gt;
- time covered: 1895-1903&lt;br&gt;

- format: lemmatized, sentence length &amp;gt; 9 (before removal of punctuation), no punctuation, sentences randomly shuffled&lt;br&gt;
- encoding: UTF-8&lt;br&gt;

    <description descriptionType="Other">The creation of the data was supported by the project Towards Computational Lexical Semantic Change Detection funded  by a project grant from the Swedish Research Council  (2019–2022;   dnr  2018-01184). 
It has also been created as part of the effort to construct and develop a Swedish national research infrastructure in support of research based on language data. This infrastructure -- Nationella språkbanken (the Swedish National Language Bank) -- is jointly funded for the period 2018--2024 by the Swedish Research Council (grant number 2017-00626) and its 10 partner institutions.</description>
