{bs,hr,sr}WaC - Web Corpora of Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian
Open accessAbstract
In this paper we present the construction process of top-level-domain web corpora of Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian. For constructing the corpora we use the Spi-derLing crawler with its associated tools adapted for simultaneous crawling and processing of text written in two scripts, Latin and Cyrillic. In addition to the mod-ified collection process we focus on two sources of noise in the resulting corpora: 1. they contain documents written in the other, closely related languages that can not be identified with standard language identification methods and 2. as most web corpora, they partially contain low-quality data not suitable for the specific research and application objectives. We approach both problems by using language mod-eling on the crawled data only, omitting the need for manually validated language samples for training. On the task of dis-criminating between closely related lan-guages we outperform the state-of-the-art Blacklist classifier reducing its error to a fourth. 1

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
