论文摘要
这项研究提出了美国最高法院口头辩论的发言人之间的转弯语料库。每个转弯变更都被带有“竞争”的人类注释者在美国具有法律经验的“竞争性”标签。我们分析了言语特征，交流性质以及演讲者的性别和法律作用之间的关系。最后，我们证明这些模型可用于预测以中等成功的交换标签。交流性质的自动分类表明，未来对口头论据进行转折的研究可能依赖更大的未标记的语料库。
This study presents a corpus of turn changes between speakers in U.S. Supreme Court oral arguments. Each turn change is labeled on a spectrum of "cooperative" to "competitive" by a human annotator with legal experience in the United States. We analyze the relationship between speech features, the nature of exchanges, and the gender and legal role of the speakers. Finally, we demonstrate that the models can be used to predict the label of an exchange with moderate success. The automatic classification of the nature of exchanges indicates that future studies of turn-taking in oral arguments can rely on larger, unlabeled corpora.
