FrAC draft on GitHub

Dear all,

as suggested last week, the HTML version of the FrAC draft is now  
deprecated (and archived under  
https://github.com/ontolex/frequency-attestation-corpus-information/blob/master/archive/index.html).  
 From now on, please edit the Markdown edition only:

https://github.com/ontolex/frequency-attestation-corpus-information/blob/master/index.md  
(view)
https://github.com/ontolex/frequency-attestation-corpus-information/edit/master/index.md  
(edit)

Next step in FrAC agenda is to update this document in accordance with the  
consensus definitions for that emerged from our discussions so far. This  
includes the introduction of a top-level class, the modelling of  
attestations and (tentatively) the treatment of absolute frequencies.  
Embeddings, similarity and collocations have not been thoroughly  
discussed, but suggestions for these are already included. Other possible  
extensions, e.g., the modelling of confidence (~ relative frequency)  
remain possible.

Best,
Christian
