论文摘要
濒临灭绝的语言的用户努力在数字介导的世界中蓬勃发展。我们开发了一种自动化方法，用于评估ISO 639认可的每种语言在数字语言支持方面的表现。该评估是基于从143个数字工具的网站上删除支持语言的名称，以代表数字技术可以支持语言的各种方式。该方法使用Mokken量表分析来生成可解释的模型，以量化数字语言支持并在全球范围内监视它。
The users of endangered languages struggle to thrive in a digitally-mediated world. We have developed an automated method for assessing how well every language recognized by ISO 639 is faring in terms of digital language support. The assessment is based on scraping the names of supported languages from the websites of 143 digital tools selected to represent a full range of ways that digital technology can support languages. The method uses Mokken scale analysis to produce an explainable model for quantifying digital language support and monitoring it on a global scale.
