  We introduce the Emergent Language Corpus Collection (ELCC): a collection of
corpora collected from open source implementations of emergent communication
systems across the literature. These systems include a variety of signalling
game environments as well as more complex tasks like a social deduction game
and embodied navigation. Each corpus is annotated with metadata describing the
characteristics of the source system as well as a suite of analyses of the
corpus (e.g., size, entropy, average message length). Currently, research
studying emergent languages requires directly running different systems which
takes time away from actual analyses of such languages, limits the variety of
languages that are studied, and presents a barrier to entry for researchers
without a background in deep learning. The availability of a substantial
collection of well-documented emergent language corpora, then, will enable new
directions of research which focus their purview on the properties of emergent
languages themselves rather than on experimental apparatus.
