Presentation

     Our purpose is to provide a forum for discussion on all aspects of
     learning language in logic.
     It is the follow-up of the previous LLL workshops held in 1999 in
     Bled, Slovenia, and in 2000 in Lisboa, Portugal.

     The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers who are
     working on learning from text, while emphasizing the logic-based
     learning techniques and algorithms.

     We strongly encourage contributions concerning semantic analysis
     of natural languages, describing logic-based learning techniques
     alternative to ILP, or solving tasks for other languages than
     English.

     These techniques include but are not limited to:

        * Combinations of approaches and multi-strategy learning
        * Instance-based and clustering approaches in relational
          learning
        * Scalability issues (applying logic-based methods to
          large data sets)
        * Logical approaches to statistical NLP
        * Higher-order logic for LLL
        * Handling very complex terms
        * Collaborative and interactive learning

        * Shallow parsing
        * Grammar learning
        * Learning subcategorisation frames
        * Part-of-speech tagging
        * Morphosyntactic tagging
        * Morphological analysis
        * Information indexing, filtering, retrieval, extraction
        * Text classification methods
        * Question answering
        * Learning ontologies, thesauri and lexicon
        * Extracting predicate-argument structure

     The workshop will be two half days, including 1 invited talk,
     paper presentations, and possibly a session on works in progress.

     Authors should indicate on the first page that they submit to both
     ILP and LLL conferences. Accepted papers related to logic appear
     in proceedings of ILP 2001 conference.

     Works in progress will be published in a separate working notes.

Submissions

     Please submit by sending electronically to lll01 at fi.muni.cz:

        * an abstract (title, authors, keywords, summary) for
          April, 20.
        * a full paper (PS or PDF format) up to 12 pages in
          LNCS/LNAI Springer style for April, 23.

     Submission deadline of works in progress will be announced.
