</a></u></font>Conference presentation<br>
For more than a decade, the TIA group has studied the large field of
<br>
terminological questions, confronting and combining various disciplines:
<br>
Linguistics, Natural Language Processing, Artificial Intelligence, <br>
Information Sciences, Knowledge Engineering, etc.<br>
Knowledge is memorised and transmitted in documents. In scientific or
<br>
technical fields (medicine, aeronautics, education, etc), terms play an
<br>
important role in ensuring the precision of information.<br>
The rise of the internet and globalisation have increased the sharing of
<br>
written documents between cultures and thus, between languages, but also
<br>
between fields. This phenomenon creates new problems which emerge when
<br>
exogeneous knowledge is appropriated by a community gathered around a
<br>
topic.<br>
TIA 2007 will be particularly focused on the migration of terms which can
<br>
be understood as the passage from a language to another, from a domain to
<br>
another, from an application to another, or as an evolution through time.
<br>
The problem which underlies this question is the instability of terms and
<br>
has been left unconsidered in order to give precedence to the needs for
<br>
standardization.<br>
Communications may tackle theoretical questions or consider
methodological <br>
aspects. Interdisciplinary studies which stress the possible convergences
<br>
and co-operations between various disciplines around terminological
<br>
questions are particularly welcome. <br>
<br>
Topics of the conference <br>
You are invited to propose an original communication having a
theoretical, <br>
methodological or practical range, on one of the following topics (non
<br>
exhaustive list):<br>
- Semantic theories and the terminology compared to textual linguistics
<br>
and ontologies domains <br>
- Methods to localise terminologies evolution (diachronic aspects, <br>
interlingual transfers…) <br>
- Localisation of terminological evolutions within cultures or different
<br>
communities (scientific, technical) and role of terminological resources
<br>
in this localisation <br>
- Confrontation of terminological terminologies / terminological
resources <br>
/ ontological resources issued from different languages, communities,
<br>
periods <br>
- Automatic or manual constitution of terminologies from mono or <br>
multilingual corpora <br>
- Methods to automatically structure terminologies (identification of
<br>
relations between terms, distribution in fields) <br>
- Use of terminologies to constitute and structure ontologies <br>
- Methods and criteria to evaluate and validate terminologies <br>
- Reusability, standardization, comparison and fusion of terminological
<br>
resources <br>
- Difficulties to build multilingual terminologies <br>
- Applications exploiting terminological resources (semantic web, <br>
management of documentary flows, information retrieval, document <br>
classification, technological survey, question and answer…).<br>
<br>
The TIA group
(<a href="http://tia.loria.fr/" eudora="autourl"><font color="#0000FF"><u>http://tia.loria.fr/</a></u></font>)
organises this conference which <br>
follows conferences TIA'95 (Villetaneuse), TIA'97 (Toulouse), TIA'99
<br>
(Nantes), TIA'01 (Nancy), TIA' 03 (Strasbourg) and TIA'05 (Rouen). <br>
Founded <br>
under the aegis of the AFIA in 1994, now AFIA/GdR-I3 group, this group
<br>
gathers researchers in Linguistics and Artificial Intelligence. The
<br>
received papers will be submitted to an international review committee
<br>
constituted by members of the TIA group and by experts of the concerned
<br>
fields (3 reviews per paper). The papers could be approved as oral <br>
communication or poster.<br>
