WORKSHOP
<br>
<br>
The workshop continues a biennial series of workshops on
<br>
natural language generation that has been running since 1987. Previous
<br>
European workshops have been held at Toulouse, Budapest and Aberdeen.
<br>
The series provides a regular forum for presentation of research in
this
<br>
rea, both for NLG specialists and for researchers from other areas.
<br>
<br>
<br>
TOPICS
<br>
<br>
We welcome papers on formal, corpus-based, implementational
<br>
and analytical work on conventional NLG topics (content selection,
<br>
planing, realisation, etc), and especially papers with a focus on the
<br>
following themes:
<br>
<br>
* NLG workflows and architectures
<br>
* NLG for real-world applications
<br>
* Multilingual NLG
<br>
* Use of ontologies in NLG
<br>
* NLG in linguistically motivated frameworks
<br>
* Statistical processing for NLG
<br>
* Information organization for planning and NLG
<br>
* Evaluation of NLG systems
<br>
<br>
We also welcome discussion on the challenges that these viewpoints
<br>
pose for generation systems and applications, as well as new ideas
<br>
and solutions for general frameworks. Especially, we invite research
<br>
papers and system descriptions on applying natural language generation
<br>
in solutions to real-world problems.
