AUTOMATIC TEXT SIMPLIFICATION: Methods and Applications in the<br>
Multilingual Society<br>
<br>
Workshop organised in conjunction with COLING 2014<br>

ABOUT<br>
<br>
The remarkable development of language technology tools in recent years<br>
in terms of robustness, computational speed and volume of processed<br>
data, together with the increasing number of languages covered, made<br>
possible their usage not only for specific research applications, but<br>
also for real world applications which prove useful in everyday life.<br>
Automatic correction of text, machine translation, extraction of<br>
important information and hands-free devices are just some of these<br>
applications. Language technology now has the maturity to be used for<br>
addressing societal challenges such as helping people with disabilities,<br>
the elderly and migrants.<br>
<br>
However, due to the ambiguity and complexity of natural language, its<br>
automatic processing is still very challenging and benefits from<br>
processing shorter and less ambiguous information. The same is true for<br>
people who have difficulties understanding text due to disabilities, or<br>
who have to read texts in a language they do not have a good command of.<br>
In all these cases, automatic text simplification can prove to be very<br>
useful.<br>
<br>
In contrast to controlled languages, which practically create a<br>
sublanguage by imposing constraints on the grammar rules, discourse<br>
style, number of words/sentence etc., text simplification eliminates or<br>
replaces parts of sentences or paragraphs, or even reformulates them<br>
according to specific requirements of the target user groups. Among the<br>
most frequent techniques are: lexical substitution, verb forms<br>
replacement (for morphologically rich languages), word order<br>
adjustments, deletion of subordinate clauses, replacement of anaphoric<br>
pronouns by their reference, usage of synonym expressions with higher<br>
frequency as well as compound splitting.<br>
<br>
This workshop intends to bring together scientists working in a variety<br>
of fields in which text simplification can be applied, computational<br>
linguists interested in the research problems of text simplification and<br>
of course users who can benefit from the simplified texts.<br>
<br>
The innovative aspect of this workshop will be the discussion on text<br>
simplification from two perspectives: On the one hand, how computational<br>
linguistics applications which simplify texts can be used by people in<br>
real world situation, and on the other hand, how to simplify the input<br>
for other NLP-based applications in order to improve their accuracy. We<br>
also intend to develop a roadmap of activities, tools and resources on<br>
text simplification from a multilingual perspective. A special attention<br>
will be paid to contributions describing automatic text simplification<br>
for less-resourced languages.<br>
<br>
The workshop will be organised in conjunction with COLING 2014 on 23rd<br>
or 24th August in Dublin, Ireland.<br>
<br>
TOPICS<br>
<br>
Papers are invited on the following directions:<br>
<br>
1. The linguistic challenges in text simplification<br>
- linguistic characteristics of text simplification for specific<br>
purposes (e.g. simplification for people with specific<br>
disabilities)<br>
- creation of linguistic resources for text simplification<br>
- linguistic analysis of language phenomena relevant to text<br>
simplification<br>
<br>
2. Automatic Text Simplification for Societal Needs<br>
- for people with disabilities (e.g. autism, dyslexia, etc.)<br>
- for second language learners<br>
- for elderly people<br>
- for better understanding of well defined genres of texts (e.g.<br>
political texts, medical texts, etc.)<br>
<br>
3. Automatic Text Simplification for Language Technology<br>
- better performance of language technology tools (e.g. MT,<br>
summarization, respeaking)<br>
- domain adaptation of existing simplification tools<br>
- adaptation of existing simplification tools to other languages<br>
<br>
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:<br>
- User scenarios and requirements from different social categories<br>
- Language Tools for Text Simplification<br>
- Linguistic challenges to:<br>
* perform various levels of simplification (separately or in a<br>
combined mode): phonetic, lexical, morphological, syntactic,<br>
semantic<br>
* process different types of clauses (e.g. illative, concessive,<br>
conditional, consecutive, adjectival, adverbial, etc.)<br>
* identify and remove semantic obstacles for specific categories<br>
of users<br>
* perform acronym/abbreviation expansion<br>
* address the problem of word sense disambiguation<br>
* identify problematic temporal expressions<br>
* process negation<br>
* detect affective language<br>
* identify non-literal language and metaphors<br>

BACKGROUND<br>
*******************************************************<br>
<br>
Research in automatic Subjectivity and Sentiment Analysis (SSA), as<br>
subtasks of Affective Computing and Natural Language Processing (NLP),<br>
has flourished in the past years. The growth in interest in these tasks<br>
was motivated by the birth and rapid expansion of the Social Web that<br>
made it possible for people all over the world to share, comment or<br>
consult content on any given topic. In this context, opinions,<br>
sentiments and emotions expressed in Social Media texts have been shown<br>
to have a high influence on the social and economic behaviour worldwide.<br>
SSA systems are highly relevant to many real-world applications (e.g.<br>
marketing, eGovernance, business intelligent, social analysis) and also<br>
to many tasks in Natural Language Processing (NLP) -- information<br>
extraction, question answering, textual entailment, to name just a few.<br>
The importance of this field has been proven by the high number of<br>
approaches proposed in research in the past decade, as well as by the<br>
interest that it raised from other disciplines (Economics, Sociology,<br>
Psychology) and the applications that were created using its technology.<br>
In spite of the growing body of research in the area in the past years,<br>
dealing with affective phenomena in text has proven to be a complex,<br>
interdisciplinary problem that remains far from being solved. Its<br>
challenges include the need to address the issue from different<br>
perspectives and at different levels, depending on the characteristics<br>
of the textual genre, the language(s) treated and the final application<br>
for which the analysis is done.<br>
<br>
*******************************************************<br>
ENVISAGED SCOPE OF WASSA 2014<br>
*******************************************************<br>
<br>
The aim of the 5th Workshop on Computational Approaches to<br>
Subjectivity, Sentiment and Social Media Analysis (WASSA 2014) is to<br>
continue the line of the previous editions, bringing together<br>
researchers in Computational Linguistics working on Subjectivity and<br>
Sentiment Analysis and researchers working on interdisciplinary aspects<br>
of affect computation from text. Additionally, starting with WASSA 2013,<br>
we extended the focus to Social Media phenomena and the impact of<br>
affect-related phenomena in this context. In this new proposed edition,<br>
we would like to encourage the submission of long and short research and<br>
demo papers including, but not restricted to the following topics<br>
related to subjectivity and sentiment analysis:<br>
. Resources for subjectivity, sentiment and social media analysis;<br>
(semi-)automatic corpora generation and annotation<br>
. Opinion retrieval, extraction, categorization, aggregation and<br>
summarization<br>
. Trend detection in social media using subjectivity and sentiment<br>
analysis techniques<br>
. Data linking through social networks based on affect-related NLP<br>
methods<br>
. Impact of affective data from social media<br>
. Mass opinion estimation based on NLP and statistical models<br>
. Online reputation management<br>
. Topic and sentiment studies and applications of topic-sentiment<br>
analysis<br>
. Domain, topic and genre dependency of sentiment analysis<br>
. Ambiguity issues and word sense disambiguation of subjective language<br>
. Pragmatic analysis of the opinion mining task<br>
. Use of Semantic Web technologies for subjectivity and sentiment<br>
analysis<br>
. Improvement of NLP tasks using subjectivity and/or sentiment analysis<br>
. Intrinsic and extrinsic evaluations subjectivity and sentiment<br>
analysis<br>
. Subjectivity, sentiment and emotion detection in social networks<br>
. Classification of stance in dialogues<br>
. Applications of sentiment and social media analysis systems<br>
<br>
<br>
In addition, in the light of the fact that different sentiment analysis<br>
systems have been proposed and showcased in the past years,<br>
we feel there is a growing need to make users familiar with these<br>
systems and have them employed for building an end application.<br>
To this aim, we would like to organize a "Hackathon" (please see details<br>
below).<br>
<br>
*******************************************************<br>
SENTIMENT ANALYSIS SYSTEMS HACKATHON<br>
*******************************************************<br>
<br>
In the light of the fact that different sentiment analysis systems have<br>
been proposed and showcased in the past years, we feel there is a<br>
growing need to make other researchers and users familiar with these<br>
systems and have them employ them for building an end application.<br>
The Hackathon word stands for "Hacking Marathon", and its purpose is to<br>
introduce some.<br>
The activity will be open to all the people who will sign up for the<br>
workshop.<br>
We plan to organize a half a day session, in the first half presenting<br>
the participating systems and their use and creating teams for<br>
"application" development and leaving the second half of the day for<br>
working on the systems and presenting the results. We plan to give the<br>
participants the possibility to vote on the best application created and<br>
reward the winner with a gadget.<br>
