Call for papers: GLOBALEX 2016: Lexicographic Resources for Human Language Technology



Full day workshop at LREC2016 | Portorož, Slovenia | May 24, 2016



Submission deadline: February 15, 2016 (see also Important dates below)



GLOBALEX 2016 Website http://ailab.ijs.si/globalex/



GLOBALEX 2016 constitutes the first-ever joint initiative by the five major continental lexicography associations – AFRILEX, ASIALEX, AUSTRALEX, DSNA, EURALEX – and the international conference on electronic lexicography – eLex – and is a step in forming GLOBALEX, a global constellation for cross-continental, regional, local, topical and special interest communities concerned with lexicography.

The workshop aims to explore knowledge sharing and cooperation among members and with others, bridge over gaps in different research fields and communities, and set global standards for the creation, evaluation, dissemination and usage of lexicographic resources and solutions and for the interoperability of lexicography with HLT and other disciplines in the academe and industry worldwide. It will include papers and software demonstrations as well as a round table, regarding lexicography and



** globalization and digitization

** language learning and translation

** NLP and corpora

** terminology

** the Multilingual Digital Single Market

** Linguistic Linked (Open) Data, the Semantic Web, Artificial Intelligence

Identify, Describe and Share your LRs!

Describing your LRs in the LRE Map is now a normal practice in the submission procedure of LREC (introduced in 2010 and adopted by other conferences). To continue the efforts initiated at LREC 2014 about “Sharing LRs” (data, tools, web-services, etc.), authors will have the possibility,  when submitting a paper, to upload LRs in a special LREC repository.  This effort of sharing LRs, linked to the LRE Map for their description, may become a new “regular” feature for conferences in our field, thus contributing to creating a common repository where everyone can deposit and share data.

As scientific work requires accurate citations of referenced work so as to allow the community to understand the whole context and also replicate the experiments conducted by other researchers, LREC 2016 endorses the need to uniquely Identify LRs through the use of the International Standard Language Resource Number (ISLRN, www.islrn.org<http://www.islrn.org>), a Persistent Unique Identifier to be assigned to each Language Resource. The assignment of ISLRNs to LRs cited in LREC papers  will be offered at submission time.
