Language Technology for a Multilingual Europe
Short Title: lt-europe
Date: 27-Sep-2011 - 27-Sep-2011
Location: Hamburg, Germany
Contact Person: Andreas Witt
Meeting Email: < click here to access email >
Web Site: http://tinyurl.com/43zb8z4
Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics
Call Deadline: 15-May-2011
Meeting Description:
The workshop aims at bringing various groups together who are
concerned with the broad topic of 'Language Technology for a
Multilingual Europe'. This encompasses on the one hand representatives
from research and development in the field of language technologies
and on the other hand users from quite diverse areas. Two examples of
the application of language technology is (automatic / machine)
translation, and processing of texts from the humanities with methods
from language technology, like automatic topic indexing, text mining,
integrating numerous texts and additional information across
languages, etc.
These kinds of application areas and research and development in
language technology have in common that they rely on resources
(lexica, corpora, grammars, ontologies etc.), or that they produce
these resources. A multilingual Europe, being supported by language
technology, is only possible if an adequate, interoperable
infrastructure of resources, including the related tooling, is
available for all European languages.
In addition it is necessary that the aforementioned and other
communities of developers and users of language technology stand as
one, homogeneous community. Only in this way it will be possible to
assure the long term political acceptance of the topic 'language
technology' in Europe.
Call for Papers:
The workshop aims at bringing research and development from academia
and industry together, to discuss the aforementioned technical and
political prerequisites for language technology in Europe. Submissions
may touch on the following or other aspects of this overall topic:
- Research and development of language technology in various areas
(Human Language Technology, ICT, eHumanities, etc.)
- Infrastructure for resources in language technology
- Prerequisites for interoperability of language technology based applications
- Language technology and standardization
- 'Political perspectives' about requirements and the usefulness of
language technology, from the perspective of research, industry and
various user communities
Submissions:
The evaluation of abstracts for posters will be anonymous. Hence, the
authors should not be mentioned directly in the abstract. Submissions
for system demonstrations need not to be anonymous.
Length and format: max. 2 pages in 11pt (without references), in PDF format
