OBJECTIVE: provide an international forum for graduate students to
meet, exchange ideas, and present their research.  The conference will
consist of short presentations by graduate students as well as talks
by invited speakers.
 
PRESENTATION FORMAT: student presentations will be 30 minutes long and
may be given in French or English. The proceedings will be published.
 
THEME: A special session will focus on the theme of "problems specific
to the treatment of French".  Articles may be submitted to either the
theme session or the general session.
 
TOPICS OF INTEREST: Articles may describe research in any area of
computational linguistics.  The conference will be organized around,
but not limited to, five major topics: speech (analysis, synthesis,
etc); treatment of multiple languages (machine translation, text
alignment, text generation, etc); computational linguistic theory
(computational morphology, phonology, syntax or semantics, discourse
analysis, etc); statistical methods in natural language processing
(Markov models, decision trees, etc); the lexicon (lexicography,
terminology, etc).
