COLING-ACL '98 WORKSHOP

+ Processing of Dependency-based Grammars +
+ --------------------------------------- +
August 15, 1998
Universite de Montreal
Montreal, Quebec, Canada
http://tornade.ere.umontreal.ca/~polguera/Eng/DGworkshop.html
http://coling-acl98.iro.umontreal.ca
This one-day workshop will be a meeting point for researchers interested in
the implementation of Dependency-based Grammars (DGs). It will be a forum
for presenting different theoretical approaches to DGs, as well as
strategies adopted for their implementation. Although the focus of this
workshop is on DGs, it also aims at establishing connections between
different approaches to the modeling and implementation of grammatical
phenomena. Tou are invited to submit papers on the following, or related,
topics:
Theoretical aspects
- correspondence between semantic and syntactic structures;
- correspondence between syntactic structures and the surface text;
- interaction between lexical and grammatical knowledge;
- comparison between different DG approaches.
Implementations
- natural language generation with DGs;
- parsing with DGs;
- building dependency-annotated corpora.
Additional issues
- Are "pure" dependency formalisms sufficient to
account for all syntactic phenomena or
do they need to be augmented with phrase structures?
- Should DGs be considered as a simple notational
variant of other types of formal grammars or are
there deep reasons for adopting them?
Each speaker will be given 30 minutes to present a
paper followed by 15 minutes for questions/discussions.

constituents
-- Diachronic studies
Papers will be 45 minutes plus 15 minutes for discussion.
