Dear Colleagues

This is just a final call for participants for
the Summer School in Forensic Linguistic
Analysis, to be hosted by the University of
Birmingham, UK, Sept 14th-18th 2001.  We are
offering a flexible package of options, from 1-5
days, including courses in forensic linguistics,
forensic phonetics, forensic interpreting and
forensic handwriting analysis.

There are still a limited number of spaces
available on the summer school.  Further
information may be obtained from the Director, Dr
Janet Cotterill, on email
cotterillj at cardiff.ac.uk or jcotterill at yahoo.com
or by fax on +44 (0) 2920 874242.

Best Wishes,

Janet

PRESENTATION

      Our purpose is to provide a forum for discussion on all aspects
      of learning language in logic.
      It is the follow-up of the previous LLL workshops held in 1999
      in Bled, Slovenia, and in 2000 in Lisboa, Portugal.

      The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers who
      are working on learning from text, while emphasizing the
      logic-based learning techniques and algorithms.

      We strongly encourage contributions concerning semantic analysis
      of natural languages, describing logic-based learning techniques
      alternative to ILP, employing active learning or solving tasks
      for other languages than English.

      These techniques include but are not limited to:

         -  Combinations of approaches and multi-strategy learning
         -  Instance-based and clustering approaches in relational
            learning
         -  Scalability issues (applying logic-based methods to large
            data sets)
         -  Logical approaches to statistical NLP
         -  Higher-order logic for LLL
         -  Handling very complex terms
         -  Collaborative and interactive learning

         -  Shallow parsing
         -  Grammar learning
         -  Learning subcategorisation frames
         -  Part-of-speech tagging
         -  Morphosyntactic tagging
         -  Morphological analysis
         -  Information indexing, filtering, retrieval, extraction
         -  Text classification methods
         -  Question answering
         -  Learning ontologies, thesauri and lexicon
         -  Extracting predicate-argument structure
