4th International Workshop on Linguistically Interpreted Corpora

Short Title: LINC-03
Location: Budapest, Hungary
Date: 14-Apr-2003 - 14-Apr-2003
Call Deadline: 07-Jan-2003

Web Site: http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/linc03
Contact Person: Silvia Hansen
Meeting Email: hansen at coli.uni-sb.de

Linguistic Subfield(s): Text/Corpus Linguistics

Meeting Description:

A workshop to be held at EACL-03 the 11th Conference of the European
Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics

http://www.conferences.hu/EACL03
http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/linc03

ORGANIZED BY:

Anne Abeillé (Paris 7 & LLF, Paris)
Silvia Hansen (Saarland University, Saarbrücken)
Hans Uszkoreit (Saarland University & DFKI, Saarbrücken)


TOPIC AND MOTIVATION:

Large linguistically interpreted corpora play an increasingly
important role for machine learning, evaluation, psycholinguistics as
well as theoretical linguistics.  Many groups have started to create
corpus resources annotated with morphological, syntactic, semantic and
discourse information for a variety of languages.  Linguistic
annotation may consist of morphological analyses, trees, dependencies,
grammatical relations, word senses, (co)references, information
structure, semantic representations, discourse relations and other
types of linguistic information.

We aim to bring together these activities in order to facilitate
advanced and efficient corpus annotations which will provide re-usable
resources.

The workshop will also provide a forum for reports on the scientific
and technological exploitation of interpreted corpora in general,
computational or psycholinguistics.  Such reports on exploitation
results are valuable for the comparison of alternative approaches and
will thus serve as feedback to ongoing and new corpus annotation
efforts.

We invite submissions of papers constituting substantial, original,
and unpublished work on all aspects of linguistically interpreted
corpora, including, but not limited to:

- creation of practical annotation schemes
- efficient annotation techniques including automation
- tools supporting corpus conversions
- consistency checking and validation
- tools and methods for searching and browsing
- qualitative and quantitative studies based on
  linguistically interpreted corpora
- technological advances achieved by the
  exploitation of interpreted corpora

Meeting Email: lisograd at mail.lsit.ucsb.edu

Linguistic Subfield(s):
Sociolinguistics, Discourse Analysis, Applied Linguistics,
Anthropological Linguistics

Meeting Description:

The annual conference promotes interdisciplinary research and
discussion of the analysis of naturally occurring human interaction.
Submissions from national, international, and University of California
scholars are encouraged.  Research papers should address topics of
language, interaction, and culture, and should employ naturally
occurring data.  Potential methods include, but are not limited to,
conversation analysis, discourse analysis, ethnographic methods,
ethnomethodology, interactional linguistics, and interactional
sociolinguistics.

The Conference on Language, Interaction, and Culture is jointly
organized and sponsored by the Language, Interaction, and Social
Organization (LISO) group and the Center for Language, Interaction,
and Culture (CLIC).  LISO is an interdisciplinary faculty and graduate
student organization located on the campus of the University of
California, Santa Barbara.  CLIC is a center comprised of
interdisciplinary faculty and graduate students located on the campus
of the University of California, Los Angeles.  LISO and CLIC are
composed of researchers from the departments of Anthropology, Applied
Linguistics, Education, English, Linguistics, Psychology, and
Sociology. Submission Deadline: February 10
