Full Title: Workshop on Multilingual Lexical Semantics

Location: Louvain, Belgium 
Contact Person: Vincenzo Pallotta
Meeting Email: Vincenzo.Pallotta at unifr.ch
Web Site: http://libresource.inria.fr/projects/TALN-MulLexSem 

Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics 

Call Deadline: 02-Jan-2006 

Meeting Description:

The TALN 06 Workshop on Multilingual Lexical Semantics will be held in conjunction with the 13th edition of the Conference on Traitement Automatique de la Langue Naturelle that will take place April 10-13, 2006, in Louvain, Belgium.

The creation and the sharing of multilingual lexical semantics resources are likely to improve the quality of highly demanding NLP applications such as Machine Translation and Information Extraction. Moreover, multilingual semantic resources help in a better and more extensive assessment of generality of the semantic theories due to the parallel analysis of multiple team on several translated corpora.

In our workshop we would like to bring together scholars and pratictioners in order to discuss about the methodologies for the joint construction and evaluation of large-scale interoperable multilingual lexical semantics resources and their use in the annotation of multilingual parallel corpora. Also, we are interested in the development of automatic methods for the cross-lingual transfer of existing monolingual resources and/or annotated corpora, and for the integration of heterogeneous multilingual resources such as EuroWordNet, MultiWordNet, Multilingual FrameNets.
