Meeting Description:

The EACL 2006 Workshop on 'Multi-word-expressions in a multilingual context' will be hosted in
conjunction with the 11th Conference of the European Chapter of
the Association for Computational Linguistics that will take
place April 3-7, 2006, in Trento, italy. 

- DESCRIPTION

For many years, interest in the NLP community of the problems that multiword-expressions (MWE) posed was focussed mainly on English. Recently, for example at the ACL2004 workshop on multiword expressions, attention has begun to expand to other languages such as Japanese, Russian, Basque and Turkish. This necessitates a re-evaluation of earlier rule-based, statistical and hybrid techniques for MWE identification and classification. In English, MWE types such as phrasal verbs, noun phrases, proper names, and true non-compositional idioms, are considered. However, in other languages some MWE types are represented as compound words, e.g. phrasal verbs in English are generally expressed as verb-prefix in Russian.  At the same time, research on MWEs for languages other than English is confronted with new problems, such as the number of word forms per lemma or free word order. Our focus in this workshop will be to incorporate the requirements from different areas such as translation, language engineering and those studying computational techniques for the processing of MWE of language learners and how all these requirements differ across languages. 

For further details and topics of interest, please refer to the website of the workshop.

Meeting Description:

Adaptive extraction and mining from texts is an active area of research that lies at the intersection of diverse fields such as information extraction, text mining, machine learning, data mining, information  retrieval, and knowledge capture. As developments in any of these fields have an immediate effect on the other ones, the workshop's goal is to bring together researchers and practitioners from these communities, so that they can discuss recent results and foster new directions of research. 

The EACL 2006 Workshop on Adaptive Text Extraction and Mining  will be hosted in conjunction with the 11th Conference of the  European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics  that will take place April 3-7, 2006, in Trento, Italy.
