Abstract:

Collaboratively Constructed Language Resources (CCLRs) such as Wikipedia,
Wiktionary, Linked Open Data, and various resources developed using
crowdsourcing techniques such as Games with a Purpose and Mechanical Turk have
substantially contributed to the research in natural language processing
(NLP). Various NLP tasks utilize such resources to substitute for or
supplement conventional lexical semantic resources and linguistically
annotated corpora. These resources also provide an extensive body of texts
from which valuable knowledge is mined. There are an increasing number of
community efforts to link and maintain multiple linguistic resources.

This book offers comprehensive coverage of CCLR-related topics, including
their construction, utilization in NLP tasks, and interlinkage and management.
Various Bachelor/Master/Ph.D. programs in natural language processing,
computational linguistics, and knowledge discovery can use this book both as
either main textbook or supplementary reading. The book also provides a
valuable reference guide for researchers and professionals for the above
topics.

Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics
