Call Deadline: 04-Feb-2016 

Meeting Description:

The Department of Romance Languages
Faculty of Philosophy, University of South Bohemia in cooperation with Le
laboratoire ELLIADD de l'Université de Franche-Comté, Besançon, and The NOOJ
association are glad to invite you to the NooJ 2016 International Conference
held in České Budějovice (Czech Republic), 9-11 June 2016.

NooJ is both a corpus processing tool and a linguistic development environment
that allows linguists to formalize several levels of linguistic phenomena:

- Typography and spelling
- Syllabification, phonemic and prosodic transcription
- Lexicons of simple words, multiword units, and discontinuous expressions
- Inflectional, derivational and agglutinative morphology
- Local and structural syntax
- Transformational syntax and paraphrase generation
- Semantic analysis and machine translation

NooJ provides linguists with regular grammars, context-free grammars,
context-sensitive grammars, and unrestricted grammars as well as their
graphical equivalent (finite-state, recursive and contextual graphs) to
facilitate the description of each phenomenon. NooJ’s multi-layer approach
allows linguists to accumulate elementary descriptions and describe phenomena
that cross linguistic levels. As a corpus processing tool, NooJ allows users
to apply sophisticated linguistic queries to large corpora in real time, in
order to construct indices and concordances, annotate texts automatically, and
perform semantic and statistical analyses, etc.

NooJ is open-source, freely available at www.nooj4nlp.net, and over 20
linguistic modules can already be freely downloaded, as well as a manual,
video tutorials, references, etc.

The NooJ conference intends to:

- Give NooJ users and researchers in Linguistics and in Computational
Linguistics the opportunity to meet and share their experience as developers,
researchers and teachers
- Present to NooJ users the latest linguistic resources and NLP applications
developed for/with NooJ, its latest functionalities, as well as its future
developments
- Offer researchers and graduate students two tutorials (one basic and one
advanced) to help them parse corpora and build NLP applications using NooJ
- Provide an occasion to present and discover the recent developments of NooJ
itself (v5)
