Short Title: ISA-13 

Date: 19-Sep-2017 - 19-Sep-2017
Location: Montpellier, France 
Contact Person: Harry Bunt
Meeting Email: harry.bunt at uvt.nl
Web Site: https://sigsem.uvt.nl/isa13/ 

Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics; Semantics; Text/Corpus Linguistics 

Call Deadline: 23-Jun-2017 

Meeting Description:

ISA-13 is the thirteenth edition of a series of joint workshops of the ACL
Special Interest Group in Semantics (SIGSEM) and the International
Organisation for Standardisation ISO. The first workshop in this series was
held in conjunction with the IWCS 2003 conference in Tilburg (Netherlands);
the latest workshop was held in 2016 as part of the LREC conference in
Portoroz (Slovenia). 

ISA-workshops bring together experts in the annotation of semantic information
as expressed in text, speech, gestures, graphics, video, images, and in
communicative behaviour where multiple modalities are combined. Examples of
semantic annotation include the markup of events, time, space, dialogue acts,
discourse relations, semantic roles, coreference, and quantification, for
which the ISO organisation pursues the establishment and exploitation of
standardised annotation methods and representation schemes in order to support
the creation of interoperable semantic resources.


Call for Papers:

Topics for submissions include, but are not limited to:

- Methodological aspects of semantic annotation
- Semantic annotation and semantic interpretation
- Experiments in semantic annotation
- Comparative studies of semantic annotation schemes
- Semantic annotation and ontologies
- Evaluation of annotation schemes
- Context-dependence in semantic annotations
- Applications of semantic annotation
- Integration of semantic annotation and other linguistic annotations
- Issues in the annotation of specific domains of semantic information, such
as:

 - Events, states, processes, circumstances, facts
 - Relations in discourse and dialogue
 - Time and space
 - Modality,  polarity and factuality, 
 - Quantification and modification
 - Coreference relations
 - Semantic roles and predicate-argument structures

- Integration of annotations of different domains of semantic annotation
- Annotation of cross-domain phenomena such as negation, attribution and
sentiment
- Levels of granularity in annotation schemes
- Cross-domain issues in semantic annotation, such as language- and
application-dependence
- Best practices in semantic annotation

Three types of submission are invited:

- Research papers, describing original research in the area of semantic
annotation; these can be either long (6-8 pages, not including references) or
short (3-4 pages, not including references)
- Project notes, describing recent, ongoing or planned projects involving
semantic annotation (2-4 pages including references)
- Demonstration notes, accompanying demonstration of software tools to support
manual semantic annotation, or systems for automatic semantic annotation (2-4
pages including references)
