The 1st Workshop on Computational Terminology in NLP and Translation
Studies (ConTeNTs)

Host Institution: Bulgarian Academy of Sciences
Coordinating Institution: Bulgarian Academy of Sciences
Website: https://contents2023.kulak.kuleuven.be/

Dates: 07-Sep-2023 - 08-Sep-2023
Location: Varna, Varna

Focus: The ConTeNTs workshop invites the submission of papers
reporting on original and unpublished research on topics related to
Computational Terminology in NLP and Translation Studies, including
but not limited to:

-       Automatic term extraction: monolingual and multilingual
extraction of terms from parallel and comparable corpora, including
single and multiword expressions;
-       Extraction and acquisition of semantic relations between
terms;
-       Extraction and generation of domain specific definitions and
disambiguation of terms;
-       Representation of terms, management of term variation and the
discovery of synonym terms or term clusters and its relation to NLP
applications;
-       Extraction of terminological context, through the use of
comparable and parallel corpus;
-       Accessibility of terminology in certain domains, relevant to
non-experts or to laypersons, and its relevance to NLP applications
such as, chatbots,  automatic email generation or spoken language
interface;
-       The impact of terminology on MT (applying terminology
constraints, evaluation of MT in domain-specific settings, etc.);
-       The creation of domain ontologies, thesaurus, terminological
resources in specialised domains;
-       The use of new technologies in translation studies and
research and the use of terminological resources in specialised
translation;
-       Identification of key problems in terminology and new
technologies used in translation studies;
-       Evaluation of terminological resources in various NLP
applications and the impact of these resources have on the performance
of the automatic systems;
-       Emerging language technologies: how the increased reliance on
real-time language technologies would change the structure of
language;
-       Corpus based studies applied to translation and interpreting:
the use of parallel and comparable corpora for translating
phraseological units;
-       Phraseology and multiword expressions in cross-linguistic
studies;
-       Translation and interpreting tools, such as translation
memories, machine translation and alignment tools;
-       User requirements for interpreting and translation tools.
Minimum Education Level: MA

Description:
Computational Terminology and new technologies applied to translation
studies have attracted the interest of researchers with very different
multidisciplinary backgrounds and motivations. Those fields cover a
range of areas in Natural Language Processing (NLP) such as
information retrieval, terminology extraction, question-answering
systems, ontology building, machine translation, computer-aided
translation, automatic or semi-automatic abstracting, text generation,
etc.
Terminological identification, extraction and coinage of new terms are
essential for knowledge mining from texts, both in high and low
resources languages. Quick evolutions and new developments in
specialised domains require efficient and systematic automatic term
management. New terms need to be coined and translated to ensure the
equitable development of domains in all languages.
During the last decade, deep learning and neural methods have become
the state of the art for most NLP applications. Those applications
were shown to outperform previous methods on various tasks, including
automatic term extraction, language mining, assessment of quality in
machine translation, accessibility of terminology, etc. On the one
hand, NLP and computational linguistics try to improve the work of
translators and interpreters by developing Computer-Assisted
Translation (CAT) tools, Translation Memories (TMs), terminological
databases and terminology extraction tools, etc. On the other hand,
the NLP field still needs the efforts and knowledge of translators,
interpreters and linguists to provide better services and tools based
on the real necessities of those language professionals.
The aim of this workshop is to promote new insights into the ongoing
and forthcoming developments in computational terminology by bringing
together NLP experts, as well as terminologists and translators. By
uniting researchers with such diverse profiles, we hope to bridge some
of the gaps between these disciplines and inspire a dialogue between
various parties, thus paving the way to more artificial intelligence
applications based on mutual collaboration between language and
technology.
