We hope to see you in Poznań. Best regards Zygmunt Vetulani, LTC 2009 Chair ****************************************************************************** Call for papers and participation The 4th LANGUAGE AND TECHNOLOGY CONFERENCE: Human Language Technologies as a Challenge for Computer Science and Linguistics (LTC 2009), a meeting organized by the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science of Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań, Poland in cooperation with the Adam Mickiewicz University Foundation (co-organizer), will take place on November 6-8, 2009. Human Language Technologies (HLT) continue to be a challenge for computer science, linguistics and related fields as these areas become an ever more essential element of our everyday technological environment. Since the very beginning of the Computer and Information  Age these fields have influenced and stimulated each other. The European Union strongly supports HLT under the 7th Framework Program. These efforts as well as technological, social and cultural globalization have created a favorable climate for the intensive exchange of novel ideas, concepts and solutions across initially distant disciplines. We aim at further contributing to this exchange and invite you to join us at LTC in November 6-8, 2009, as well as at the FlaReNet workshop (LRL 2009, on November 5, 2009) on the theme "Getting Less-Resourced Languages on-Board!".

LRL WORKSHOP: Getting Less-Resourced Languages on-Board! Name: Getting Less-Resourced Languages on-Board! Date: 5.11.2009, half-day (13h30 – 18h00) + cocktail Theme: Language Technologies (LT) provide an essential support to the challenge of Multilingualism. In order to develop them, it is necessary to have access to Language Resources (LR) and to assess LT performances. To this regard, the situation is very different across the different languages. Little or sparse data exist for languages in countries or regions where limited efforts have been devoted to such issues in the past, also known as Less-Resourced Languages (LRL). The workshop aims at reporting the needs, at presenting achievements and at proposing solutions for the future, both in terms of LR and of LT evaluation, especially in the European, Euro-Mediterranean and regional frameworks. This will allow to identity the factors that have an impact on a potential and shared roadmap towards supplying LR and LT for all languages. Topics: - Experience in the production, validation and distribution of LR for less-resourced languages - Experience in the evaluation of LT for less-resourced languages - Infrastructures for making available LR and LT in less-resourced languages - Alternative approaches (comparable corpora, pivot languages, language clustering) - To be completed Co-Chairs: Joseph Mariani (LIMSI-CNRS & IMMI-CNRS), Khalid Choukri(ELRA & ELDA), Zygmunt Vetulani (Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznan) Paper submission deadline: September 6. Sponsors: FLaReNet, ELRA Inscriptions: as for the general LTC (+ cc to workshop chairs) Fees: inscription fees to the LTC + extra 40 Euros or 80 Euros for the Workshop-only attenders. Paper submission: as for the general LTC(EasyChair) + to the workshop chairs Presentation: publication in the LTC proceedings (paper + CD) Reviewing: up to the workshop chairs + scientific committee Program: The workshop will comprise presentations (including keynote talks) and a panel session, including a EC representative (tentative). In addition, selected speakers will be invited to present their papers to a larger audience at the main LTC conference.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers from academia and industry who develop technologies for mining open-source user-generated textual data on the Web, as well as end-users interested in exploiting such technologies for knowledge discovery. The emphasis is placed on large-scale text mining systems and application-oriented approaches to processing on-line textual content in the context of security-related applications. Examples of such applications include: * global medical and epidemic surveillance, * conflict early warning, * early detection of man-made or environmental hazards, * risk assessment, * border surveillance, * cross-border crime detection, * terrorism counterintelligence, * other applications relevant for security, law enforcement, and public health institutions Due to a multitude of challenges of diverse and complex nature that are related to automating the process of mining user-generated content on the Web, we believe that this workshop will serve as a forum to bring together researchers from different areas, including data mining, language technology, computational linguistics, information sciences, information retrieval and Web mining, for sharing ideas and discussion. In particular, we believe that there is an important gap to be filled, since the aforementioned research communities have had limited interaction previously in the context of the topic of the Workshop. The second major goal is to engage governmental and inter-state user communities, and to bring them together with scientists and funding agencies. -------------------- TOPICS OF INTEREST -------------------- * Mining from news streams, blogs, document repositories, and other openly accessible and dynamically changing data, including Web 2.0 content, for the purpose of identifying threats to security or public health, * Emphasis on multilingual approaches, and work on languages other than English, * Applications, such as information extraction, classification, summarization, sentiment detection, event detection, event forecasting, trend detection, information fusion, and more, * Contributions in the form of applications (working systems and prototypes) as well as theoretical results are welcome, * Application domains include crisis-related event reporting, political and environmental analysis, and medical intelligence, under the general umbrella of the security intelligence domain, * Methods including machine learning, rule-based, and hybrid approaches. NB: Please note, this Workshop welcomes all work on computational approaches to the analysis of textual data for gathering information from openly accessible sources only. Submissions that focus on legal questions stemming from snooping, spying, privacy infringement or violation, etc., will not be considered relevant to the Theme of the Workshop, and the Committee will not be able to review them. ------------ SUBMISSION ------------ We invite papers addressing primarily the language technology, natural language processing, data mining and information retrieval communities, as well as the relevant end-user groups. Submissions are invited in two categories: * regular: research papers presenting novel approaches and solutions, and * short (posters): system demonstrations, descriptions, and work in progress Submissions are electronic and in PDF format via a web-based submission server. Authors are encouraged to use Springer LNICST style for LaTeX in producing the PDF document. More information on this style can be found at: http://www.springer.com/computer?SGWID=0-146-6-564009-0 The page limit for regular papers is 6 pages, whereas short papers are limited to 4 pages. The information about the author(s) should be omitted in the submitted papers since the review process wil be blind. More detailed information about submission is available on: http://www.usercentricmedia.org/workshops/minucs/authors.shtml Each submissions will be reviewed by at least 3 members of the Program Committee. Authors of accepted papers will receive guidelines regarding how to produce camera-ready versions. ------------- PUBLICATION ------------- All workshop papers will be published in the official proceedings, Springer Lecture Notes of the Institute for Computer Sciences, Social-Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering - LNICST, of the main conference.

Last Call for Papers Bare nouns: syntactic projections and their interpretation The workshop on "Bare nouns: syntactic projections and their interpretation" will be held at the University Paris Diderot – Laboratoire de Linguistique Formelle – UMR 7110 CNRS on November 26 – 28, 2009. The workshop is organized by the bilateral projects Hubert Curien – Picasso 2007 – 2009 (resp. Carmen Dobrovie-Sorin, LLF Université Paris Diderot, France) and Acció integrada hispanofrancesa HF 2007-0039 (resp. Maria Teresa Espinal, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain): http://seneca.uab.cat/clt/activitats/congressos.html The workshop will consist of 3 invited talks, 10 talks by members of the above-mentioned projects, and 10 selected talks (30 min. + 15 min. of discussion) bearing on any aspect of the syntax and/or semantics of bare nominals, including the following: (i) Should we assume three distinct levels of syntactic representation (DP, NumP and NP) or only one (NP) or two (DP and NP)? (ii) Do we need to postulate little n and if so, do we still need Number as a functional category or should we analyze Number as a feature? (iii) What are the parameters that are relevant for the crosslinguistic variation in the use of bare nominals? (iv) Should classifiers be viewed as counterparts of Number or rather as counterparts of Gender? The languages of the workshop are English and French.

Substantial effort has been devoted to the creation of such resources for the world’s major languages over the past decades, and new projects are developing similar resources for less widely-used languages. Some standards and best practices have emerged for representing and linking language corpora and annotations. Efforts such as the “Global WordNet” and the development of framenets in multiple languages seek to create and link specific lexical and semantic resources across languages, and there are efforts to integrate such resources into general-purpose ontologies such as SUMO. As the need for cross-lingual studies and applications grows, it is increasingly important to develop resources in the world’s languages that can be compared and linked, used and analyzed with common software, and that contain linguistic information for the same or comparable phenomena. We envision the eventual development of a “global web” of language resources, wherein, for example, linguistically-annotated corpora in multiple languages are inter- linked via the use of common categories, or categories that are mapped to one another; resources such as wordnets and framenets are linked not only to versions in different languages, but also to each other; and common representations enable analysis and use of resources in different languages and of different types within available systems. Interoperability also fosters universal access to language resources, enabling researchers who have fewer resources for performing costly and time-consuming transductions to have the same capabilities as others. The Second International Conference on Global Interoperability for Language Resources will bring together designers, developers, and users of language resources, tools, frameworks, and infrastructures from across the globe, in order to: · assess the state of the art in methods and schemes for resource representation, annotation, processing, interlinkage, and access; · consider the ways in which web technologies are and may be used to enable resource accessibility, interoperability and inter- linkage; · consider the requirements for (and obstacles to) full interoperability, especially with regard to multi-lingual and multi- modal data; · consider the requirements for achieving interoperability among multi-lingual resources of different types, including corpora, lexicons, knowledge bases, ontologies, etc., as well as the systems and frameworks that enable their creation and exploitation; · work toward the definition of best practice guidelines and standards for language resource representation, annotation, and use that will enable interoperability; · consider means to map or harmonize linguistic information in order to better enable cross-lingual studies; · provide direction for developers of resources for less widely used languages; · promote collaboration and cooperation among developers of language resources and tools across the globe; · consider ways to provide central or distributed access to language resources developed throughout the world. This year’s conference will include a special focus on the use of web- based technologies for interoperability and open access to language resources. Topics Paper submissions are invited on (but not limited to) the following topics: · web-based technologies for resource interoperability, inter- linkage, and access; · multi-lingual and/or multi-modal language resources, with focus on the mechanisms enabling interoperability; · support for multi-linguality and multi-modality in systems/ frameworks for resource creation, annotation, use, and access; · existing and proposed standards for language resources, including standards for linguistic annotations at any and all linguistics levels; · systems, frameworks, and architectures to support the development and use of interoperable language resources; · evaluation of existing resources, systems and frameworks, and/ or standards in terms of support for interoperability; · harmonization, integration, and/or linking of language resources, including corpora, wordnets, framenets, ontologies, etc.; · ontologies for language resources, especially for support of multi-linguality, multi-culturality, and multi-modality. Proceedings Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings. A selection of outstanding conference presentations will be published in a special issue of the journal Language Resources and Evaluation. Submissions Submissions should be no more than 8 pages in length, including bibliography and any appendices. Author instructions will be posted on the conference web site.

Due to the arrangement with the Publishers of confernce proceedings we are now in possibility to extend the deadline. The new deadline is September 6. Any further extension will not be possible because of obvious technological constraints. As many authors succeeded to send us their submissions within the initially fixed deadline, we will start the evaluation procedure now. Please visit time to time the conference www site (www.ltc.amu.edu.pl) where new, important information about the conference and related events will sistematically appear. We hope to see you in Pozna?. Best regards Zygmunt Vetulani, LTC 2009 Chair ****************************************************************************** Call for papers and participation The 4th LANGUAGE AND TECHNOLOGY CONFERENCE: Human Language Technologies as a Challenge for Computer Science and Linguistics (LTC 2009), a meeting organized by the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science of Adam Mickiewicz University, Pozna?, Poland in cooperation with the Adam Mickiewicz University Foundation (co-organizer), will take place on November 6-8, 2009. Human Language Technologies (HLT) continue to be a challenge for computer science, linguistics and related fields as these areas become an ever more essential element of our everyday technological environment. Since the very beginning of the Computer and Information ?Age these fields have influenced and stimulated each other. The European Union strongly supports HLT under the 7th Framework Program. These efforts as well as technological, social and cultural globalization have created a favorable climate for the intensive exchange of novel ideas, concepts and solutions across initially distant disciplines. We aim at further contributing to this exchange and invite you to join us at LTC in November 6-8, 2009, as well as at the FlaReNet workshop (LRL 2009, on November 5, 2009) on the theme "Getting Less-Resourced Languages on-Board!".

Name: Getting Less-Resourced Languages on-Board! Date: 5.11.2009, half-day (13h30 ? 18h00) + cocktail Theme: Language Technologies (LT) provide an essential support to the challenge of Multilingualism. In order to develop them, it is necessary to have access to Language Resources (LR) and to assess LT performances. To this regard, the situation is very different across the different languages. Little or sparse data exist for languages in countries or regions where limited efforts have been devoted to such issues in the past, also known as Less-Resourced Languages (LRL). The workshop aims at reporting the needs, at presenting achievements and at proposing solutions for the future, both in terms of LR and of LT evaluation, especially in the European, Euro-Mediterranean and regional frameworks. This will allow to identity the factors that have an impact on a potential and shared roadmap towards supplying LR and LT for all languages. Topics: - Experience in the production, validation and distribution of LR for less-resourced languages - Experience in the evaluation of LT for less-resourced languages - Infrastructures for making available LR and LT in less-resourced languages - Alternative approaches (comparable corpora, pivot languages, language clustering) - To be completed Co-Chairs: Joseph Mariani (LIMSI-CNRS & IMMI-CNRS), Khalid Choukri(ELRA & ELDA), Zygmunt Vetulani (Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznan) Paper submission deadline: September 6. Sponsors: FLaReNet, ELRA Inscriptions: as for the general LTC (+ cc to workshop chairs) Fees: inscription fees to the LTC + extra 40 Euros or 80 Euros for the Workshop-only attenders. Paper submission: as for the general LTC(EasyChair) + to the workshop chairs Presentation: publication in the LTC proceedings (paper + CD) Reviewing: up to the workshop chairs + scientific committee Program: The workshop will comprise presentations (including keynote talks) and a panel session, including a EC representative (tentative). In addition, selected speakers will be invited to present their papers to a larger audience at the main LTC conference.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers from academia and industry who develop technologies for mining open-source user-generated textual data on the Web, as well as end-users interested in exploiting such technologies for knowledge discovery. The emphasis is placed on large-scale text mining systems and application-oriented approaches to processing on-line textual content in the context of security-related applications. Examples of such applications include: * global medical and epidemic surveillance, * conflict early warning, * early detection of man-made or environmental hazards, * risk assessment, * border surveillance, * cross-border crime detection, * terrorism counterintelligence, * other applications relevant for security, law enforcement, and public health institutions Due to a multitude of challenges of diverse and complex nature that are related to automating the process of mining user-generated content on the Web, we believe that this workshop will serve as a forum to bring together researchers from different areas, including data mining, language technology, computational linguistics, information sciences, information retrieval and Web mining, for sharing ideas and discussion. In particular, we believe that there is an important gap to be filled, since the aforementioned research communities have had limited interaction previously in the context of the topic of the Workshop. The second major goal is to engage governmental and inter-state user communities, and to bring them together with scientists and funding agencies. -------------------- TOPICS OF INTEREST -------------------- * Mining from news streams, blogs, document repositories, and other openly accessible and dynamically changing data, including Web 2.0 content, for the purpose of identifying threats to security or public health, * Emphasis on multilingual approaches, and work on languages other than English, * Applications, such as information extraction, classification, summarization, sentiment detection, event detection, event forecasting, trend detection, information fusion, and more, * Contributions in the form of applications (working systems and prototypes) as well as theoretical results are welcome, * Application domains include crisis-related event reporting, political and environmental analysis, and medical intelligence, under the general umbrella of the security intelligence domain, * Methods including machine learning, rule-based, and hybrid approaches. NB: Please note, this Workshop welcomes all work on computational approaches to the analysis of textual data for gathering information from openly accessible sources only. Submissions that focus on legal questions stemming from snooping, spying, privacy infringement or violation, etc., will not be considered relevant to the Theme of the Workshop, and the Committee will not be able to review them. ------------ SUBMISSION ------------ We invite papers addressing primarily the language technology, natural language processing, data mining and information retrieval communities, as well as the relevant end-user groups. Submissions are invited in two categories: * regular: research papers presenting novel approaches and solutions, and * short (posters): system demonstrations, descriptions, and work in progress Submissions are electronic and in PDF format via a web-based submission server.

Last Call for Papers Bare nouns: syntactic projections and their interpretation The workshop on "Bare nouns: syntactic projections and their interpretation" will be held at the University Paris Diderot ? Laboratoire de Linguistique Formelle ? UMR 7110 CNRS on November 26 ? 28, 2009. The workshop is organized by the bilateral projects Hubert Curien ? Picasso 2007 ? 2009 (resp. Carmen Dobrovie-Sorin, LLF Universit? Paris Diderot, France) and Acci? integrada hispanofrancesa HF 2007-0039 (resp. Maria Teresa Espinal, Universitat Aut?noma de Barcelona, Spain): http://seneca.uab.cat/clt/activitats/congressos.html The workshop will consist of 3 invited talks, 10 talks by members of the above-mentioned projects, and 10 selected talks (30 min. + 15 min. of discussion) bearing on any aspect of the syntax and/or semantics of bare nominals, including the following: (i) Should we assume three distinct levels of syntactic representation (DP, NumP and NP) or only one (NP) or two (DP and NP)? (ii) Do we need to postulate little n and if so, do we still need Number as a functional category or should we analyze Number as a feature? (iii) What are the parameters that are relevant for the crosslinguistic variation in the use of bare nominals? (iv) Should classifiers be viewed as counterparts of Number or rather as counterparts of Gender? The languages of the workshop are English and French.

Substantial effort has been devoted to the creation of such resources for the world?s major languages over the past decades, and new projects are developing similar resources for less widely-used languages. Some standards and best practices have emerged for representing and linking language corpora and annotations. Efforts such as the ?Global WordNet? and the development of framenets in multiple languages seek to create and link specific lexical and semantic resources across languages, and there are efforts to integrate such resources into general-purpose ontologies such as SUMO. As the need for cross-lingual studies and applications grows, it is increasingly important to develop resources in the world?s languages that can be compared and linked, used and analyzed with common software, and that contain linguistic information for the same or comparable phenomena. We envision the eventual development of a ?global web? of language resources, wherein, for example, linguistically-annotated corpora in multiple languages are inter- linked via the use of common categories, or categories that are mapped to one another; resources such as wordnets and framenets are linked not only to versions in different languages, but also to each other; and common representations enable analysis and use of resources in different languages and of different types within available systems. Interoperability also fosters universal access to language resources, enabling researchers who have fewer resources for performing costly and time-consuming transductions to have the same capabilities as others. The Second International Conference on Global Interoperability for Language Resources will bring together designers, developers, and users of language resources, tools, frameworks, and infrastructures from across the globe, in order to: ? assess the state of the art in methods and schemes for resource representation, annotation, processing, interlinkage, and access; ? consider the ways in which web technologies are and may be used to enable resource accessibility, interoperability and inter- linkage; ? consider the requirements for (and obstacles to) full interoperability, especially with regard to multi-lingual and multi- modal data; ? consider the requirements for achieving interoperability among multi-lingual resources of different types, including corpora, lexicons, knowledge bases, ontologies, etc., as well as the systems and frameworks that enable their creation and exploitation; ? work toward the definition of best practice guidelines and standards for language resource representation, annotation, and use that will enable interoperability; ? consider means to map or harmonize linguistic information in order to better enable cross-lingual studies; ? provide direction for developers of resources for less widely used languages; ? promote collaboration and cooperation among developers of language resources and tools across the globe; ? consider ways to provide central or distributed access to language resources developed throughout the world. This year?s conference will include a special focus on the use of web- based technologies for interoperability and open access to language resources. Topics Paper submissions are invited on (but not limited to) the following topics: ? web-based technologies for resource interoperability, inter- linkage, and access; ? multi-lingual and/or multi-modal language resources, with focus on the mechanisms enabling interoperability; ? support for multi-linguality and multi-modality in systems/ frameworks for resource creation, annotation, use, and access; ? existing and proposed standards for language resources, including standards for linguistic annotations at any and all linguistics levels; ? systems, frameworks, and architectures to support the development and use of interoperable language resources; ? evaluation of existing resources, systems and frameworks, and/ or standards in terms of support for interoperability; ? harmonization, integration, and/or linking of language resources, including corpora, wordnets, framenets, ontologies, etc.; ? ontologies for language resources, especially for support of multi-linguality, multi-culturality, and multi-modality. Proceedings Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings. A selection of outstanding conference presentations will be published in a special issue of the journal Language Resources and Evaluation. Submissions Submissions should be no more than 8 pages in length, including bibliography and any appendices. Author instructions will be posted on the conference web site.
