Apologies for cross-posting,
Submissions are invited for an Elsevier Knowledge-Based Systems special
issue on Big Data for Social Analysis.

RATIONALE
The textual information available on the Web can be broadly grouped into
two main categories: facts and opinions. Facts are objective expressions
about entities or events. Opinions are usually subjective expressions
that describe people's sentiments, appraisals, or feelings towards such
entities and events. Much of the existing research on textual
information processing has been focused on mining and retrieval of
factual information, e.g., text classification, text recognition, text
clustering, and many other text mining and natural language processing
(NLP) tasks. Little work had been done on the processing of opinions
until only recently.

One of the main reasons for the lack of study on opinions is the fact
that there was little opinionated text available before the recent
passage from a read-only to a read-write Web. Before that, in fact, when
people needed to make a decision, they typically asked for opinions from
friends and family. Similarly, when organizations wanted to find the
opinions or sentiments of the general public about their products and
services, they had to specifically ask people by conducting opinion
polls and surveys.

However, with the advent of the Social Web, the way people express their
views and opinions has dramatically changed. They can now post reviews
of products at merchant sites and express their views on almost anything
in Internet forums, discussion groups, and blogs. Such online
word-of-mouth behavior represents new and measurable sources of
information with many practical applications. Nonetheless, finding
opinion sources and monitoring them can be a formidable task because
there are a large number of diverse sources and each source may also
have a huge volume of opinionated text.

In many cases, in fact, opinions are hidden in long forum posts and
blogs. It is extremely time-consuming for a human reader to find
relevant sources, extract related sentences with opinions, read them,
summarize them, and organize them into usable forms. Thus, automated
opinion discovery and summarization systems are needed. Big social data
analysis grows out of this need and it includes disciplines such as
social network analysis, multimedia management, social media analytics,
trend discovery, and opinion mining. The opportunity to capture the
opinions of the general public about social events, political movements,
company strategies, marketing campaigns, and product preferences, in
particular, has raised growing interest both within the scientific
community.

All the opinion-mining tasks, however, are very challenging. Our
understanding and knowledge of the problem and its solution are still
limited. The main reason is that it is a NLP task, and NLP has no easy
problems. Another reason may be due to our popular ways of doing
research. So far, in fact, researchers have probably relied too much on
traditional machine-learning algorithms. Some of the most effective
machine-learning algorithms, in fact, produce no human understandable
results such that, although they may achieve improved accuracy, little
about how and why is known, apart from some superficial knowledge gained
in the manual feature engineering process. All such approaches,
moreover, rely on syntactical structure of text, which is far from the
way human mind processes natural language.

TOPICS
Articles are thus invited in area of knowledge-based systems for big
social data analysis. The broader context of the Special Issue
comprehends artificial intelligence, knowledge representation and
reasoning, natural language processing, and data mining. Topics include,
but are not limited to:
- Knowledge-based systems for big social data analysis
- Biologically inspired opinion mining
- Concept-level opinion and sentiment analysis
- Knowledge-based systems for social media retrieval and analysis
- Knowledge-based systems for social media marketing
- Social network modeling, simulation, and visualization
- Semantic multi-dimensional scaling for sentiment analysis
- Knowledge-based systems for patient opinion mining
- Sentic computing
- Multilingual and multimodal sentiment analysis
- Multimodal fusion for continuous interpretation of semantics
- Knowledge-based systems for time-evolving sentiment tracking
- Knowledge-based systems for cognitive agent-based computing
- Human-agent, -computer, and -robot interaction
- Domain adaptation for sentiment classification
- Affective common-sense reasoning
- Knowledge-based systems for user profiling and personalization

The Special Issue also welcomes papers on specific application domains
of knowledge-based systems for big social data analysis, e.g., influence
networks, customer experience management, intelligent user interfaces,
multimedia management, computer-mediated human-human communication,
enterprise feedback management, surveillance, art.

TIMEFRAME
November 1st, 2013: Paper submission deadline
December 1st, 2013: Notification of acceptance
January 1st, 2013: Final manuscript due
March/April, 2014: Publication

SUBMISSION AND PROCEEDINGS
The Special Issue will consist of papers on novel methods and approaches
that further develop and apply knowledge-based techniques in the context
of natural language processing and big social data analysis. Some papers
may survey various aspects of the topic. The balance between these will
be adjusted to maximize the issue's impact. All articles are expected to
successfully negotiate the standard review procedures for Elsevier
Knowledge-Based Systems. Contributions are invited in the form of
original high-quality research and review papers (preferably no more
than 20 double line spaced manuscript pages, including tables and
figures), following the formatting style for Elsevier. A submission that
has already been published in conference proceedings has to be submitted
as more than 45% update in comparison to the published version. The
title page should not include name, affiliation, and e-mail address of
the authors. All paper has to be submitted through thejournal electronic

PhD Programme in Computer Science  at the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano

The Free University of Bozen-Bolzano was founded in 1997 as a
multilingual, internationally oriented institution.

A public competition for the allocation of PhD positions in the Faculty
of Computer Science is announced, for 10 places, of which 6 places will
be covered by grants. The PhD Programme lasts three years and the
official language of the programme is English.

PhD students are expected to work full-time on their research. During
the PhD, it is advisable to spend a period of 6-12 months at a national
or international research center.

Candidates are strongly advised to contact their desired research
centers at the Faculty of Computer Science before applying. This way,
they can obtain a clear idea of the specific research carried out at the
Faculty. It is expected that students are able to write and speak
fluently in English.

The Selection Committee selects PhD students based on a comparative
assessment of the qualification of applicants, taking into account also
feedback from potential supervisors, especially those who have grants
available to support the PhD students, and determines the winners based
on the merits of each candidate. The Selection Committee also selects
those candidates who are qualified to start a PhD program at the Free
University of Bozen/Bolzano, but who cannot be admitted for lack of
space. Should a selected winner not accept the position, such candidates
will be next in line for the position.

Instructions for application (pre-enrollment) can be found here:

http://www.unibz.it/en/inf/progs/phdcs

The application must be complete by 13 September 2013, 12:00 a.m.


Research Areas

Research in the Faculty of Computer Science is focused on three areas
that are treated on a long-term basis by research groups whose members
collectively examine topics related to each of the three research
areas. The research areas, with a selection of their research topics,
are:

Knowledge Representation and Databases
- web page: http://www.inf.unibz.it/krdb/
- contact person: Alessandro Artale artale at inf.unibz.it
Logic based languages for knowledge representation
Intelligent database access
Foundations of controlled natural language
Temporal aspects of data and knowledge representation
Extending database technologies

The research topics in knowledge representation are focused on
foundational and practical aspects of knowledge representation
technologies applied to information systems. The whole life cycle
ranging from the design to the deployment of such technologies is
covered: the conceptual modeling of various types of knowledge, the
linguistic and logical aspects of knowledge, the integration of
heterogeneous knowledge sources, including information coming from the
Internet, the usage of knowledge to support the intelligent retrieval of
information, and the usage of knowledge to create virtual services on
the net. 


Databases and Information Systems 
Management and analysis of large data sets
Temporal data models and databases
Data evolution and integration
Approximation techniques for large databases
Machine learning techniques for searching and selecting information

The research activities in the area of database and information systems
focus on key aspects of applied computer science, including data
warehousing and data mining, the integration of heterogeneous and
distributed databases, time-varying information, data models, and query
processing. The research approach is primarily constructive in its
outset, and it includes substantial experimental and analytical
elements. The development activities cover the design of data models and
structures, and the development of algorithms, data structures,
languages, and systems. The experimental activities verify real world
artifacts with the help of prototypes and simulations. The analytic
activities include the analysis of the algorithmic complexity and the
evaluation of languages. The main goal is theoretically sound results
that solve real world problems.

Software Engineering 
Agile methodologies, lean management, and open source
Measurement and assurance of software quality, reliability and
development
Distributed computing and distributed service-oriented architectures
Information technology and business alignment
Component-based development and reuse of software
Cooperative systems and interoperability of software

The research topics in software engineering are focused on the empirical
and quantitative study of innovative models for software
development. The target analysis techniques include both traditional
statistics, and new approaches, such as computational intelligence,
Bayesian models, and meta-analytical systems. The innovative software
development techniques include (a) methods based on lean management,
such as agile methods, with a specific interest for benchmarking and
identification of defects, and (b) open source development models, with
specific attention for self organizing systems and the analysis of the
resulting qualit

The doctoral works treat topics from the three research areas that
develop from the ongoing work of the groups.

The following list contains possible topics for doctoral work: 
Data-centric business processes
Data Quality for Linked Open Data
Process-Aware Business Intelligence
Management of Business Processes and Data

DEUXIÈME APPEL À PROPOSITIONS

COLLOQUE INTERNATIONAL

À L’ARTICULATION DU LEXIQUE, DE LA GRAMMAIRE ET DU DISCOURS : MARQUEURS
GRAMMATICAUX ET MARQUEURS DISCURSIFS DATES

Vendredi 4 avril et samedi 5 avril 2014

LIEU

Université Paris 3 – Sorbonne nouvelle

RESPONSABLES

- Gaétane Dostie (Professeure de linguistique à l’Université de
  Sherbrooke, Québec ; Catifq)

  - Sorbonne Nouvelle ; Syled-Clesthia (EA2290))

CADRE DE LA RENCONTRE

Ce colloque vise à examiner des faits lexicaux qui se situent à la
frontière de la grammaire et du discours. Deux types d’emplois bien
distincts de marqueurs retiendront particulièrement l’attention :

i) Des emplois où les morphèmes considérés agissent à titre de marqueurs
   grammaticaux, ce qui inclut notamment (Léard en préparation) :

- Des usages où ils donnent des informations relatives à la quantité et
  aux repères spatio-temporels (c’est-à-dire des usages où ils
  effectuent des opérations de quantification et de repérage sur les
  classes majeures de mots, comme les déterminants, les auxiliaires,
  etc.) ;

- Des usages où ils lient des mots, des syntagmes ou des propositions à
  l'intérieur des énoncés (prépositions, coordonnants et subordonnants).

ii) Des emplois où les morphèmes ciblés ont le statut de marqueurs
    discursifs. Contrairement aux emplois qui précèdent, ils ne
    participent alors pas au contenu propositionnel des énoncés auxquels
    ils sont joints (ex. : là et t’sais) ou ils constituent par
    eux-mêmes des énoncés (ex. : quand même dans certaines de ses
    utilisations ; entre autres, Vincent 1993 ; Fernandez-Vest 1994 ;
    Hansen, 1998 ; Brémond 2002 ; Teston-Bonnard 2006 ; Lefeuvre 2006 ;
    Dostie et Pusch 2007).


L’objectif du colloque sera d’apporter quelques éléments de réponses aux
questions suivantes, à partir d’un examen minutieux de marqueurs qui, en
français actuel, c’est-à-dire en français en usage dans les années 2000,
expriment à la fois des sens grammaticaux et des sens discursifs, tels
parce que (cf. Debaisieux 1994), comme si, pis, mais, genre et quoi
(Lefeuvre, Morel et Teston-Bonnard 2011) :

1) Quels sont les types de marqueurs grammaticaux également appelés à
   exprimer des sens discursifs et pourquoi (quelles sont leurs valeurs
   générales, à quelles classes grammaticales appartiennent-ils, etc.) ?


2) Comment aborder, en synchronie, la polysémie des marqueurs qui
   expriment tantôt des sens grammaticaux, tantôt des sens discursifs ?
   En particulier, l’approche selon laquelle il existerait
   systématiquement un invariant sémantique en langue est-elle
   défendable pour ce type d’unités lexicales ?


3) Quelle part réserver à la synonymie dans le domaine ciblé ? Ainsi, la
   synonymie exacte (en langue) entre deux marqueurs est-elle possible à
   grande échelle (c’est-à-dire autrement que de manière ponctuelle)
   dans un style communicatif donné (par exemple, dans la langue parlée
   familière ou encore dans la langue parlée usitée en contexte formel)?

4) Comment aborder la problématique de l’association, entre eux, des
   marqueurs à valeur grammaticale, d’une part, et des marqueurs à
   valeur discursive, d’autre part ? La notion de ‘collocation’ (ou de
   ‘semi-figement’) a-t-elle sa place ici et si oui, comment la
   modéliser ?

5) Comment représenter, de manière optimale, les sens et les diverses
   propriétés formelles des marqueurs grammaticaux et discursifs dans
   les ouvrages de référence (c’est-à-dire dans les dictionnaires et les
   grammaires) ? Y aurait-il lieu de développer des systèmes de
   représentations complémentaires à ceux qui servent de point d’ancrage
   aux ouvrages de référence traditionnels ? Si oui, quelles formes ces
   systèmes devraient-ils prendre ?

Les différentes questions formulées ci-dessus seront abordées par le
biais de données authentiques susceptibles d’alimenter, en filigrane, la
réflexion relative à la dia-variation lexicale en français actuel
(diatopique, diastratique et diaphasique) dans les domaines ciblés par
le colloque.

Workshop on Optimizing understanding in multilingual hospital encounters

October 20th, 2013 - University of Paris 13, Paris (F)

http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Workshops_hospital.html

In conjunction with the International Conference on Terminology and
Artificial Intelligence TIA 2013
*****************************************************
dead-line for paper submission: September 10th, 2013
*****************************************************

In this workshop we will bring together participants who have solutions
for one or more of the following problems: How can mutual understanding
be optimized with the help of technology in hospitals where both
patients and professionals have varying language skills, cultural
backgrounds and cognitive capacities? Can domain ontologies, natural
language processing tools, multilingual knowledge-based tools,
multilingual terminology resources and other semantic technologies be
combined in order to enhance the quality of mutual understanding between
humans?

Multi-language web apps already exist that make it easier for different
health professionals to improve communication through the use of
terminology and phrases like standard questions and explanations in
multiple languages. We solicit ideas on how technology can optimize the
usability of this type of resource and of other types of resources and
on how new technologies can reuse all types of existing terminological
resources.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers from several
domains, and practitioners from industry, academia and health policy
making bodies to report on recent developments, achievements, technology
trends and research results on projects concerning the optimization of
understanding in multilingual hospital encounters and the possibilities
of applying web-based technologies to this end.


What follows is a non-exhaustive list of topics of interest for this
workshop.

. One of the topics is how cloud-based technology can optimize
  understanding in caretaker - caregiver communication in a variety of
  hospital settings where misunderstanding might be lurking because of
  incompatible language skills, cultural differences, terminology,
  etc. We welcome contributions in the field of current semantic
  web-based technologies, techniques and tools with the aim of reusing
  distributed data on the web and exploring web- based health
  applications.

. We also solicit examples of service-oriented collective intelligence
  and language resource interoperability. How can existing hospital
  infrastructures of several kinds be designed for caregivers and for
  caretakers as end users?

. A clinical pathway is a decision-tree based on clinical assessment
  that guides the triage, history taking and further examination of a
  patient with a particular clinical problem. We solicit examples of
  clinical pathways for identifying and treating specific disorders at
  triage and history taking in hospital emergency wards where caretakers
  and patients do not speak the same language, in which the linguistic
  and cultural background of a patient are taken into consideration.

. General-purpose machine translation tools are not reliable for the
  translation of medical records. We solicit examples of the use of
  machine translation tools (trained to target specific domains in
  medicine?) to enhance understanding between caregivers and caretakers
  in well-defined contexts.

We invite you to send a short paper (4 pages, presentation time 15
minutes)

[An English text follows.]


Dans le cadre du 10e colloque international Terminologie et Intelligence
Artificielle (TIA) qui se tiendra à l’Université Paris 13 du 28 au 30
octobre 2013 (http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Home.html), est
organisé un atelier sur le thème suivant :

Mouvements des termes et impact sur les ressources spécialisées

Depuis les années 1990, les travaux menés en terminologie ont clairement
montré que les termes sont sujets à variation. Parallèlement, on sait
aujourd’hui que les causes de la variation terminologique sont
nombreuses, ce que montre notamment Judit Freixa dans un article paru en
2004.

Dans de nombreux cas, la variation terminologique résulte de «
mouvements » des termes et des concepts, mouvements qui s’effectuent
dans le temps (on parlera alors de variation diachronique) ou dans
l’espace (variation diatopique), comme l’illustre la variation
topolectale observable dans certains domaines entre la France, la Suisse
et le Québec, par exemple.  Bien que moins décrite, la variation
terminologique peut aussi se situer sur le plan social (variation
diastratique). Par ailleurs, d’autres causes de mouvements lexicaux
méritent une attention particulière dans une perspective
terminologique. C’est le cas, entre autres, des liens entre domaines et
du passage d’unités lexicales de la langue générale vers les langues de
spécialité, et inversement (terminologisation et déterminologisation,
phénomènes décrits et nommés par Ingrid Meyer).

Bien que ces mouvements lexicaux soient attestés et — au moins
partiellement — décrits, le point de vue généralement adopté sur le
terme, en fonction de domaines de spécialité cloisonnés et en
synchronie, ne permet pas de décrire et de saisir adéquatement ces
mouvements et, de fait, de les traiter en terminologie. L’étude
théorique de la variation devrait pourtant déboucher sur des approches
méthodologiques visant une prise en charge terminographique des divers
types de variation dans les dictionnaires électroniques, les bases de
données lexicales et les ontologies.

Partant de ce constat, l’objectif de l’atelier est de nourrir la
réflexion sur la nature, l’impact et les besoins de prise en charge de
la variation terminologique pour la communication spécialisée et/ou dans
les ressources terminographiques, à travers le prisme des différents
types de « mouvements » qui la conditionnent. Nous espérons réunir des
chercheurs provenant de disciplines variées (terminologie, linguistique
de corpus, lexicologie, lexicographie et informatique, sciences
cognitives, etc.), dont les différents regards permettront d’enrichir la
réflexion sur le sujet.



Principaux thèmes

Axe 1 : Identification du besoin de prise en compte de la variation
terminologique liée à des mouvements lexicaux (diachroniques,
diatopiques, diastratiques, etc.)

o Etudes de cas ou exemples qui mettent en évidence l’importance d’une
  prise en compte pour différents contextes (ex. terminologie,
  traduction, construction ou enrichissement d’ontologies, recherche
  d’information, lexicographie, etc.)

o Impact sur la gestion des connaissances ou la gestion du risque
  langagier ; solutions envisagées pour y répondre

Axe 2 : Propositions méthodologiques de repérage ou de traitement de la
variation terminologique

o Utilisation de corpus spécialisés comparables, comparaison de
  ressources, utilisation d’ontologies, outils, annotations, etc.

o Utilisation du web comme corpus de repérage

Axe 3 : Prise en charge de la variation dans les ressources
terminographiques, lexicographiques ou les ontologies

o Modalités de prise en charge des mouvements lexicaux dans différents
  types de ressources

o Propositions de formalisation pour différentes applications

o Atouts et limites de la prise en charge

Cette liste n’est pas exhaustive, et toute proposition de question ou de
problématisation sera la bienvenue.

*** Extended deadline : 15 September 2013

As a satellite event to the 10th International Conference on Terminology
and Artificial Intelligence (TIA) that will take place at Université
Paris 13 from October 28th to October 30th 2013 (
http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Home.html), the following
multidisciplinary workshop will be held:

Lexical movement and its impact on specialised resources

Since the 1990’s, research in terminology has clearly demonstrated that
terms are subject to variation. It is now a known fact that the causes
for terminological variation are numerous, as described by Judit Freixa
in an article published in 2004.

In many cases, terminological variation is the result of different
"movements" of terms and concepts which are happening either in time (we
then speak of diachronic variation) or space (diatopic variation) as can
be observed through the regional variation between France, Switzerland
and Quebec, for example. Similarly, although less described,
terminological variation can also happen at the social level (diastratic
variation). Other causes of lexical movements also need to be
investigated from a terminological perspective, such as the links
between subject fields and the migration of terms from general language
to specialized languages, or vice-versa (the terminologization and
determinologisation phenomena, as described and named by Ingrid Meyer).

Although these movements are documented and—at least
partially—described, the point of view generally adopted to describe
terms, which is subject-specific and synchronic, does not allow for an
adequate description and understanding of those movements, which are
not, consequently, adequately handled in the framework of
terminology. The study of term variation from a theoretical point of
view should lead to methodological approaches which would allow for the
proper management of the different types of variation in electronic
dictionaries, lexical databases and ontologies.

Based on these observations, the objective of this workshop is to fuel
reflection on the nature of terminological variation, its impacts, and
what would be required to support terminological variation for
specialized communication and/or terminographical resources, through the
various types of "movements" such variation is built on. This workshop
hopes to bring together researchers from disciplines such as
terminology, corpus linguistics, lexicology, lexicography, computer
science and cognitive science in order to gain different perspectives on
the subject.



Topics

Topic 1 – Identification of the need to take into account terminological
variation related to lexical movements (diachronic, diatopic,
diastratic, etc.).

o Case studies or examples that show the importance of taking variation
  into account in various contexts related to terminology, translation,
  ontology building or enrichment, information retrieval, lexicography,
  etc.

o Impact on knowledge management and linguistic risk mitigation, and
  potential solutions for such problems

Topic 2 - Methodological proposals for tracking or processing variation

o Using specialized comparable corpus, resources comparison, use of
  ontologies, tools, annotations, etc.

o Using the Web as corpus for tracking

Topic 3 - Methods for taking variation into account in terminographical
and lexicographical resources or ontologies

o Methods to handle lexical movements in different types of resources

o Proposed formalization for different applications

o Strengths and limitations

This list is not closed and propositions for any related issues are
welcome.

CALL FOR PAPERS 
====================================================================== 

The 9th International Conference on 
SIGNAL IMAGE TECHNOLOGY & INTERNET-BASED SYSTEMS (SITIS’13) 
December 2 - 5, 2013 

In cooperation with ACM SIGAPP French Chapter and 
IEEE Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing 

Kyoto Terrsa, Japan 

http://www.sitis-conf.org/ 

====================================================================== 

The SITIS conference is dedicated to research on the technologies used
to represent, share and process information in various forms, ranging
from signal, image, and multimedia data to traditional structured data
and semi-structured data found in the web.

SITIS spans two inter-related research domains that increasingly play a
key role in connecting systems across network centric environments to
allow distributed computing and information sharing.

SITIS 2013 aims to provide a forum for high quality presentations on
research activities centered on three main tracks:

- The first track titled "Web Computing and Applications (WeCA)" focuses
  on emerging and novel concepts, architectures, technologies, and
  methodologies for information management related to the Web and cloud
  computing. In essence, the Web, with its different versions, has
  created an interconnected world in which information can be exchanged
  easily, tasks can be processed collaboratively, communities of users
  with similarly interests can be formed to achieve efficiency and
  improve performance, etc. Taking full advantage of these
  interconnected environments to meet the ever increasing needs of
  emerging applications requires solutions that address new issues and
  challenges. The track calls for research papers and reports directed
  at several areas including: Data Semantics, Web-Centric Systems, Big
  Data, Information System Interoperability, Cloud, Cooperative
  information and Distributed Systems, and Information security

- The second track titled "Signal & Image Technologies (SIT)" focuses on
  recent developments in digital signal processing and pays particular
  attention to evolutions in audiovisual signal processing, analysis,
  coding and authentication, and retrieval techniques.  The track calls
  for research papers and reports directed at several areas
  including:Image Processing and Analysis, Signal processing,
  Image/Video Coding and Authentication, and Applications

- The third track titled "Multimedia Information Retrieval and
  Application (MIRA)" focuses on emerging modeling, representation and
  retrieval techniques that take into account the amount, type and
  diversity of multimedia information accessible in distributed
  computing environment.  The internet, social networking, multimedia
  databases and management of multimedia cultural collections have
  created the need for cross-fields models, paradigms and techniques for
  efficient modeling, management and consumption of multimedia
  contents. The track calls for research papers and reports directed at
  several areas including Multimedia Query and Retrieval; Mobile and
  Location-Based Media, Social media and Social networking, Multimedia
  Security, and Multimedia Arts, Entertainment and Digital Culture.


Submission and publication 
-------------------------- 

The conference will include keynote addresses, tutorials, and regular
and workshop sessions. SITIS 2013 invites submission of high quality and
original papers on the topics of the major tracks described below.  All
submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers for
technical merit, originality, significance and relevance to track
topics.

Papers must be up to 8 pages and follow IEEE double columns publication
format.  Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings
and published by IEEE Computer Society and referenced in IEEE explore
and major indexes.

Important dates

                 Journal of Language Modelling

                     SPECIAL ISSUE ON

       High-level Methodologies for Grammar Engineering

	  	 http://jlm.ipipan.waw.pl/


Special Issue Description 
-------------------------

Many grammatical frameworks have been proposed over the last decades to
describe the syntax (and semantics) of natural language. Among the most
widely used, one may cite (in chronological order) Tree-Adjoining
Grammar (TAG) [Joshi et al., 1975], Lexical-Functional Grammar (LFG)
[Bresnan and Kaplan, 1982], Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG)
[Steedman, 1987], or Head- driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG)
[Pollard and Sag, 1994]. These frameworks present theoretical and
practical interests. From a theoretical point of view, they provide a
formal device for the linguist to experiment with her/his theories.
from a practical point of view, they make it possible to automatically
process natural language in applications such as dialog systems, machine
translation, etc. They differ in their expressivity and complexity. Some
prove more suitable for the description of a given language than
others. Still, for many of these frameworks, large resources (e.g.,
grammars) have been designed, at first by hand, and later via dedicated
tools (e.g., integrated grammar environments such as XLE for LFG [King
et al., 2000]). In this Special Issue, we are concerned with this
complex task of grammar engineering, keeping in mind the two
above-mentioned theoretical and practical interests.

2e APPEL À COMMUNICATIONS

Journée d’Etude
L’annotation de la subjectivité langagière
Méthodes, Modélisation, Outils, Retours d’expérience

3 octobre 2013
Maison de la Recherche, Université Paris-Sorbonne, 28 rue Serpente 
75006 Paris

Fédération de recherche ILF (Institut de la Langue Française)
Consortium Corpus Ecrits, Groupe de travail Annotation de haut niveau

Depuis quelques années, le thème de la recherche d’informations dans de
très grands corpus et sur le WEB, tout particulièrement dans le domaine
de l’expression des émotions et des opinions (sentiment analysis),
intéresse de nombreux spécialistes tant dans le domaine des sciences du
langage que dans celui des industries de la langue. D’autre part, le
consortium Corpus Ecrits de l’ILF est impliqué dans un projet de
création d’un grand corpus de référence du français.
C’est dans ce contexte que s’inscrit la journée d’étude du Groupe de
travail Annotation de haut niveau (consortium Corpus Ecrits de l’ILF) du
3 octobre 2013. Elle sera l’occasion de cibler plus particulièrement le
thème de l’annotation de la subjectivité langagière, en vue d’un tour
d’horizon des premiers résultats obtenus et des travaux en cours.

Les études visées pourront porter sur :

- la linguistique des émotions et des sentiments
- la linguistique des opinions
- les phénomènes énonciatifs relevant de l’expression de la subjectivité
- ou de manière plus ciblée, sur les aspects et les facettes des
  jugements évaluatifs : point de vue (engagement, prise en charge),
  polarité, intensité, identité, etc.

La problématique de l’annotation peut être abordée selon les 
perspectives suivantes :

- la modélisation linguistique et informatique de la subjectivité
  langagière
- l’expression en langue et en discours
- la construction, l’acquisition et la validation des ressources
  linguistiques (dictionnaires, corpus...)
- les méthodes et les outils pour identifier, annoter et extraire
  opinions et sentiments dans des documents textuels ou audiovisuels
- la présentation synthétique de la diversité des contenus subjectifs.

L’annotation des données langagières soulève de nombreuses questions,
touchant par exemple à la nature de l’objet à annoter (notion, forme,
structure), au choix des corpus et des stratégies d’annotation (manuelle
ou automatique), à la délimitation des phénomènes à annoter, à la
gestion des cas particuliers, aux compétences des annotateurs (naïfs ou
experts).
Il s’agira de déterminer comment les travaux actuels sur la subjectivité
se saisissent de ces questions, et quelles réponses ils apportent.


TYPES DE COMMUNICATION
Les auteurs peuvent présenter leurs travaux sous forme d’une
communication orale, d’un poster ou d’une démonstration informatique.

MODALITÉS DE SOUMISSION

Les propositions de communications devront se présenter sous la forme
d’un résumé de 2 à 3 pages, bibliographie incluse (Times New Roman 12,

*Extension de date*

[An English text follows.]

Dans le cadre du 10^e colloque international Terminologie et
Intelligence Artificielle (TIA) qui se tiendra à l'Université Paris 13
du 28 au 30 octobre 2013
(http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Home.html), est organisé un
atelier sur le thème suivant :

*Mouvements des termes et impact sur les ressources spécialisées*

Depuis les années 1990, les travaux menés en terminologie ont clairement
montré que les termes sont sujets à variation. Parallèlement, on sait
aujourd'hui que les causes de la variation terminologique sont
nombreuses, ce que montre notamment Judit Freixa dans un article paru en
2004.

Dans de nombreux cas, la variation terminologique résulte de «
mouvements » des termes et des concepts, mouvements qui s'effectuent
dans le temps (on parlera alors de variation diachronique) ou dans
l'espace (variation diatopique), comme l'illustre la variation
topolectale observable dans certains domaines entre la France, la Suisse
et le Québec, par exemple. Bien que moins décrite, la variation
terminologique peut aussi se situer sur le plan social (variation
diastratique). Par ailleurs, d'autres causes de mouvements lexicaux
méritent une attention particulière dans une perspective terminologique.
C'est le cas, entre autres, des liens entre domaines et du passage
d'unités lexicales de la langue générale vers les langues de spécialité,
et inversement (terminologisation et déterminologisation, phénomènes
décrits et nommés par Ingrid Meyer).

Bien que ces mouvements lexicaux soient attestés et --- au moins
partiellement --- décrits, le point de vue généralement adopté sur le
terme, en fonction de domaines de spécialité cloisonnés et en
synchronie, ne permet pas de décrire et de saisir adéquatement ces
mouvements et, de fait, de les traiter en terminologie. L'étude
théorique de la variation devrait pourtant déboucher sur des approches
méthodologiques visant une prise en charge terminographique des divers
types de variation dans les dictionnaires électroniques, les bases de
données lexicales et les ontologies.

Partant de ce constat, l'objectif de l'atelier est de nourrir la
réflexion sur la nature, l'impact et les besoins de prise en charge de
la variation terminologique pour la communication spécialisée et/ou dans
les ressources terminographiques, à travers le prisme des différents
types de « mouvements » qui la conditionnent. Nous espérons réunir des
chercheurs provenant de disciplines variées (terminologie, linguistique
de corpus, lexicologie, lexicographie et informatique, sciences
cognitives, etc.), dont les différents regards permettront d'enrichir la
réflexion sur le sujet.

*Principaux thèmes*

* Axe 1 : Identification du besoin de prise en compte de la variation
  terminologique liée à des mouvements lexicaux (diachroniques,
  diatopiques, diastratiques, etc.)*

 o Etudes de cas ou exemples qui mettent en évidence l'importance d'une
   prise en compte pour différents contextes (ex. terminologie,
   traduction, construction ou enrichissement d'ontologies, recherche
   d'information, lexicographie, etc.)

 o Impact sur la gestion des connaissances ou la gestion du risque
   langagier ; solutions envisagées pour y répondre

* Axe 2 : Propositions méthodologiques de repérage ou de traitement de
  la variation terminologique*

  o Utilisation de corpus spécialisés comparables, comparaison de
    ressources, utilisation d'ontologies, outils, annotations, etc.

  o Utilisation du web comme corpus de repérage

* Axe 3 : Prise en charge de la variation dans les ressources
  terminographiques, lexicographiques ou les ontologies*

  o Modalités de prise en charge des mouvements lexicaux dans différents
    types de ressources

  o Propositions de formalisation pour différentes applications

  o Atouts et limites de la prise en charge

Cette liste n'est pas exhaustive, et toute proposition de question ou de
problématisation sera la bienvenue.

*2^nd call for papers + deadline extension *

As a satellite event to the 10^th International Conference on
Terminology and Artificial Intelligence (TIA) that will take place at
Université Paris 13 from October 28^th to October 30^th 2013
(http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Home.html), the following
multidisciplinary workshop will be held:

*Lexical movement and its impact on specialised resources*

Since the 1990's, research in terminology has clearly demonstrated that
terms are subject to variation. It is now a known fact that the causes
for terminological variation are numerous, as described by Judit Freixa
in an article published in 2004.

In many cases, terminological variation is the result of different
"movements" of terms and concepts which are happening either in time (we
then speak of diachronic variation) or space (diatopic variation) as can
be observed through the regional variation between France, Switzerland
and Quebec, for example. Similarly, although less described,
terminological variation can also happen at the social level (diastratic
variation). Other causes of lexical movements also need to be
investigated from a terminological perspective, such as the links
between subject fields and the migration of terms from general language
to specialized languages, or vice-versa (the terminologization and
determinologisation phenomena, as described and named by Ingrid Meyer).

Although these movements are documented and---at least
partially---described, the point of view generally adopted to describe
terms, which is subject-specific and synchronic, does not allow for an
adequate description and understanding of those movements, which are
not, consequently, adequately handled in the framework of terminology.
The study of term variation from a theoretical point of view should lead
to methodological approaches which would allow for the proper management
of the different types of variation in electronic dictionaries, lexical
databases and ontologies.

Based on these observations, the objective of this workshop is to fuel
reflection on the nature of terminological variation, its impacts, and
what would be required to support terminological variation for
specialized communication and/or terminographical resources, through the
various types of "movements" such variation is built on. This workshop
hopes to bring together researchers from disciplines such as
terminology, corpus linguistics, lexicology, lexicography, computer
science and cognitive science in order to gain different perspectives on
the subject.

*Topics*

* Topic 1 -- Identification of the need to take into account
  terminological variation related to lexical movements (diachronic,
  diatopic, diastratic, etc.).*

  o Case studies or examples that show the importance of taking
    variation into account in various contexts related to terminology,
    translation, ontology building or enrichment, information retrieval,
    lexicography, etc.

  o Impact on knowledge management and linguistic risk mitigation, and
    potential solutions for such problems

* Topic 2 - Methodological proposals for tracking or processing
  variation*

  o Using specialized comparable corpus, resources comparison, use of
    ontologies, tools, annotations, etc.

  o Using the Web as corpus for tracking

* Topic 3 - Methods for taking variation into account in
  terminographical and lexicographical resources or ontologies*

  o Methods to handle lexical movements in different types of resources

  o Proposed formalization for different applications

  o Strengths and limitations

This list is not closed and propositions for any related issues are
welcome.

http://eacl2014.org/

Demonstrations Chair: Marko Tadić (University of Zagreb, Faculty of
Humanities and Social Sciences)

The EACL 2014 Program Committee invites proposals for the Demonstrations
Program. This program is primarily to encourage the early exhibition of
research prototypes, but interesting mature systems are also
eligible. Commercial sales and marketing activities are not appropriate
in the Demonstration program.


AREAS OF INTEREST

We would like to encourage the submission of proposals for
demonstrations of software related to any areas of computational
linguistics and natural language processing. Areas of interest include,
but are not limited to:

- Natural language processing systems, including
  + Dialog systems and interfaces
  + Machine translation systems and translation aids
  + Message and narrative understanding systems
  + Language-oriented information retrieval and information extraction
    systems
- Application systems using embedded language technology components
- Reusable components (parsers, generators, taggers, speech
  recognizers,...)
- Software tools for facilitating linguistic research
- Software for demonstrating or evaluating computational linguistics
  research
- Aids for teaching computational linguistics concepts.


FORMAT FOR SUBMISSION

Demo Proposals consist of the following parts, which should all be sent
using the EACL 2014 sub-conference submission procedure at
https://www.softconf.com/eacl2014/demos/:

- An abstract of the technical content to be demonstrated, not to exceed
  four pages formatted according to the EACL 2014 style guidelines
  (http://www.eacl2014.org/files/eacl-2014-styles.zip), including title,
  authors, full contact information, references and acknowledgements.

- A detailed description of hardware and software requirements expected
  to be provided by the local organizer. Demonstrators are encouraged to
  be flexible in their requirements (possibly with different demos for
  different logistical situations). Please state what you can bring
  yourself and what you absolutely must have provided. We will do our
  best to provide equipment and resources but nothing can be guaranteed
  at this point beyond space and power. Please contact the demo chair at
  one of the addresses below for any specific questions.

- At least one author of each accepted demo paper must register for and
  attend the conference, and demonstrate the system during the demo
  sessions


SUBMISSIONS PROCEDURE

Proposals should be submitted by 10 January 2014 using the EACL 2014
START web page for Demos: https://www.softconf.com/eacl2014/demos/.

Submissions will be evaluated on the basis of their relevance to
computational linguistics, innovation, scientific contribution,
presentation, and user friendliness, as well as potential logistical
constraints.

OTHER DETAILS

Further details on the the demonstrations sessions will be determined
and provided at a later date.

IMPORTANT DATES

- Demo proposal submissions due: 10 January 2014
- Notification to authors: 1 February 2014
- Camera-ready due: 15 February 2014
- EACL conference dates: 26-30 April 2014

Subject: Appel: Workshop LTC, Less Resourced Languages, new technologies,
 new challenges and opportunities
Message-ID: <SAT.7.SEP.2013.114649.0200.THIERRY.HAMON@UNIVPARIS13.FR>

The third LTC Workshop on "Less Resourced Languages, new technologies,
new challenges and opportunities", will be held in conjunction with the
Language Technology Conference in Poznan, Poland, on 8 December 2013.

General Conference website: http://www.ltc.amu.edu.pl/

Workshop Theme:

Many less resourced languages (LRL) that are thriving to get a place in
the digital space and that could profit of the new opportunities offered
by the Internet and digital devices will seriously face digital
extinction if they are not supported by Language Technologies. Language
Technologies (LTs, i.e. spelling and grammar checkers, electronic
dictionaries, localized interfaces, voice dictations, audio
transcriptions and subtitling, as well as multimedia/multimodal search
engines, language translators or information extraction tools) are
essential instruments to secure usability of less resourced languages
within the digital world, thus ensuring those languages equal
opportunities and raising their profile in the eyes of natives but also
non-natives from the younger, digitally-oriented generation. However,
there are many challenges to be faced to equip less resourced languages
with LTs (from basic to advanced): a substantial delay in development of
basic technologies, a lack of cooperation among languages communities, a
chronic shortage of funding (in particular for minority languages not
officially recognized, yet often the most vital ones over the Internet)
and the limited economic value placed over LTs for minority languages by
the market rules. At this critical time, this workshop seeks to continue
the debate as to what new technologies have to offer less resourced
languages, and how the research community might seek to overcome the
challenges and exploit the opportunities.

Paper submission deadline: 22 September 2013

We invite papers addressing the topics listed, but not limited to, the
ones below:

- Experiences in the development of digital applications for LRLs
- LRLs in educational and entertainment applications
- LRTs for securing access and inclusion to speakers of LRLs
- Development of LRs through crowdsourcing
- Youth-oriented applications for revitalisation of LRLs
- Experiences/models of cooperation for development of LRTs for LRLs
- Business models
- Gaps in availability of LRTs for LRLs
- Development of LTs when LRs are missing
- LR&Ts as a booster for the adoption of LRL within the digital world
- Lessons learnt from major recent infrastructure initiatives
- Infrastructures for making available LR and LT in all languages, and
  especially in the less-resourced ones
- Assessing Availability, Quality, Maturity and Sustainability of LT and
  LR , comparing the LRLs and the major ones
- Requirements for the production, validation and distribution of LR for
  less-resourced languages

Program (general framework): The workshop will comprise presentations
(including keynote talks) and a panel session, including an EC
representative . The details of the program is in preparation and will
be published soon on the conference site.

Co-Chairs: Claudia Soria (CNR-ILC, Italy), Khalid Choukri (ELRA, ELDA,

======================================

SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS

Joint Symposium on Semantic Processing:
Textual Inference and Structures in Corpora
FBK, Trento (Italy), November 20-22, 2013
http://jssp2013.fbk.eu/

Endorsed by ACL SIGLEX and ACL SIGSEM

Submission deadline: September 15, 2013

======================================


In the last decade, many Natural Language Processing tasks have matured
to a point where semantic questions, ranging from paraphrasing to
relevance assessment to disambiguation, are coming into the focus of
attention. This symposium aims at bringing together researchers from
different strands of research on semantic processing, with a focus on
two aspects.

The first is the textual inference paradigm, proposed as a unifying
generic framework that captures major semantic processing needs in
different application areas. Textual entailment research has yielded so
far a range of inference algorithms, which were mostly developed within
individual "in-house" systems. The symposium aims at addressing current
bottlenecks by discussing future research directions and perspectives
for consolidation and unification of textual inference technology. The
second aspect concerns linguistic structures, as identified by empirical
work within corpus linguistics, whose benefit for Computational
Linguistics has not yet been fully realized. The aim of the symposium is
to suggest progress towards models of language that facilitate
successful processing of semantic knowledge in natural language
applications.

The symposium is open to any research topic related to textual inference
and structures in corpora. More specifically, topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:

- Tools for textual inference
- Resources for textual inference
- Unification and consolidation in textual inference
- Textual inference in real-world scenarios
- Textual inference and other textual relations
- Evaluation methodologies of textual inference
- Multilingual and language-independent techniques for textual inference
- Cross-lingual textual entailment
- Representation of lexical and phrasal meaning: syntax-semantics
  interface
- Syntax-lexical semantics interface
- Shallow and deep semantic processing and reasoning: rule-based and
  probabilistic methods
- Learning textual inference rules from data
- Pattern extraction from corpus
- Grammar inference
- Distributional semantics
- Semantic parsing
- Modelling lexicon and context in semantic interpretation
- Semantic roles labelling
- Normalization for a broad range of semantic categories
- Design decisions in construction of semantic frames
- Extension of semantic frames
- Representing and resolving semantic ambiguity
- Context extraction for word sense disambiguation
- Open domain relation extraction
- Open domain event extraction
- Large scale event extraction and event classification
- Dynamic event relationships
- Building and using ontologies to model inference
- Computational modeling of linguistic theories
- Alignment of lexical resources
- Applications of textual inference and semantic processing

The Symposium is a joint event supported by the EU-funded project
EXCITEMENT (http://www.excitement-project.eu/), which aims to set up a
generic architecture and a comprehensive open-source platform for
multilingual textual inference, and by the B-CROCE project, which is the
beneficiary of a Marie Curie Integration grant dedicated to finding
regular structures as patterns in corpora. The symposium benefits from
the participation of a large number of keynote presentations by people
whose research has had a significant impact on semantic processing.

The symposium aims at providing a stimulating and intriguing forum for
mutual update and discussion of these research directions in semantic
processing, and we hope to attract a substantial number of involved
senior and junior researchers worldwide. To that end, the symposium will
have a special structure, including:

* A large number of keynote presentations by people whose research has
  had a significant impact in semantic processing

* Presentations of submitted papers (oral and poster sessions)

* Two panel discussions (one on each aspect of the symposium)

* Two tutorials: the textual-inference tutorial will present the new
  open-source platform provided by the EXCITEMENT project (inference
  engines, modules and knowledge resources); the other tutorial will
  focus on corpus patterns (theoretical and computational aspects of
  corpus pattern analysis, sense-stable patterns, chain clarifying
  relationships, frames, argument structures). Both tutorials include a
  hands-on session.

All the details concerning the event may be found on the Symposium's web
page http://jssp2013.fbk.eu

*Données hybrides et contextualisation des corpus. (English CFP below)**
Nouvelles approches en sciences du langage.*

23-24 mai 2014

PLEIADE (CENEL), Université Paris 13, Sorbonne Paris Cité EDA,
Éducation, Discours, Apprentissage, EA 4071, Université Paris Descartes
SYLED, Systèmes linguistiques, énonciation, discours/,/ EA 2290,
Université Sorbonne-Nouvelle, Paris 3

Aujourd'hui, les doctorants travaillent sur des corpus de plus en plus
diversifiés et multimodaux. Les corpus peuvent être livresques,
numériques, multimédia (sites internet de presse en ligne, forum...),
plurilingues ou bien encore plurisémiotiques, comme une collection
d'objets ou d'oeuvres d'art contextualisant les discours d'exposition
artistiques, des enregistrements audio-visuels dans des espaces publics
(avec la prise en compte de la gestuelle), ou encore les objets
funéraires posés sur les pierres tombales en rapport avec des épitaphes.

Face à ces corpus hétérogènes, hybrides, les sciences du langage et
l'analyse du discours n'apportent pas toujours un cadre d'analyse
adéquat. La notion d'hybridité en discours est l'objet de
questionnements et de publications (Gambier et Suomela-Salmi 2011). Par
ailleurs, les discours ou les représentations en discours contribuent à
une sémiotisation de l'espace (Turpin 2012). En revanche, les modalités
d'analyse de corpus hybrides entendus comme un ensemble de données
linguistiques en contexte, c'est-à-dire situées dans un environnement
signifiant, constituent de nouveaux points de questionnement pour notre
discipline.

Si notre objet « premier » est le discours, nous voulons le travailler
en relation avec son contexte plurisémiotique, en utilisant les
ressources qu'offrent d'autres domaines de connaissances comme
l'iconologie, souvent utile par exemple pour analyser les dessins de
presse ou encore la sémiologie. Ce colloque vise à apporter des éléments
théoriques pour une analyse discursive de corpus en contexte. Les
communications devront exposer clairement les questionnements et les
partis pris d'ordre à la fois réflexif, méthodologique ou
épistémologique quant aux traitements de données de plus en plus
hétérogènes. Il s'adresse aux doctorants en sciences du langage, et
particulièrement aux discursivistes, quelle que soit leur université de
rattachement, en France et à l'étranger.

**

*Les contributions porteront principalement sur les axes suivants, qui
pourront bien sûr être travaillés en lien : *

*--Axe 1 :**Contexte* :

- Comment prendre en compte les données environnementales dans le cadre
  d'une analyse discursive qui n'opposerait plus les contextes
  linguistiques aux contextes non linguistiques mais travaillerait ces
  deux notions en lien ?

- Quel doit être le positionnement du chercheur alors qu'il travaille
  sur des données dans des contextes « sensibles » (cf Vulbeau 2007, Lee
  1993 ou encore Lee-Trewek 2000) ?

*--Axe 2 : Corpus hybrides**plurisémiotiques *:

- Comment traiter, avec quels outils méthodologiques et
  épistémologiques, l'hétérogénéité des supports des textes et des
  discours (stèles, plaques, cartels, murs, écrans, objets de mémoire,
  objets du quotidien, documents audio-visuels...) constitutifs
  d'environnements extralinguistiques spécifiques et dans quels buts ?

- Comment traiter l'hétérogénéité des données orales, scripturales,
  iconiques, picturales, audiovisuelles, gestuelles ?

- Comment s'assurer de la pérennité des données (exemple : forums de
  discussion de l'internet, textes d'une exposition temporaire) ?

- Comment prendre en compte leur plasticité et leur mutabilité, par
  exemple : ajout de plaques funéraires anniversaires, érosion de stèles
  funéraires, évolution d'une page internet (Dervin et Paveau 2012) ?

*--Axe 3 :**Langue, texte, discours *:

- Sur le plan linguistique, comment analyser des énoncés
  décontextualisés (phrases sans textes, aphorismes, épitaphes,
  commentaires sur internet ou dans des livres d'or...) en lien avec un
  discours source contextualisé (commentaires sur une page internet en
  réaction à un article par exemple), ou extraits de ce dernier («
  petite phrase » extraite d'un discours politique par exemple) ?
  Comment faire le lien entre ces énoncés détachés et leur(s)
  contexte(s) premier(s) ?

Nowadays, doctoral students work on multimodal and diverse corpora.
These can be book- or web-based, as well as multimodal (newspaper
websites, forums...), multilingual as well as multisemiotic, as would a
collection of artifacts or art pieces contextualizing discourses around
art shows; audiovisual recordings in public spaces (with paraverbal,
behavioral perspectives as well); even funeral artifacts laid on
tombstones, completing the discourse of the epitaph.

Facing these heterogeneous, hybrid corpora, linguistics and discourse
analysis do not always supply a relevant analysis framework. The notion
of hybridity in discourse is questioned in several publications (Gambier
& Suomela-Salmi, 2011). Moreover, discourse and representations embedded
in discourse contribute to a semiotization of space (Turpin 2012).
However, the analysis of hybrid corpora, seen as an array of linguistic
data in context---located in a signifying environment---constitute as
many unique and new issues in our field(s).

Although our "primary" interest is discourse, our goal is to exploit it
with regards to its polysemiotic context, using resources offered by
other fields such as iconology (to study newspaper cartoons) or
semiology. This conference aims at giving theoretical frameworks for a
discursivist analysis of corpora in context. The papers will aim at
clearly define reflexive, methodological or epistemological questions
and biases when it comes to analyze heterogeneous data. It aims at
bringing together PhD Students and young researchers in
linguistics---particularly discursivists---from all French or foreign
universities.

*Talks will be based on the following areas, which could be combined: *

*Area 1 --- Context: *

- How to account for environmental data in discourse analysis which does
  not oppose linguistic and non-linguistic environments anymore, and
  brings them together?

- What is the position of researchers working on "sensitive" data? (Lee:
  1993, Lee-Trewek:2000; Vulbeau:2007)

*Area 2--- Hybrid, polysemiotic corpora: *

- How to deal with the heterogeneity of text supports and discourses
  (tombstones, walls, screens, souvenirs, everyday objects, audiovisual
  documents...), which represent specific, extralinguistic environments?
  To which avail? Which methodological, epistemological tools to use?

- How to deal with the heterogeneity of speech-, image-, text-,
  behavioral-based corpora?

- How to secure the conservation of corpora (internet forums, texts from 
  a temporary exhibit)?

- How to account for their plasticity and mutability---adding
  anniversary memorial stones, erosion of tombstones, evolution of
  webpages (Dervin & Paveau: 2012)?

*Area 3--- Language, text, discourse: *

- On the linguistic area, how to analyze decontextualized
  utterances---textless sentences, aphorisms, epitaphs, comments in a
  guest book...---or utterances linked to a contextualized original
  discourse---comments to an article online---or various extracts, like
  notable sentences in a political discourse? How to link
  decontextualized utterances and their original context?

*Submissions*:

Talks will be delivered primarily in French, although talks in English
will be accepted.

Contributions will comprise plenary conferences, workshop sessions,
round tables and posters (guidelines here:
http://discdoct.hypotheses.org/406).

Talks will last for 20 minutes, with a 10-minute discussion time.
Propositions will be sent to corpusetcontextes at gmail.com . Proposals (no
longer than 2500 characters, references included) will be sent in an
anonymous .doc or .docx format along with a short biographical note
(name(s), surname(s) of author(s), university...) in the body of the
email. The subject of this email will have to contain the name of the
author(s) as well as the title of the contribution.

Appel à communications pour un numéro spécial de

la Revue des Nouvelles Technologies de l'Information

FOUILLE DE DONNEES et HUMANITES NUMERIQUES

Date limite de soumission : 30 septembre 2013

Objectifs :
===========

Le but de ce numéro spécial est de regrouper des articles de chercheurs
académiques et industriels autour de la thématique de l’extraction de
connaissances en interface avec les humanités numériques. Il s'agit à la
fois de travaux de recherche aboutis donnant une idée des avancées
actuelles mais également de travaux de recherche en cours liés au
traitement informatique des données étudiées par les disciplines SHS
(sciences de l’homme et de la société). Si la rencontre de
l’informatique et des SHS n’est pas nouvelle, le contexte actuel lié au
faible coût du matériel et de la profusion des données lui donne une
autre dimension. Les articles de synthèse sont également les bienvenus.

Soumission et dates importantes :
=================================

Les articles sont rédigés en Français (exceptionnellement en Anglais
pour les non-francophones) en utilisant le style de la revue RNTI avec
une préférence forte pour LaTeX (formats de rédaction .doc et .rtf
acceptés). Ils sont soumis au format PDF. Les textes devront contenir
entre 3000 et 8000 mots.

Les dates importantes sont les suivantes :

Réception des articles : 30 septembre 2013

Notification aux auteurs : 14 novembre 2013

Versions finales : 4 décembre 2013

Parution : janvier 2014

coordinateur : Nicolas Turenne (INRA - Université Paris Est)

éditeur : Editions Hermann Paris

directeurs de collection : Djamel Zighed (ISH - Université de Lyon) et
Gilles Venturini (Université de Tours)

Thématique :
============

Nous sommes spectateurs et acteurs d’un tournant sociétal qui est admis
aujourd’hui, c’est le “tournant du numérique” transformant
l’environnement politique, économique et culturel contemporain.
L’implication de cette contribution du numérique à nos sociétés tend à
fabriquer des espaces de données de plus en plus importants nécessitant
à cet endroit des traitements spécifiques. Les disciplines SHS qui
placent l’homme au coeur des questionnements ont jusque là peu profité
des méthodes traitant des ensembles de données numériques et du
potentiel de transformation de ce tournant. Quelles nouvelles questions
peuvent se poser sur de nouvelles données, selon quels modes
d’archivage, avec quels algorithmes de recherche d’information utile «
dans une botte de documents » ? Pour ne citer que deux exemples, les
humanités numériques s’invitent déjà en sociologie, qui aborde la
démocratie d’opinion dans les réseaux sociaux, et en histoire où la
lecture numérique change l’accès à la matérialité du passé.
Dans ce numéro spécial de RNTI “Extraction de Connaissances et Humanités
Numériques”, nous cherchons des travaux qui décrivent des défis et des
débats sur des questions émergeantes du monde numérique naissant, aussi
bien que des travaux qui montrent avec ses méthodes et ses conclusions
les types de méthodologie qui peuvent être le mieux mobilisés, ou
doivent exclusivement être mobilisés, dans son sillage. Les
contributions ne doivent pas se limiter à la démonstration des avantages
et limites d’accès à certaines bases de données mais évoquer comment de
nouvelles formes d’informations produisent de nouvelles façons de penser
aussi bien du point de vue de l’extraction des connaissances que des
disciplines de SHS.
Nous invitons les contributeurs à considérer le large spectre des
méthodes et des usages dans des projets émergeants et existants,
incluant l’extraction des connaissances, l’archivage distribué,
l’interopérabilité, la visualisation des connaissances, la linguistique
de corpus, les systèmes d’information géographiques... Les données
seront issues du monde des sciences de l’homme et de la société (SHS) :
culturelles, littéraires, philosophiques, économiques, psychologiques,
sociologiques, d’opinions, ethnologiques, démographiques, géographiques,
historiques, musicologiques, archéologiques, architecturales,
juridiques, théologiques...

TITRE :
Méthodes d’analyse sémantique statistique pour l’extraction de
connaissances à partir de corpus semi-annotés

MOTS CLEFS : 
Analyse sémantique, Apprentissage actif, Interaction Homme-Machine, Dialogue naturel

CONTEXTE :
Le sujet de post-doctorat se rapporte à la problématique de l’analyse
sémantique dans les systèmes dialogue en général. L’analyse sémantique
consiste à transformer un énoncé dans une interprétation (catégorie
sémantique) pour permettre au système de dialogue de poursuivre ses
calculs. L’analyseur sémantique de Disserto s’appuie sur une approche à
base de règles. Le traitement s’effectue en deux étapes : étiqueter les
mots en « tags », puis appliquer les règles sémantiques appropriées aux
tags, de telle manière qu’une combinaison ou association donnée de tags
fournisse une interprétation correcte. Ce principe d’analyse sémantique
à base de règles d’étiquetage et d’association peut être utilisé dans
n’importe quelle langue. 

Cependant, cette méthode est manuelle et nécessite l’intervention d’un
développeur (knowledge engineer). Ce dernier va analyser un corpus de
phrases issues d’interactions de différents utilisateurs avec le service
de dialogue, afin d’élaborer les règles d’analyse sémantiques les plus
pertinentes. Les phrases contenues dans ce type de corpus peuvent être :

- non annotées (par exemple lorsqu’elles sont issues des logs d’un
  service en exploitation)

- annotées manuellement par un opérateur : par exemple dans le cas de
  service mettant en œuvre des fonctions de magicien d’Oz sur la
  reconnaissance vocale (on parle alors de Reconnaissance Vocal Assistée
  par Opérateur) ou sur l’analyse sémantique (illustrée dans
  l’application DissertOz).


Le rôle du post-doctorant sera de développer de nouveaux algorithmes et
de fournir les outils associés qui permettent de faciliter et
d’optimiser le travail du développeur lors de l’élaboration des règles
d’analyse sémantique de Disserto. 

Les travaux du post-doctorant seront menés sur 2 champs : 

- la sélection automatique des phrases les plus pertinentes à prendre en
  compte pour la définition des nouvelles règles d’analyse sémantique:
  phrases avec de nouveaux mots, tags, règles ou interprétations.

- l’étude des énoncés conduisant à une interprétation erronée de
  l’analyseur de manière à identifier des termes communs, à donner des
  explications de l’erreur et à détecter les énoncés « poubelle » à
  rejeter (trash).

Ce sujet est la suite d’un travail accompli par l’université de Poznań
en 2011 et 2012 dans le cadre d’un contrat de recherche externe sous la
direction d’Orange.

TACHES :
Prendre en main les algorithmes développés par l’université de Poznań et
les améliorer :

- Calcul de score de confiance de la classification de l’analyseur
  sémantique pour un énoncé donné

- Identification de règles d’association liant les formes des énoncés
  aux erreurs de classification de l’analyseur sémantique

- Détection des énoncés poubelle

Sur la base de corpus non-annotés de taille gigantesque (plusieurs
millions d’énoncés) et de corpus annotés de taille réduite (plusieurs
milliers d’énoncés), définir un algorithme d’apprentissage actif
permettant :

- de repérer les « trous » d’annotation, c'est-à-dire les formes
  d’énoncés fréquentes du corpus non-annotés qui ne sont pas, ou peu,
  représenté dans le corpus annoté

- de prédire les énoncés les plus pertinents pour être annotés, sur la
  base du calcul de score de confiance en l’analyseur sémantique

- de sélectionner l’ensemble optimal de n énoncés à annoter, en évitant
  les redondances et en contrôlant que les informations apportées par
  ces annotations se complètent.

Rédiger un rapport d’étude sur les méthodes et algorithmes développés
lors de cette étude et sur leur évaluation.

NATURE DU FINANCEMENT :

Annonce de séminaire :

Le 24 Septembre, nous recevrons Nathalie Guin du LIRIS (Univ. Claude
Berbard Lyon). Elle nous présentera son travail de recherche sur
l'explicitation de connaissances pour la personnalisation des
Environnements Informatiques pour l’Apprentissage Humain (EIAH).  Le
séminaire aura lieu à 14h au LIMSI (Orsay) en salle de conférences
(bâtiment 508).

-------


*Titre* : Explicitation de connaissances pour la personnalisation des EIAH

*Résumé* : Les Environnements Informatiques pour l’Apprentissage Humain
(EIAH) sont des outils destinés à favoriser l’apprentissage, dans des
contextes variés, par exemple en classe avec un enseignant, ou bien à
distance dans un contexte d’apprentissage ouvert et massif comme dans
les MOOCs. Quel que soit le contexte, l’un des enjeux majeurs de ces
environnements est l’individualisation de l’enseignement : permettre à
l’apprenant d’apprendre à son rythme, avec un contenu pédagogique adapté
à ses besoins. Nous explorerons dans cet exposé les différentes
questions de recherches soulevées par la conception d’EIAH proposant des
activités adaptées à chaque apprenant : comment modéliser l’apprenant en
analysant ses interactions avec le système, comment utiliser une
stratégie de personnalisation, comment générer des activités répondant à
cette stratégie. Nous présenterons en particulier les méthodes que nous
utilisons pour permettre à des utilisateurs non informaticiens tels que
des enseignants d’expliciter les connaissances nécessaires à de tels
systèmes, et nous ouvrirons une discussion sur d’autres manière
d’acquérir ces connaissances.

EACL 2014 STUDENT RESEARCH WORKSHOP
The 14th Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for
Computational Linguistics
Gothenburg, Sweden
26-30 April 2014
http://eacl2014.org/

CALL FOR PAPERS
** Submission deadline: Friday, 22 November 2013; 11:59pm CET ** 


I. General Invitation for Submissions
-------------------------------------

EACL 2014 continues the tradition of providing a forum for student
researchers who are investigating various areas related to Computational
Linguistics and Natural Language Processing. The workshop provides an
excellent opportunity for student participants to present their work and
receive valuable feedback from the international research community as
well as from selected panelists - experienced researchers who will
prepare in-depth comments and questions in advance of the
presentation. The workshop's goal is to aid students at multiple stages
of their education: from those in the final stages of undergraduate
training to those active with graduate thesis research.

We invite papers in two separate categories:

1. Thesis/Research Proposals: This category is appropriate for students
   who wish to get feedback on the progress of their thesis work and
   broader ideas from the field in order to identify the most promising
   directions for the remaining thesis work.

2. Research Papers: Most appropriate for students who are new to
   academic conferences. Papers in this category can describe completed
   original work or work in progress with preliminary results.

Topics relevant to the workshop aim to cover all aspects of
Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing, including,
but not limited to (in alphabetical order):

- Cognitive modeling of language processing and psycholinguistics 
- Dialogue and interactive systems 
- Discourse, coreference and pragmatics 
- Evaluation methods 
- Information retrieval
- Language resources
- Lexical semantics and ontologies 
- Machine translation: methods, applications and evaluation 
- Multilinguality in NLP 
- NLP applications 
- NLP and creativity 
- NLP for low-resource languages
- NLP for the Web and social media
- Question answering 
- Semantics 
- Sentiment analysis, opinion mining and text classification 
- Spoken language processing 
- Statistical and Machine Learning methods in NLP 
- Summarization and generation 
- Syntax and parsing 
- Tagging and chunking
- Text mining and information extraction 
- Word segmentation   

Subject to the availability of established researcher volunteers, each
accepted paper will be assigned a mentor, an experienced researcher who
will provide feedback on the work to the student at the
conference. Details on this service will be provided in the acceptance
notification.


II. Submission guidelines
-------------------------

A) Submission requirements

1. Thesis/Research Proposals may contain previously published work and
   must include specific research directions. They may also be in the
   style of a position paper that surveys and critiques existing
   literature, but must suggest future research directions. Proposals
   may only have one author, who must be a student.

2. Research Papers must describe original completed work or work in
   progress. Since the main purpose of presenting at the workshop is to
   exchange ideas with other researchers and to receive helpful feedback
   for further development of the work, papers should clearly indicate
   directions for future research wherever appropriate. The first author
   of multi-author papers must be a student, but additional co-authors
   need not be students. Research Papers are eligible for this workshop
   only if they have not been presented at any other meeting with
   publicly available published proceedings. Students who have already
   presented at a past ACL/EACL/NAACL Student Research Workshop may not
   submit to this track as a first author (though they may still be a
   co-author, or the first author of a Thesis/Research Proposal). These
   students are instead encouraged to submit their work to the main
   conference or to the Thesis Proposal track. During submission,
   students must clearly indicate whether a paper has been submitted to
   another conference or workshop. Double submissions to the EACL main
   conference and the Student Research Workshop are not allowed. One
   student can only submit one paper to the Research Papers track as the
   first author.

B) Submission procedure

Both paper and proposal submissions to the EACL 2014 Student Research
Workshop should follow the standard two-column format of the EACL 2014
proceedings and they must be submitted as a PDF file. Authors are
strongly recommended to use the style files from the conference web
site. The style files are available here:

- http://www.eacl2014.org/files/eacl-2014-styles.zip

All submissions may consist of up to nine (9) pages of content only. Any
number of additional pages containing references is allowed.

The reviewing process will be double-blind; therefore, please ensure
that the paper does not include the authors' names and
affiliations. Furthermore, self-references that reveal the author's
identity, e.g., "We previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...", should be
avoided. Instead, use citations such as "Smith previously showed (Smith,
1991) ...". Further guidelines are provided in the template style files.
References to your own work in thesis proposals should also be
anonymized. You may for example write it as "in X (2000) we showed",
etc. and do not add your papers in the reference list. Authors should
not use other anonymous citations in both research papers and thesis
proposals, and should not include any acknowledgments. Papers that do
not conform to these requirements will be rejected without review.

The deadline for submission is 11:59pm CET on Friday, 22 November
2013. Submission will be electronic using the paper submission web page:

- https://www.softconf.com/eacl2014/srw/

Papers will be presented orally or as posters during the main EACL
conference as determined by the program committee. Decisions on
presentation format will be based on the nature rather than the quality
of the work. There will be no distinction in the proceedings between
long papers presented orally and as posters.

C) Multiple-submission policy

Papers that have been or will be submitted to other meetings or
publications must indicate this at submission time. Authors of papers
accepted for presentation at EACL SRW 2014 must notify the program
chairs whether the paper will be presented. All accepted papers must be
presented at the workshop in order for them to appear in the
proceedings. We will not accept for publication or presentation papers
that overlap significantly in content or results with papers that will
be (or have been) published elsewhere. Double submissions to the EACL
main conference and the Student Research Workshop are not allowed, and
the authors must ensure that these submissions do not overlap
significantly (> 50%) with each other in content or results.

D) Reviewing procedure

The reviewing of the papers will be double-blind. Reviewing will be
managed by the Student Workshop Co-Chairs and a team of reviewers. Each
submission will be matched with a mixed panel of student and senior
researchers for review. The final acceptance decision will be based on
the results of the review.


III. Important dates
--------------------

- Submission deadline: 22 November 2013
- Notification of acceptance: 13 January 2014
- Camera-ready submission deadline: 17 February 2014
- Conference dates: 26-30 April 2014 

(The workshop will be held during the main conference, in a mode similar
to the conference's regular sessions. The exact format will be decided
by the workshop co-chairs and conference chairs.)

10th International Conference on Terminology and Artificial Intelligence

Paris 13 University, Paris Sorbonne cité - Villetaneuse (close to
Paris), France
      ***********************************************************

** Overview **

TIA 2013 will be the 10th in a series of successful events which, for
the most part, initially took place in the francophone world. Over a
period of almost 20 years – the first conference was held in 1995 – TIA
has increasingly attracted the attention of many researchers and
practitioners all over the world, and its work has become truly
international.

The aim of TIA 2013 is to provide an overview of the new ways in which
multilingual terminology is present in an ever-increasing networked
society, and to pay special attention both to the methods applied in the
conceptualization of domain knowledge and to the applications and tools
that will meet the requirements of e-society. In this way, terminology,
linguistics and knowledge engineering provide the basis on which many
other disciplines develop their applications such as domain ontologies,
natural language processing tools, multilingual knowledge-based tools
and web-based linguistic applications. New approaches to the
standardization and to the reuse and integration of different tools
designed to facilitate work in institutions, companies and society in
general will be welcome.

The TIA 2013 Conference aims to promote interdisciplinary research
focusing on the intersection of different disciplines that deal with
terminological aspects and knowledge engineering resources. Papers may
address both theoretical questions and methodological aspects on these
issues, as well as interdisciplinary approaches developed to facilitate
convergence and co-operation in terminological aspects of importance to
society.

** Practical information **

The conference will held from October 28th to October 29th, workshops on
October 30th.

Workshop on Optimizing understanding in multilingual hospital encounters

October 20th, 2013 - University of Paris 13, Paris (F)

http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Workshops_hospital.html

In conjunction with the International Conference on Terminology and
Artificial Intelligence TIA 2013

*****************************************************
dead-line for paper submission: September 10th, 2013
*****************************************************

In this workshop we will bring together participants who have solutions
for one or more of the following problems: How can mutual understanding
be optimized with the help of technology in hospitals where both
patients and professionals have varying language skills, cultural
backgrounds and cognitive capacities? Can domain ontologies, natural
language processing tools, multilingual knowledge-based tools,
multilingual terminology resources and other semantic technologies be
combined in order to enhance the quality of mutual understanding between
humans?

Multi-language web apps already exist that make it easier for different
health professionals to improve communication through the use of
terminology and phrases like standard questions and explanations in
multiple languages. We solicit ideas on how technology can optimize the
usability of this type of resource and of other types of resources and
on how new technologies can reuse all types of existing terminological
resources.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers from several
domains, and practitioners from industry, academia and health policy
making bodies to report on recent developments, achievements, technology
trends and research results on projects concerning the optimization of
understanding in multilingual hospital encounters and the possibilities
of applying web-based technologies to this end.


What follows is a non-exhaustive list of topics of interest for this
workshop.

- One of the topics is how cloud-based technology can optimize
  understanding in caretaker - caregiver communication in a variety of
  hospital settings where misunderstanding might be lurking because of
  incompatible language skills, cultural differences, terminology,
  etc. We welcome contributions in the field of current semantic
  web-based technologies, techniques and tools with the aim of reusing
  distributed data on the web and exploring web- based health
  applications.

- We also solicit examples of service-oriented collective intelligence
  and language resource interoperability. How can existing hospital
  infrastructures of several kinds be designed for caregivers and for
  caretakers as end users?

- A clinical pathway is a decision-tree based on clinical assessment
  that guides the triage, history taking and further examination of a
  patient with a particular clinical problem. We solicit examples of
  clinical pathways for identifying and treating specific disorders at
  triage and history taking in hospital emergency wards where caretakers
  and patients do not speak the same language, in which the linguistic
  and cultural background of a patient are taken into consideration.

- General-purpose machine translation tools are not reliable for the
  translation of medical records. We solicit examples of the use of
  machine translation tools (trained to target specific domains in
  medicine?) to enhance understanding between caregivers and caretakers
  in well-defined contexts.

We invite you to send a short paper (4 pages, presentation time 15
minutes)

  http://www.cognition.ens.fr/ColloquiumIEC.html

Each human language contains an unbounded number of different sentences.
How can something so large and complex possibly be learnt?  Over the
past two decades we've learned how to define probability distributions
over grammars and the linguistic structures they generate, making it
possible to define statistical models that learn regularities of complex
linguistic structures. Bayesian approaches are particularly attractive
because they can exploit "prior" (e.g., innate) knowledge as well as
learn statistical generalizations from the input.  Here we use
computational models to investigate "synergies" in language acquisition,
where a "joint model" is capable of solving "chicken-and-egg" problems
that are challenging for conventional "staged learning" models.

**noon, 12th September, LingLunch*

  Linglunch Paris Diderot
  Thursday, 12th septembre 2013
  12h-13h, salle 103 
  bâtiment Olympe de Gouges
  (8) rue Albert Einstein, 75013
  http://www.linguist.univ-paris-diderot.fr/linglunch.html

This talk argues that language acquisition -- in particular, syntactic
parameter setting -- is profitably viewed as a statistical inference
problem.  I discuss some issues associated with statistical inference
that linguists might be concerned about, including the possibility of
"Zombie" parameter settings.  The bulk of the talk focuses on estimating
parameters in a Stabler-style Minimalist Grammar framework.  Building on
recent results of Hunter and Dyer (2013), we show how estimating weights
associated with lexical entries -- including the empty functional
categories that control parametric syntactic variation -- can be reduced
to estimating weights in what appears to be a new grammar formalism
called "feature-weighted context-free grammars", which is a MaxEnt
generalisation of the "tied context-free grammars" of Headden et al
(2009).  Importantly, the partition function and its derivatives of a
feature-weighted context-free grammar can be calculated using a
generalisation inspired by the Inside-Outside algorithm of the
algorithms for calculating partition functions in Nederhof and Satta
(2009).  We show how this can be used to learn lexical entries and verb
movement and XP movement parameters in three toy corpora.

*Grammars and Topic Models**

**11am, 20th September, Alpage Group*

  Séminaire ALPAGE
  Friday, 20th september, 11h-12h30
  salle 127
  bâtiment Olympe de Gouges
  (8) rue Albert Einstein, 75013
  https://www.rocq.inria.fr/alpage-wiki/tiki-index.php?page=seminaire

Context-free grammars have been a cornerstone of theoretical computer
science and computational linguistics since their inception over half a
century ago.  Topic models are a newer development in machine learning
that play an important role in document analysis and information
retrieval.  It turns out there is a surprising connection between the
two that suggests novel ways of extending both grammars and topic
models.  After explaining this connection, I go on to describe
extensions which identify topical multiword collocations and
automatically learn the internal structure of named-entity phrases.
These new models have applications in text data mining and information
retrieval.

C'est avec une grande tristesse que nous avons appris le décès
accidentel de Jean Véronis le dimanche 8 septembre 2013.

Quand il a été élu président de l'ATALA en 2000, Jean Véronis avait déjà
acquis une solide réputation internationale, grâce à ses travaux sur les
ressources lexicales multilingues, dans le cadre du projet MULTEX et son
implication dans la campagne d’évaluation ROMANSEVAL.  Très vite, Jean a
su prendre des initiatives importantes pour l'ATALA, comme, par exemple,
celle de transformer la revue Traitement Automatique des Langues, alors
publiée par Hermès, en une revue électronique diffusée de façon libre et
gratuite.  Cette initiative montre l'importance toute particulière qu'il
accordait à la libre diffusion du savoir via Internet. C'est dans ce
même état d'esprit qu'il a créé le blog AixTAL, qui l'a rendu célèbre en
dehors du monde académique. Ce blog a permis de vulgariser les recherche
menées en Traitement Automatique des Langues, par exemple en étudiant
les mots employés par les hommes politiques.  L'ATALA peut
s'enorgueillir d'avoir eu un président qui a eu à cœur de faire
comprendre au grand public quel était l'objet des recherches menées par
ses membres. Jean Véronis était un homme de convictions et
d’engagements. Avec sa disparition, le monde du TAL perd un de ses
grands porte-parole.

InMemoriamAixTAL (http://inmemoriamaixtal.blog4ever.com/) est un blog
qui a été créé par les membres de l'ATALA (Association pour le
Traitement Automatique des Langues) pour honorer

Nous souhaitons par l'intermédiaire de ce blog, collecter les
témoignages de ceux qui l'on connu, rencontré ou qui ont collaboré avec
lui, que ce soit en personne ou par le biais d'Internet, afin d'honorer
sa mémoire.  Une fois rassemblés, ces témoignages seront transmis à sa
famille.

This is the Call for Participation in the second scanned documents
processing evaluation campaign MAURDOR 2013. You can find the detailed
information below (French and English versions).

### French version ###

*** Campagne d’évaluation MAURDOR : nouvelle édition ***

Le traitement automatique de documents numérisés est en plein essor. Les
campagnes MAURDOR visent à évaluer des systèmes de traitement
automatique de documents écrits. Elles cherchent à quantifier et
qualifier les capacités des systèmes à extraire des informations
pertinentes à partir d’images issues de la numérisation de documents
écrits.

Après le succès de la première campagne MAURDOR qui s’est déroulée au
printemps 2013, le Laboratoire National de métrologie et d’Essais (LNE)
et CASSIDIAN coordonnent une seconde édition. Ils proposent un cadre
commun de tâches afin de rendre compte des performances actuelles des
systèmes de traitement automatique de documents numériques.

Pour remplir cet objectif, le LNE fournira aux participants les éléments
suivants :

- Des données cohérentes de développements et de test, correspondant aux
  domaines applicatifs concernés.

- Des outils de métriques automatiques de la performance des systèmes.

- Un protocole d’évaluation commun applicable à chacune des étapes de
  traitement ainsi qu’à une chaine complète de traitement automatique de
  documents écrits.

Le plan d’évaluation de la campagne est accessible sur
www.maurdor-campaign.org

Un atelier sera organisé à la fin de chaque campagne pour rendre compte
des résultats obtenus et confronter les approches des différents
participants.

** Un corpus de documents hétérogènes **

Une des particularités de l’évaluation MAURDOR est de s’appuyer sur un
corpus de documents très hétérogènes.

Le corpus d’apprentissage MAURDOR 2 comportera au total 7 000 documents
en anglais, français et arabe correspondant aux catégories suivantes

- Des formulaires (environ 12% du corpus) vierges ou complétés

- Des documents commerciaux (environ 40% du corpus) imprimés mais
  également commentés .manuellement

- Des correspondances privées manuscrites (environ 25% du corpus)
  pouvant parfois contenir des entêtes imprimées

- Des correspondances commerciales (environ 20% du corpus) imprimées
  mais également commentées manuellement

- D’autres documents comme des articles de journaux ou des
  plans…(environ 3% du corpus)

Les systèmes seront évalués sur un corpus de 1 000 documents dont la
répartition par catégorie respectera les mêmes proportions que celles du
corpus d’apprentissage.

** Tâches évaluées **

MAURDOR repose sur la définition d’une chaîne de traitement complète
dans laquelle cinq modules distincts sont mis en œuvre. Chaque module
remplit une fonction particulière et contribue au traitement complet du
document. Ce sont ces cinq modules qui seront évalués au cours de la
campagne. Les modules sont les suivants :

- Module n°1 : Typage des zones d’un document permettant de segmenter
  les images de documents en zones distinctes

- Module n°2 : Typage de la nature de l’écriture (manuscrite,
  dactylographiée)

- Module n°3 : Identification de la langue (anglais, arabe, français ou
  autre)

- Module n°4 : Reconnaissance de l’écriture dactylographiée et
  manuscrite (OCR).

- Module n°5: Extraction de la structure du document.

Une évaluation applicative sera également effectuée. Elle consistera à
évaluer la complétude et la précision de la reconnaissance par rapport à
la présence de mots clés dans les documents.

** Comment participer ? **

Cette campagne est ouverte à toutes les personnes, entreprises ou
institutions qui souhaiteraient évaluer leur approche en matière de
traitement automatique de documents numériques.

Tous les participants devront présenter leur(s) système(s) lors de
l’atelier et être en capacité d’expliquer ses fondements. L’atelier est
réservé aux participants à la campagne et aux agences ayant financé le
projet.

Les modules étant indépendant, les participants peuvent s’inscrire pour
évaluer une chaîne complète (évaluation applicative) ou des modules de
leur choix. L’inscription se fait sur le site www.maurdor-campaign.org

### English version ###

*** MAURDOR-campaigns: Scanned documents processing evaluations ***

** Presentation **

Scanned documents processing is an important issue for information
retrieval. The MAURDOR campaigns aim at assessing the progress of
automatic systems in this area. The goal is to evaluate the ability of
the systems to extract relevant information in scanned documents.

After the success of the first campaign that took place in spring 2013,
the Laboratoire national de métrologie et d’essais (LNE) and CASSIDIAN,
an EADS company, will conduct a new MAURDOR evaluation campaign in order
to support research in Scanned documents processing and help advancing
the state of the art in Optical Characters Recognition technologies.

The LNE and CASSIDIAN provide the following to participants:

- Consistent data for training, development and test sets.

- Automatic scoring tools.

- Common rules needed to assess different steps essential for scanned
  documents processing.

A workshop will be organized at the end of the campaign to account for
the results and compare the approaches of various participants. The
evaluation plan is available at www.maurdor-campaign.org

** A heterogeneous database **

The MAURDOR evaluations are based on a very heterogeneous database. The
training set is multilingual (English, French, And Arabic) and consists
of 7,000 different documents corresponding to the following classes:

- Blank forms and completed forms (around 12% of the database)

- Typewritten commercial documents with sometimes several manual
  annotations (around 40% of the database)

- Handwritten personal letters with sometimes typewritten headers
  (around 25% of the database)

- Commercial letters such as purchase orders or bills (around 20% of the
  database)

- Other documents like newspapers articles or maps…(around 3% of the
  database).

The test set contains 1,000 documents. The proportion of documents
belonging to different categories is the same as for the training data

** Tasks **

MAURDOR is based on a complete processing chain in which five separate
modules are implemented. Each module performs a particular function
contributing to the complete processing of a scanned document. The
following five modules are independently assessed during the campaign:

- Task 1: Segmentation and typing areas (table, text, image…)

- Task 2: Type writing characterization (handwritten or typewritten
  characters)

- Task 3: Language identification

- Task 4: Optical Characters Recognition

- Task 5: Establishing reading order and relations between areas

Participants can submit systems for individual tasks of their choice.

An evaluation will also be performed for an operational application as
an end-to-end processing chain. It is evaluated in a keyword spotting
scenario.

** How to participate? ** 

This evaluation is intended to be of interest of all researchers working
on the problem of scanned documents processing. The only requirement is
the participation in the closing workshop. All the participants must
attend the evaluation workshop and be prepared to discuss their
system(s), their results in detail. To participate it is sufficient to
fill out the registration form available at www.maurdor-campaign.org

* **Mark Johnson** (Macquarie University**)
***
*Grammars and Topic Models**
**
*Context-free grammars have been a cornerstone of theoretical computer
science and computational linguistics since their inception over half a
century ago.  Topic models are a newer development in machine learning
that play an important role in document analysis and information
retrieval.  It turns out there is a surprising connection between the
two that suggests novel ways of extending both grammars and topic
models.  After explaining this connection, I go on to describe
extensions which identify topical multiword collocations and
automatically learn the internal structure of named-entity
phrases. These new models have applications in text data mining and
information retrieval.

TROISIÈME ET DERNIER APPEL À  PROPOSITIONS

COLLOQUE INTERNATIONAL

À L’ARTICULATION DU LEXIQUE, DE LA GRAMMAIRE ET DU DISCOURS :
MARQUEURS GRAMMATICAUX ET MARQUEURS DISCURSIFS

DATE LIMITE DE SOUMISSION : 30 SEPTEMBRE 2013
DATES

Vendredi 4 avril et samedi 5 avril 2014

LIEU

Université Paris 3 – Sorbonne nouvelle

RESPONSABLES

- Gaétane Dostie (Professeure de linguistique à l’Université de
  Sherbrooke, Québec ; Catifq)

- Florence Lefeuvre (Professeure de linguistique à l’Université Paris 3
  - Sorbonne Nouvelle ; Syled-Clesthia (EA2290))


CADRE DE LA RENCONTRE

Ce colloque vise à examiner des faits lexicaux qui se situent à la
frontière de la grammaire et du discours. Deux types d’emplois bien
distincts de marqueurs retiendront particulièrement l’attention :

i) Des emplois où les morphèmes considérés agissent à titre de marqueurs
   grammaticaux, ce qui inclut notamment (Léard en préparation) :

- Des usages où ils donnent des informations relatives à la quantité et
  aux repères spatio-temporels (c’est-à-dire des usages où ils
  effectuent des opérations de quantification et de repérage sur les
  classes majeures de mots, comme les déterminants, les auxiliaires,
  etc.) ;

- Des usages où ils lient des mots, des syntagmes ou des propositions à
  l'intérieur des énoncés (prépositions, coordonnants et subordonnants).

ii) Des emplois où les morphèmes ciblés ont le statut de marqueurs
    discursifs. Contrairement aux emplois qui précèdent, ils ne
    participent alors pas au contenu propositionnel des énoncés auxquels
    ils sont joints (ex. : là et t’sais) ou ils constituent par
    eux-mêmes des énoncés (ex. : quand même dans certaines de ses
    utilisations ; entre autres, Vincent 1993 ; Fernandez-Vest 1994 ;
    Hansen, 1998 ; Brémond 2002 ; Teston-Bonnard 2006 ; Lefeuvre 2006 ;
    Dostie et Pusch 2007).


L’objectif du colloque sera d’apporter quelques éléments de réponses aux
questions suivantes, à partir d’un examen minutieux de marqueurs qui, en
français actuel, c’est-à-dire en français en usage dans les années 2000,
expriment à la fois des sens grammaticaux et des sens discursifs, tels
parce que (cf. Debaisieux 1994), comme si, pis, mais, genre et quoi
(Lefeuvre, Morel et Teston-Bonnard 2011) :

1) Quels sont les types de marqueurs grammaticaux également appelés à
   exprimer des sens discursifs et pourquoi (quelles sont leurs valeurs
   générales, à quelles classes grammaticales appartiennent-ils, etc.) ?

2) Comment aborder, en synchronie, la polysémie des marqueurs qui
   expriment tantôt des sens grammaticaux, tantôt des sens discursifs ?
   En particulier, l’approche selon laquelle il existerait
   systématiquement un invariant sémantique en langue est-elle
   défendable pour ce type d’unités lexicales ?


3) Quelle part réserver à la synonymie dans le domaine ciblé ? Ainsi, la
   synonymie exacte (en langue) entre deux marqueurs est-elle possible à
   grande échelle (c’est-à-dire autrement que de manière ponctuelle)
   dans un style communicatif donné (par exemple, dans la langue parlée
   familière ou encore dans la langue parlée usitée en contexte formel)
   ?


4) Comment aborder la problématique de l’association, entre eux, des
   marqueurs à valeur grammaticale, d’une part, et des marqueurs à
   valeur discursive, d’autre part ? La notion de ‘collocation’ (ou de
   ‘semi-figement’) a-t-elle sa place ici et si oui, comment la
   modéliser ?

5) Comment représenter, de manière optimale, les sens et les diverses
   propriétés formelles des marqueurs grammaticaux et discursifs dans
   les ouvrages de référence (c’est-à-dire dans les dictionnaires et les
   grammaires) ? Y aurait-il lieu de développer des systèmes de
   représentations complémentaires à ceux qui servent de point d’ancrage
   aux ouvrages de référence traditionnels ? Si oui, quelles formes ces
   systèmes devraient-ils prendre ?

Les différentes questions formulées ci-dessus seront abordées par le
biais de données authentiques susceptibles d’alimenter, en filigrane, la
réflexion relative à la dia-variation lexicale en français actuel
(diatopique, diastratique et diaphasique) dans les domaines ciblés par
le colloque.

Dear Colleagues,

on behalf of the organizing Committee, I am pleased to announce the
third LTC Workshop on "Less Resourced Languages, new technologies, new
challenges and opportunities", to be held in conjunction with Language
Technology Conference in Poznan, Poland, on 8 December 2013.

General Conference website:http://www.ltc.amu.edu.pl/

Workshop Theme:

Many less resourced languages (LRL) that are thriving to get a place in
the digital space and that could profit of the new opportunities offered
by the Internet and digital devices will seriously face digital
extinction if they are not supported by Language Technologies. Language
Technologies (LTs, i.e. spelling and grammar checkers, electronic
dictionaries, localized interfaces, voice dictations, audio
transcriptions and subtitling, as well as multimedia/multimodal search
engines, language translators or information extraction tools) are
essential instruments to secure usability of less resourced languages
within the digital world, thus ensuring those languages equal
opportunities and raising their profile in the eyes of natives but also
non-natives from the younger, digitally-oriented generation. However,
there are many challenges to be faced to equip less resourced languages
with LTs (from basic to advanced): a substantial delay in development of
basic technologies, a lack of cooperation among languages communities, a
chronic shortage of funding (in particular for minority languages not
officially recognized, yet often the most vital ones over the Internet)
and the limited economic value placed over LTs for minority languages by
the market rules. At this critical time, this workshop seeks to continue
the debate as to what new technologies have to offer less resourced
languages, and how the research community might seek to overcome the
challenges and exploit the opportunities.

Paper submission deadline: 22 September 2013

We invite papers addressing the topics listed, but not limited to, the
ones below:

- Experiences in the development of digital applications for LRLs
- LRLs in educational and entertainment applications
- LRTs for securing access and inclusion to speakers of LRLs
- Development of LRs through crowdsourcing
- Youth-oriented applications for revitalisation of LRLs
- Experiences/models of cooperation for development of LRTs for LRLs
- Business models
- Gaps in availability of LRTs for LRLs
- Development of LTs when LRs are missing
- LR&Ts as a booster for the adoption of LRL within the digital world
- Lessons learnt from major recent infrastructure initiatives
- Infrastructures for making available LR and LT in all languages, and
  especially in the less-resourced ones
- Assessing Availability, Quality, Maturity and Sustainability of LT and
  LR , comparing the LRLs and the major ones
- Requirements for the production, validation and distribution of LR for
  less-resourced languages


Program (general framework): The workshop will comprise presentations
(including keynote talks) and a panel session, including an EC
representative . The details of the program is in preparation and will
be published soon on the conference site.

Co-Chairs: Claudia Soria (CNR-ILC, Italy), Khalid Choukri (ELRA, ELDA,

***ELRA and the LREC Programme Committee are very pleased to announce
that the LREC 2012 Proceedings have been accepted for inclusion in the
Conference Proceedings Citation Index of Thomson Reuters. The CPCI is
searchable through the Web of Science
(http://thomsonreuters.com/products_services/science/science_products/scholarly_research_analysis/research_discovery/web_of_science)
platform and will provide authors with with unprecedented recognition.

LREC 2010 proceedings are currently under review, and chances that they
will be accepted are high! Once published, the proceedings of LREC 2014
will be submitted for inclusion in the CPCI.*

ELRA is glad to announce the 9th edition of LREC, organised with the
support of a wide range of international organisations.

*CONFERENCE AIMS*
LREC is the major event on Language Resources (LRs) and Evaluation for
Human Language Technologies (HLT). LREC aims to provide an overview of
the state-of-the-art, explore new R&D directions and emerging trends,
exchange information regarding LRs and their applications, evaluation
methodologies and tools, on-going and planned activities, industrial
uses and needs, requirements coming from e-science and e-society, with
respect both to policy issues and to scientific/technological and
organisational ones.

LREC provides a unique forum for researchers, industrials and funding
agencies from across a wide spectrum of areas to discuss problems and
opportunities, find new synergies and promote initiatives for
international cooperation, in support of investigations in language
sciences, progress in language technologies (LT) and development of
corresponding products, services and applications, and standards.

CONFERENCE TOPICS

Issues in the design, construction and use of LRs: text, speech,
multimodality
* Guidelines, standards, best practices and models for LRs
  interoperability
* Methodologies and tools for LRs construction and annotation
* Methodologies and tools for extraction and acquisition of knowledge
* Ontologies, terminology and knowledge representation
* LRs and Semantic Web
* LRs and Crowdsourcing
* Metadata for LRs and semantic/content mark-up

Exploitation of LRs in systems and applications
* Sign language, multimedia information and multimodal communication
* LRs in systems and applications such as: information extraction,
  information retrieval, audio-visual and multimedia search, speech
  dictation, meeting transcription, Computer Aided Language Learning,
  training and education, mobile communication, machine translation,
  speech translation, summarisation, web services, semantic search, text
  mining, inferencing, reasoning, etc.
* Interfaces: (speech-based) dialogue systems, natural language and
  multimodal/multisensorial interactions, voice-activated services, etc.
* Use of (multilingual) LRs in various fields of application like
  e-government, e-culture, e-health, e-participation, mobile
  applications, digital humanities, etc.
* Industrial LRs requirements, user needs 

Issues in LT evaluation
* LT evaluation methodologies, protocols and measures
* Validation and quality assurance of LRs
* Benchmarking of systems and products
* Usability evaluation of HLT-based user interfaces and dialogue systems
* User satisfaction evaluation

General issues regarding LRs & Evaluation
* International and national activities, projects and collaboration
* Priorities, perspectives, strategies in national and international
  policies for LRs
* Multilingual issues, language coverage and diversity, less-resourced
  languages
* Open, linked and shared data and tools, open and collaborative 
  architectures
* Organisational, economical, ethical and legal issues.

LREC 2014 HOT TOPICS

Big Data, Linked Open Data, LRs and HLT

The ever-increasing quantities of large and complex digital datasets,
structured or unstructured, multilingual, multimodal or multimedia, pose
new challenges but at the same time open up new opportunities for HLT
and related fields. Ubiquitous data and information capturing devices,
social media and networks, the web at large with its big data /
knowledge bases and other information capturing / aggregating /
publishing platforms are providing useful information and/or knowledge
for a wide range of LT applications.
LREC 2014 puts a strong emphasis on the synergies of the big Linked Open
Data and LRs/LT communities and their complementarity in cracking LT
problems and developing useful applications and services.

LRs in the Collaborative Age

The amount of collaboratively generated and used language data is
constantly increasing and it is therefore time to open a wide discussion
on such LRs at LREC. There is a need to discuss the types of LRs that
can be collaboratively generated and used.
Are lexicons, dictionaries, corpora, ontologies (of language data),
grammars, tagsets, data categories, all possible fields in which a
collaborative approach can be applied? Can collaboratively generated LRs
be standardised/harmonised? And how can quality control be applied to
collaboratively generated LRs? How can a collaborative approach ensure
that less-resourced languages receive the same digital dignity as
mainstream languages?
There is also a need to discuss legal aspects related to collaboratively
generated LRs. And last but not least: are there different types of
collaborative approaches, or is the Wikimedia style the best approach to
collaborative generation and use of LRs?

*LREC 2014 SPECIAL HIGHLIGHT*
*Share your LRs!*

In addition to describing your LRs in the LRE Map -- now a normal step
in the submission procedure of many conferences -- LREC 2014 recognises
that the time is ripe to launch another important initiative, the LREC
Repository of shared LRs!
When submitting a paper, you will be offered the possibility to share 
your LRs (data, tools, web-services, etc.), uploading them in a special 
LREC META-SHARE repository set up by ELRA.
Your LRs will be made available to all LREC participants before the 
conference, to be re-used, compared, analysed, ...
This effort of sharing LRs, linked to the LRE Map for their description,
may become a new "regular" feature for conferences in our field, thus
contributing to creating a common repository where everyone can deposit
and share data.

*PROGRAMME*
The Scientific Programme will include invited talks, oral presentations,
poster and demo presentations, and panels, in addition to a keynote
address by the winner of the Antonio Zampolli Prize.

*SUBMISSIONS AND DATES*
Submission of proposals for oral and poster (or poster+demo) papers: 15 
October 2013
Abstracts should consist of about 1500-2000 words, will be submitted
through START @*https://www.softconf.com/lrec2014/main/*and will be
peer-reviewed.

Submission of proposals for panels, workshops and tutorials: 15 October 2013
Proposals should be submitted via an online form on the LREC website
(*click Submission from the Home page*) and will be reviewed by the
Programme Committee.

*PROCEEDINGS*
The Proceedings will include both oral and poster papers, in the same 
format.

There is no difference in quality between oral and poster
presentations. 
Only the appropriateness of the type of communication (more or less 
interactive) to the content of the paper will be considered.

In addition a Book of Abstracts will be printed.

PRÉSENTATION
============
Organisée par le LPL (Laboratoire Parole et Langage) et le LIF
(Laboratoire d’Informatique Fondamentale), la conférence TALN
(Traitement Automatique des Langues Naturelles) aura lieu pour son 20ème
anniversaire à Marseille (Faculté Saint-Charles, Université
d'Aix-Marseille) du 1er au 4 juillet 2014

La conférence TALN’2014, qui est organisée sous l’égide de l’ATALA, se
tiendra conjointement avec la 16e édition des Rencontres des Étudiants
Chercheurs en Informatique pour le Traitement Automatique des Langues
(RECITAL’2014).

La conférence TALN’2014 comprendra des communications orales présentant
des travaux de recherche et des prises de position, des communications
affichées, des conférences invitées et des démonstrations.

La langue officielle de la conférence est le français. Les
communications en anglais sont acceptées pour les participants non
francophones.

TYPES DE COMMUNICATIONS
=======================
Deux formats de communications sont prévus : les articles longs (de 12 à
14 pages) et les articles courts (de 6 à 8 pages).

Les auteurs sont invités à présenter deux types de communications :

  - des articles présentant des travaux de recherche originaux
  - des prises de position présentant un point de vue sur l’état des
    recherches en TALN, fondées sur une solide expérience du domaine

Les articles doivent présenter des travaux originaux, comportant un
apport substantiel par rapport à d'autres travaux éventuellement déjà
publiés. Les traductions d'articles publiés ailleurs dans une autre
langue ne sont pas acceptées.

Les articles longs seront présentés sous forme d’une communication
orale, les articles courts sous forme d’un poster.

Les communications pourront porter sur tous les thèmes du TAL.

CRITÈRES DE SÉLECTION
=====================
Les soumissions seront examinées par au moins deux spécialistes du
domaine. Pour les travaux de recherche, seront considérées en
particulier :

  - l’adéquation aux thèmes de la conférence
  - l’importance et l’originalité de la contribution
  - la correction du contenu scientifique et technique
  - la discussion critique des résultats, en particulier par rapport aux
    autres travaux du domaine
  - la situation des travaux dans le contexte de la recherche
    internationale
  - l’organisation et la clarté de la présentation

Pour les prises de position, seront privilégiées :

  - la largeur de vue et la prise en compte de l’état de l’art
  - l’originalité et l’impact du point de vue présenté

Les articles sélectionnés seront publiés dans les actes de la
conférence.

Le comité de programme sélectionnera parmi les communications acceptées
un article (prix TALN) pour recommandation à publication (dans une
version étendue) dans la revue Traitement Automatique des Langues (revue
TAL).

MODALITÉS DE SOUMISSION
=======================
Les articles seront rédigés en français pour les francophones, en
anglais pour ceux qui ne maîtrisent pas le français.

Le dialogue entre un homme et une machine n’est pas encore similaire au
dialogue naturel entre deux humains. Des techniques issues de plusieurs
disciplines sont appliquées avec une habileté croissante, pour une
fluidité et un réalisme en progrès. Analyse linguistique, résolution des
références, identification des actes de dialogue, des intentions de
l’utilisateur, décision de la réaction du système et du message à
produire en retour : autant d’étapes de traitement caractérisées chacune
par des théories propres et des ressources spécifiques.

Cet ouvrage synthétise les principaux problèmes posés par chaque étape
de conception d’un système de dialogue homme-machine tout en proposant
plusieurs pistes pour suivre la voie d’un dialogue en langage
naturel. Il se fonde sur les expériences de recherche et les
développements récents, avec des préoccupations recoupant celles des
domaines de l’intelligence artificielle, du traitement automatique des
langues, des interfaces homme-machine, comme les interfaces multimodales
ou multimédias.

L'auteur
Docteur en informatique et chargé de recherche au CNRS, Frédéric
Landragin travaille sur l’analyse et la modélisation de l’interprétation
du langage, pour son application au dialogue homme-machine.

Organisation

*Présentation scientifique*

*Intérêt scientifique*

      Comité scientifique

Le Comité scientifique est composé des comités des 13 thématiques du
Congrès et des responsables de la session pluri-thématique

Session Thématique :

*Ressources et outils pour l’analyse linguistique*

*Présidente* : Christiane Fellbaum (Université de Princeton), 
*Vice-président /coordonnateur*: Jean-Luc Minel (MoDyCo, Université
Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense et CNRS)

*Autres membres du comité :*  Delphine Battistelli (MoDyCo, Université
Paris-Ouest Nanterre La Défense), Olivier Baude (LLL, Université
d’Orléans et CNRS), Farah Benamara (IRIT, Université Paul Sabatier et
CNRS), Anne Condamines (CLLE-ERSS, CNRS et Université de Toulouse),
Cédrick Fairon (Université Catholique de Louvain), Marie-Josée Goulet
(Université du Québec en Outaouais,), Guy Lapalme (Université de
Montréal), Chantal Lyche (Université d’Oslo),  Dominique

Université de Nantes et CNRS)


*Présentation*

La mise à disposition de grands corpus électroniques oraux ou écrits
ainsi que celle de ressources annotées à des niveaux divers
(morphologique, syntaxique, sémantique et discursif) ouvrent la voie à
des travaux qui interrogent les approches classiques des Sciences du
Langage. Le développement d’outils de traitement informatique (tels que
les outils de collectes de données langagières, les outils d'aide à la
transcription, les outils d’annotation automatique ou manuelle, les
outils d'analyse fondés sur des traitements symboliques et/ou
statistiques, les systèmes d’apprentissage, etc.) transforme les
méthodes d’accès aux sources et affecte les démarches d'étude
linguistique. La question de la mutualisation et de la capitalisation
des ressources devient maintenant un enjeu majeur pour l’ensemble de la
communauté, soulevant des problématiques d’interopérabilité, de
normalisation et des questions d’ordre juridique, éthique et
déontologique. On observe une tendance des instances à accompagner ce
mouvement (divers projets de constitution de « grands » corpus et de
groupes de travail d'annotation, mise en place de laboratoires et
d’équipements d’excellence dédiés, etc.).

Avec une démarche différente des colloques internationaux spécialisés
dans le Traitement Automatique des Langues (TAL), cette session du CMLF
2014 voudrait ouvrir un espace d’échanges scientifiques entre
différentes approches linguistiques, sans exclusive de cadres
théoriques, de méthodologies ou de pratiques axées sur la théorie et/ou
l’empirisme. Cette session sera l’occasion de mettre en relief tout
aussi bien des recherches émergentes que des travaux qui consolident les
approches existantes.

La session « Ressources et outils pour l’analyse linguistique» invite à
soumettre des propositions d’articles originaux dont l’objet est de
construire, développer, exploiter des ressources ou des outils dans tous
les domaines de la linguistique française, aussi bien à l’oral qu’à
l’écrit : morphologie, syntaxe, sémantique, discursif, phonétique,
phonologie.

CALL FOR PAPERS 

2nd Workshop on Argumentation in Artificial Intelligence and Philosophy:
computational and philosophical perspectives (ARGAIP-2013)

Web site: http://sites.google.com/site/argaip13/ 

Argumentation is an important and exciting research topic that cuts
across a variety of disciplines: Philosophy, Psychology, Communications
Studies, Linguistics and Computer Science, in particular Artificial
Intelligence. More specifically, argumentation theory involves different
ways for analyzing arguments and their relationships. In everyday life
arguments are "reasons to believe and reasons to act". Until recent
years, the idea of "argumentation" as the process of creating arguments
for and against competing claims, was a subject of interest to
philosophers and lawyers. In recent years, however, there has been a
growth of interest in the subject from formal and technical perspectives
in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, and a wide use of
argumentation technologies in practical applications. Here,
argumentation is viewed as a mechanical procedure for interpreting
events, organizing and presenting documents, and making decisions about
actions. From a theoretical perspective, argumentation offers a novel
framework providing new light on classical forms of reasoning, such as
logical deduction, induction, abduction and plausible reasoning,
communication, explanations of advice, supporting discussion and
negotiation in computer-supported cooperative work. From a
human-computer interaction point of view, argumentation is a versatile
technique that facilitates natural system behavior and is more easily
understood by human users. 

In spite of the wide range of disciplines interested in Argumentation,
scientific communities tend to be organized along disciplinary
boundaries, with only moderate integration occurring between
computational models and philosophical and linguistic theories of
Argumentation. This workshop aims at rectifying this situation, bringing
together people from various disciplines (most notably, Artificial
Intelligence, Philosophy, Linguistics, and Psychology) and asking them
to compare their methods and results in the study of Argumentation.

ABSTRACT
-------------------
This book addresses some of the key questions that scientists have been
asking themselves for centuries: what is knowledge? What is information?
How do we know that we know something? How do we construct meaning from
the perceptions of things? And how do we communicate this meaning to
others—that is to say, inform them? Although no consensus exists on a
common definition of the concepts of information and communication, few
can reject the hypothesis that information – whether perceived as an «
object » or as a « process » - is a precondition for knowledge.
Epistemology can be defined as the study of how we know things in
general—this is its primary signification in the anglophone world—or,
more specifically, as the study of how scientific knowledge is attained
and validated—this is how it is conceived in the francophone world. To
adopt an epistemological stance is to commit oneself to render an
account of what constitutes knowledge or, in procedural terms, to render
an account of when one can claim to know something. An epistemological
theory imposes constraints on the interpretation of human cognitive
interaction with the world. It goes without saying that different
epistemological theories will have more or less restrictive criteria for
distinguishing what constitutes knowledge from what is not. If
information is a precondition for knowledge acquisition, giving an
account of how knowledge is acquired should affect our understanding of
information and communication as concepts. While much has been written
on the definition of these concepts, relatively few researchers have
sought to establish explicit links between differing theoretical
conceptions of them and the underlying epistemological stances. This is
what this volume attempts to do. It is a multidisciplinary exploration
of how information and communication are perceived in different
disciplines and how this affects theories of knowledge.

Résumé
-------
Cet ouvrage de synthèse sur les fondements théoriques et
épistémo-logiques de la science de l’information répond à trois
questions :

- existe-t-il une science de l’information à part entière ?
- comment se définit l’information, objet de cette science ?
- y a-t-il une spécificité française de la science de l’information ?

Ce livre compare les chemins parcourus par la science de l’information
en France et dans le reste du monde. Il contextualise cette évolution à
l’aune d’une diversité d’inscriptions disciplinaires. L’enjeu de la
science de l’information est de concilier l’approche réaliste de la
connaissance, l’approche individualiste des sciences cognitives et
l’approche collectiviste où les domaines sont façonnés et les compor-
tements sont modulés par les environne- ments, les cultures et les
construits sociaux partagés.

Cette étude sera utile à tous les chercheurs, étudiants et
professionnels désirant appro- fondir leurs connaissances sur les
fondements théoriques de la science de l’information.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
-----1st Workshop on Histoinformatics (Histoinformatics 2013)----
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Held in conjunction with 5th International Conference on Social 
Informatics (SocInfo 2013), 25 November 2013, Kyoto, Japan

           ---http://www.histoinformatics.org---

--------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------Paper submission deadline October 6, 2013-------------
--------------The length of short papers extended to 10 pages!------
--------------------------------------------------------------------

The 1st International Workshop on Histoinformatics aims at fostering the
interaction between Computer Science and Historical Science towards
"Computational History". This interdisciplinary initiative is a response
to the growing popularity of Digital Humanities and an increased
tendency to apply computer techniques for supporting and facilitating
research in Humanities. Nowadays, due to the increasing activities in
digitizing and opening historical sources, the Science of History can
greatly benefit from the advances of Computer and Information sciences
which consist of processing, organizing and making sense of data and
information. As such, new Computer Science techniques can be applied to
verify and validate historical assumptions based on text reasoning,
image interpretation or memory understanding. Our objective is to
provide for the two different research communities a place to meet and
exchange ideas and to facilitate discussion. We hope the workshop will
result in a survey of current problems and potential solutions, with
particular focus on exploring opportunities for collaboration and
interaction of researchers working on various subareas within Computer
Science and History Sciences. The main topics of the workshop are that
of supporting historical research and analysis through the application
of Computer Science theories or technologies, analyzing and making use
of historical texts, recreating past course of actions, analyzing
collective memories, visualizing historical data, providing efficient
access to large wealth of accumulated historical knowledge and so on.
The detailed topics of expected paper submissions are (but not limited
to):



- Processing and text mining of historical documents
- Analysis of longitudinal document collections
- Search models in document archives and historical collections,
  associative search
- Causal relationship discovery based on historical resources
- Entity relationship extraction, detecting and resolving historical
  references in text
- Computational linguistics for old texts
- Digitizing and archiving
- Modeling evolution of entities and relationships over time
- Automatic multimedia document dating
- Applications of artificial intelligence techniques to history
- Simulating and recreating the past course of actions, social 
  relations, motivations, figurations
- Analysis of language change over time
- Handling uncertain and fragmentary text and image data
- Finding analogical entities
- Entity linking in historical collections
- Named entity detection in historical texts
- Automatic biography generation
- Mining Wikipedia for historical data
- OCR and transcription of old texts
- Effective interfaces for searching, browsing or visualizing historical
  data collections
- Collective memory analysis
- Studying and modeling forgetting and remembering processes
- Vulgarization of History through new media
- Probing the limits of Histoinformatics
- Epistemologies in the Humanities and Computer Science

Full paper submissions are limited to 14 pages, while short paper
submissions should be less than 10 pages (extended). Submissions should
be sent in English in PDF via the submission website (see the website
for link). They should be formatted according to Springer LNCS paper
formatting guidelines. They must be original and have not been submitted
for publication elsewhere. Submissions will be evaluated by at least
three different reviewers from both computer and history science areas.
The accepted papers will be published by Springer as post proceedings
volume (to appear after the workshop).

Call for Events
Federated Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems
Warsaw, Poland, September 7-10, 2014
www.fedcsis.org

The 2014 Federated Conference on Computer Science and Information
Systems cordially invites you to consider contributing an Event
(conference, symposium, workshop, consortium meeting, special
session). The FedCSIS multi-conference consists of a significant number
of recurring Events, but proposals for new associated Events are welcome
until October 18, 2013. The Events can run over any span of time within
the conference dates; from half-day to three days.

Warszawa (Warsaw), the capital of Poland, is proud to be the host city
of FedCSIS 2014.

The FedCSIS Events provide a platform for bringing together researchers,
practitioners, and academia to present and discuss ideas, challenges,
and potential solutions on established or emerging topics related to
research and practice in computer science and information systems.

The Events will be selected based on the scientific/technical interest
and/or their relevance to practitioners in their topics, the clarity of
the proposal in addressing the requested information, the innovativeness
of the Event topics, and the capacity in the FedCSIS multi-conference
program.

The 2013, FedCSIS - held in Kraków, Poland - attracted 420 papers, of
which 172 articles were accepted as full papers (acceptance rate of
approximately 41%). Some events accepted additionally short and position
papers. FedcSIS conference full and short papers will be published in
the IEEE Xplore Digital Library, while position papers in a separate
volumeof the Annals of Computer Science and Information systems series
(publication process will be completed by October 31, 2013).

Publications

As in previous years, FedCSIS pre-Proceedings will be published on a USB
memory stick given to FedCSIS participants. Next, (only) papers
presented during the conference will be published in the IEEE Xplore
Digital Library proceedings (or as position papers, published in a
separate volume), and posted at the conference WWW site. The IEEE
proceedings will be published under an ISBN and ISSN numbers (and, when
applicable, an IEEE Catalog number), under a nonexclusive
copyright. Such copyright implies that Events' organizers can and,
indeed, are strongly encouraged to invite extended and revised papers
for post-conference publications in high-quality journals, edited
volumes, etc.


Event Proposals

Event proposals should include the following information (2 pages
maximum):

1. The nature of the Event. 

2. The title of the Event, and a clear description of the topic,
   including a brief justification.

3. The complete contact information of the Event organizers, including a
   link to their personal websites, and an overview of previous
   experiences with organization of scientific events.

4. Preliminary list of PC members who have agreed to join. 

5. Indication of the expected number of papers/attendees to attend the
   Event.

Résumé :

La construction d'ontologies de domaine à partir de textes repose sur
des techniques de traitement automatique de la langue (TAL) couplées à
des techniques d'ingénierie de connaissances pour aboutir à un modèle
formel décrivant les connaissances partagées dans un domaine
précis. L'un des enjeux du passage des textes à des ontologies est
l'identification du vocabulaire du domaine et sa structuration sous la
forme d'un thesaurus avant sa formalisation. Ce sont les difficultés
inhérentes à cette exploitation du matériau linguistique et à sa
normalisation qui ont retenu notre attention dans ce travail de thèse.

Nous proposons une méthode de normalisation qui permet de transformer le
matériau linguistique -- tel qu'il a été extrait d'un corpus
d'acquisition par des outils de TAL -- en un réseau sémantique que nous
appelons "réseau termino-conceptuel" et qui décrit le vocabulaire
normalisé du domaine, c'est-à-dire le vocabulaire filtré, désambiguïsé
et structuré. Ce vocabulaire normalisé peut être utilisé tel que (c'est
une forme de thesaurus) ou comme point de départ pour la formalisation
en ontologie.

Cette thèse a été conduite dans le cadre du projet européen ONTORULE
(ONTOlogy meets business RULEs). Notre approche s'inscrit dans le cadre
global d'une méthode de construction de ressources ontologiques à partir
de textes, TERMINAE, qui s'appuie sur une approche terminologique et qui
propose de médiatiser le passage du terme au concept par un niveau
termino-conceptuel.

Cette thèse a permis d'affiner cette méthode en montrant comment
structurer les différents niveaux de connaissances (les niveaux
terminologique, termino-conceptuel et conceptuel), décomposer le travail
de normalisation en différentes opérations, enchaîner ces opérations et
contrôler le processus global de normalisation. Cette méthode de
normalisation permet de guider le travail de l'ingénieur de la
connaissance qui se retrouve, à l'issue de la phase d'analyse des corpus
d'acquisition, face à une masse importante d'unités linguistiques à
traiter, dont certaines sont ambiguës et qui ne sont pas toutes
pertinentes pour le domaine.

Pour élaborer cette méthode de normalisation, cette thèse a mis l'accent
sur :

- l'enrichissement du réseau terminologique par la prise en compte
  notamment des entités nommées là où les approches terminologiques
  exploitaient essentiellement les termes;

- la formalisation des structures de connaissances manipulées dans le
  processus de construction d'ontologies : nous avons défini précisément
  les formalismes à utiliser pour modéliser chaque niveau de
  connaissances et mis en évidence les liens de correspondance qui
  permettent de dériver un modèle à partir d'un autre mais aussi
  d'articuler les connaissances ontologiques et terminologiques;

- la définition précise des opérations de normalisation qui manipulent
  les structures de connaissances ci-dessus et amènent à construire un
  réseau termino-conceptuel à partir d'un réseau terminologique;
  l'ensemble de ces opérations forme une méthode de normalisation qui
  permet de guider l'ingénieur de la connaissance dans la détection du
  vocabulaire du domaine et dans ses choix de normalisation; des
  indicateurs permettent de suivre la progression du travail de
  normalisation.


Mots clés :

Normalisation terminologique, Construction d'ontologies à partir de
textes, Potentiel terminologique, Entités nommées.

Bien cordialement.

La soutenance de thèse d'Alejandro MOLINA intitulée "Compression
automatique de phrases : un étude vers la génération de résumés" aura
lieu le lundi 30 Septembre 2013 à 14h30 dans la salle des thèses de
l'Université d'Avignon etd es Pays de Vaucluse à St. Marthe.


========Résumé========

Cette étude présente une nouvelle approche pour la génération
automatique de résumés, un des principaux défis du Traitement de la
Langue Naturelle. Ce sujet, traité pendant un demi-siècle par la
recherche, reste encore actuel car personne n'a encore réussi à créer
automatiquement des résumés comparables, en qualité, avec ceux produits
par des humains.
C'est dans ce contexte que la recherche en résumé automatique s'est 
divisée en deux grandes catégories : le résumé par extraction et le 
résumé par abstraction. Dans le premier, les phrases sont triées de 
façon à ce que les meilleures conforment le résumé final.
Or, les phrases sélectionnées pour le résumé portent souvent des 
informations secondaires, une analyse plus fine s'avère nécessaire.
Nous proposons une méthode de compression automatique de phrases basée 
sur l'élimination de fragments à l'intérieur de celles-ci.
A partir d'un corpus annoté, nous avons créé un modèle linéaire pour
prédire la suppression de ces fragments en fonction de caractéristiques
simples. Notre méthode prend en compte trois principes : celui de la
pertinence du contenu, l'informativité; celui de la qualité du contenu,
la grammaticalité, et la longueur, le taux de compression. Pour mesurer
l'informativité des fragments, nous utilisons une technique inspirée de
la physique statistique : l'énergie textuelle. Quant à la
grammaticalité, nous proposons d'utiliser des modèles de langage
probabilistes.
La méthode proposée est capable de générer des résumés corrects en
espagnol.  Les résultats de cette étude soulèvent divers aspects
intéressants vis-à- vis du résumé de textes par compression de phrases.
On a observé qu'en général il y a un haut degré de subjectivité de la
tâche. Il n'y a pas de compression optimale unique mais plusieurs
compressions correctes possibles. Nous considérons donc que les
résultats de cette étude ouvrent la discussion par rapport à la
subjectivité de l'informativité et son influence pour le résumé
automatique.

EACL 2014 SECOND CALL FOR TUTORIAL PROPOSALS

Proposals are invited for the Tutorial Program of the 14th Conference of
the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics
(EACL 2014), to be held in Gothenburg, Sweden, from 26 to 30 April
2014. The selected tutorials will be given on the Saturday and Sunday
preceding the main conference (26 and 27 April).

EACL 2014 seeks proposals for tutorials in all areas of computational
linguistics, broadly conceived to include disciplines such as
Linguistics, Speech, Information Retrieval, Psycholinguistics, and
Multimodal Processing. We particularly welcome (1) tutorials which cover
advances in newly emerging areas not previously covered in an *ACL
related tutorial, and (2) tutorials which provide introductions into
related fields which are potentially relevant for the CL community
(e.g. bioinformatics, neuroscience, human language processing, video and
image analysis, machine learning techniques). In order to gather a
widespread audience, the experience and qualifications of the
instructors will also be taken into account.


REMUNERATION

Remuneration for tutorials is regulated by ACL policies:

  http://aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php?title=Policy_on_tutorial_teacher_payment

Please note that remuneration for tutorial presenters is fixed according
to the above policy and does not cover registration fees for the main
conference.


SUBMISSION DETAILS

Proposals for tutorials should contain:

1. A title and brief description of the tutorial content and its
   relevance to the ACL community (not more than 2 pages).
2. A brief outline of the tutorial structure showing that the tutorial's
   core content can be covered in a three-hour slot (excluding a coffee
   break). In exceptional cases six-hour tutorial slots are available as
   well.
3. The names, postal addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses of
   the tutorial instructors, including a one-paragraph statement of
   their research interests and areas of expertise.
4. A list of previous venues and approximate audience sizes, if the same
   or a similar tutorial has been given elsewhere; otherwise an estimate
   of the audience size.
5. A description of special requirements for technical equipment
   (e.g. internet access). 

Proposals should be submitted by electronic mail, in plain ASCII text,
to "tutorials at eacl2014 dot org", no later than 1 November 2013. The
subject line should be: "EACL 2014 Tutorial Proposal". Please note that
only proposals submitted by e-mail will be taken into account.


TUTORIAL SPEAKER RESPONSIBILITIES

Accepted tutorial speakers will be notified by 15 November 2013, and
must then provide abstracts of their tutorials for inclusion in the
conference registration material by 15 December 2013. The description
should be in two formats: an ASCII version that can be included in email
announcements and published on the conference web site, and a PDF
version for inclusion in the electronic proceedings (detailed
instructions to follow).

Tutorial speakers must provide tutorial materials, at least containing
copies of the course slides as well as a bibliography for the material
covered in the tutorial, by 1 February 2014.

Vocalisations of Captive Guinea Baboons 

Résumé : As part of a larger study investigating vocal production in
Guinea baboons, I have been examining the vocalisations of a captive
group at the CNRS primate station in Rousset. The main goal of this
aspect of the project was to produce a large-scale database in order to
1) characterise the vocal repertoire of this baboon species, 2)
determine the acoustic features of the vocalisations, and 3) test the
descriptive adequacy of existing categories. Twelve vocalisations were
distinguishable by ear, but not all vocalisations were produced by all
age and sex groups. A single vocalisation type could occur in different
contexts and some vocalisations had a large degree of variability. This
database will be useful for new researchers and care staff who work with
Guinea baboons in captivity as well as aiding in our understanding of
the evolution of vocal communication between baboon taxa and within the
primate genera.

Apologies for cross-posting,
Submissions are invited for an Elsevier Knowledge-Based Systems special
issue on Big Data for Social Analysis.

RATIONALE
The textual information available on the Web can be broadly grouped into
two main categories: facts and opinions. Facts are objective expressions
about entities or events. Opinions are usually subjective expressions
that describe people's sentiments, appraisals, or feelings towards such
entities and events. Much of the existing research on textual
information processing has been focused on mining and retrieval of
factual information, e.g., text classification, text recognition, text
clustering, and many other text mining and natural language processing
(NLP) tasks. Little work had been done on the processing of opinions
until only recently.

One of the main reasons for the lack of study on opinions is the fact
that there was little opinionated text available before the recent
passage from a read-only to a read-write Web. Before that, in fact, when
people needed to make a decision, they typically asked for opinions from
friends and family. Similarly, when organizations wanted to find the
opinions or sentiments of the general public about their products and
services, they had to specifically ask people by conducting opinion
polls and surveys.

However, with the advent of the Social Web, the way people express their
views and opinions has dramatically changed. They can now post reviews
of products at merchant sites and express their views on almost anything
in Internet forums, discussion groups, and blogs. Such online
word-of-mouth behavior represents new and measurable sources of
information with many practical applications. Nonetheless, finding
opinion sources and monitoring them can be a formidable task because
there are a large number of diverse sources and each source may also
have a huge volume of opinionated text.

In many cases, in fact, opinions are hidden in long forum posts and
blogs. It is extremely time-consuming for a human reader to find
relevant sources, extract related sentences with opinions, read them,
summarize them, and organize them into usable forms. Thus, automated
opinion discovery and summarization systems are needed. Big social data
analysis grows out of this need and it includes disciplines such as
social network analysis, multimedia management, social media analytics,
trend discovery, and opinion mining. The opportunity to capture the
opinions of the general public about social events, political movements,
company strategies, marketing campaigns, and product preferences, in
particular, has raised growing interest both within the scientific
community.

All the opinion-mining tasks, however, are very challenging. Our
understanding and knowledge of the problem and its solution are still
limited. The main reason is that it is a NLP task, and NLP has no easy
problems. Another reason may be due to our popular ways of doing
research. So far, in fact, researchers have probably relied too much on
traditional machine-learning algorithms. Some of the most effective
machine-learning algorithms, in fact, produce no human understandable
results such that, although they may achieve improved accuracy, little
about how and why is known, apart from some superficial knowledge gained
in the manual feature engineering process. All such approaches,
moreover, rely on syntactical structure of text, which is far from the
way human mind processes natural language.

TOPICS
Articles are thus invited in area of knowledge-based systems for big
social data analysis. The broader context of the Special Issue
comprehends artificial intelligence, knowledge representation and
reasoning, natural language processing, and data mining. Topics include,
but are not limited to:
- Knowledge-based systems for big social data analysis
- Biologically inspired opinion mining
- Concept-level opinion and sentiment analysis
- Knowledge-based systems for social media retrieval and analysis
- Knowledge-based systems for social media marketing
- Social network modeling, simulation, and visualization
- Semantic multi-dimensional scaling for sentiment analysis
- Knowledge-based systems for patient opinion mining
- Sentic computing
- Multilingual and multimodal sentiment analysis
- Multimodal fusion for continuous interpretation of semantics
- Knowledge-based systems for time-evolving sentiment tracking
- Knowledge-based systems for cognitive agent-based computing
- Human-agent, -computer, and -robot interaction
- Domain adaptation for sentiment classification
- Affective common-sense reasoning
- Knowledge-based systems for user profiling and personalization

The Special Issue also welcomes papers on specific application domains
of knowledge-based systems for big social data analysis, e.g., influence
networks, customer experience management, intelligent user interfaces,
multimedia management, computer-mediated human-human communication,
enterprise feedback management, surveillance, art.

TIMEFRAME
November 1st, 2013: Paper submission deadline
December 1st, 2013: Notification of acceptance
January 1st, 2013: Final manuscript due
March/April, 2014: Publication

SUBMISSION AND PROCEEDINGS
The Special Issue will consist of papers on novel methods and approaches
that further develop and apply knowledge-based techniques in the context
of natural language processing and big social data analysis. Some papers
may survey various aspects of the topic. The balance between these will
be adjusted to maximize the issue's impact. All articles are expected to
successfully negotiate the standard review procedures for Elsevier
Knowledge-Based Systems. Contributions are invited in the form of
original high-quality research and review papers (preferably no more
than 20 double line spaced manuscript pages, including tables and
figures), following the formatting style for Elsevier. A submission that
has already been published in conference proceedings has to be submitted
as more than 45% update in comparison to the published version. The
title page should not include name, affiliation, and e-mail address of
the authors. All paper has to be submitted through thejournal electronic
submission EES via the dedicated special issue.

PhD Programme in Computer Science  at the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano

The Free University of Bozen-Bolzano was founded in 1997 as a
multilingual, internationally oriented institution.

A public competition for the allocation of PhD positions in the Faculty
of Computer Science is announced, for 10 places, of which 6 places will
be covered by grants. The PhD Programme lasts three years and the
official language of the programme is English.

PhD students are expected to work full-time on their research. During
the PhD, it is advisable to spend a period of 6-12 months at a national
or international research center.

Candidates are strongly advised to contact their desired research
centers at the Faculty of Computer Science before applying. This way,
they can obtain a clear idea of the specific research carried out at the
Faculty. It is expected that students are able to write and speak
fluently in English.

The Selection Committee selects PhD students based on a comparative
assessment of the qualification of applicants, taking into account also
feedback from potential supervisors, especially those who have grants
available to support the PhD students, and determines the winners based
on the merits of each candidate. The Selection Committee also selects
those candidates who are qualified to start a PhD program at the Free
University of Bozen/Bolzano, but who cannot be admitted for lack of
space. Should a selected winner not accept the position, such candidates
will be next in line for the position.

Instructions for application (pre-enrollment) can be found here:

http://www.unibz.it/en/inf/progs/phdcs

The application must be complete by 13 September 2013, 12:00 a.m.


Research Areas

Research in the Faculty of Computer Science is focused on three areas
that are treated on a long-term basis by research groups whose members
collectively examine topics related to each of the three research
areas. The research areas, with a selection of their research topics,
are:

Knowledge Representation and Databases
- web page: http://www.inf.unibz.it/krdb/
- contact person: Alessandro Artale artale at inf.unibz.it
Logic based languages for knowledge representation
Intelligent database access
Foundations of controlled natural language
Temporal aspects of data and knowledge representation
Extending database technologies

The research topics in knowledge representation are focused on
foundational and practical aspects of knowledge representation
technologies applied to information systems. The whole life cycle
ranging from the design to the deployment of such technologies is
covered: the conceptual modeling of various types of knowledge, the
linguistic and logical aspects of knowledge, the integration of
heterogeneous knowledge sources, including information coming from the
Internet, the usage of knowledge to support the intelligent retrieval of
information, and the usage of knowledge to create virtual services on
the net. 


Databases and Information Systems 
Management and analysis of large data sets
Temporal data models and databases
Data evolution and integration
Approximation techniques for large databases
Machine learning techniques for searching and selecting information

The research activities in the area of database and information systems
focus on key aspects of applied computer science, including data
warehousing and data mining, the integration of heterogeneous and
distributed databases, time-varying information, data models, and query
processing. The research approach is primarily constructive in its
outset, and it includes substantial experimental and analytical
elements. The development activities cover the design of data models and
structures, and the development of algorithms, data structures,
languages, and systems. The experimental activities verify real world
artifacts with the help of prototypes and simulations. The analytic
activities include the analysis of the algorithmic complexity and the
evaluation of languages. The main goal is theoretically sound results
that solve real world problems.

Software Engineering 
Agile methodologies, lean management, and open source
Measurement and assurance of software quality, reliability and
development
Distributed computing and distributed service-oriented architectures
Information technology and business alignment
Component-based development and reuse of software
Cooperative systems and interoperability of software

The research topics in software engineering are focused on the empirical
and quantitative study of innovative models for software
development. The target analysis techniques include both traditional
statistics, and new approaches, such as computational intelligence,
Bayesian models, and meta-analytical systems. The innovative software
development techniques include (a) methods based on lean management,
such as agile methods, with a specific interest for benchmarking and
identification of defects, and (b) open source development models, with
specific attention for self organizing systems and the analysis of the
resulting qualit

The doctoral works treat topics from the three research areas that
develop from the ongoing work of the groups.

The following list contains possible topics for doctoral work: 
Data-centric business processes
Data Quality for Linked Open Data
Process-Aware Business Intelligence

DEUXI?ME APPEL ? PROPOSITIONS

COLLOQUE INTERNATIONAL

? L?ARTICULATION DU LEXIQUE, DE LA GRAMMAIRE ET DU DISCOURS : MARQUEURS
GRAMMATICAUX ET MARQUEURS DISCURSIFS DATES

Vendredi 4 avril et samedi 5 avril 2014

LIEU

Universit? Paris 3 ? Sorbonne nouvelle

RESPONSABLES

- Ga?tane Dostie (Professeure de linguistique ? l?Universit? de
  Sherbrooke, Qu?bec ; Catifq)
- Florence Lefeuvre (Professeure de linguistique ? l?Universit? Paris 3
  - Sorbonne Nouvelle ; Syled-Clesthia (EA2290))

CADRE DE LA RENCONTRE

Ce colloque vise ? examiner des faits lexicaux qui se situent ? la
fronti?re de la grammaire et du discours. Deux types d?emplois bien
distincts de marqueurs retiendront particuli?rement l?attention :

i) Des emplois o? les morph?mes consid?r?s agissent ? titre de marqueurs
   grammaticaux, ce qui inclut notamment (L?ard en pr?paration) :

- Des usages o? ils donnent des informations relatives ? la quantit? et
  aux rep?res spatio-temporels (c?est-?-dire des usages o? ils
  effectuent des op?rations de quantification et de rep?rage sur les
  classes majeures de mots, comme les d?terminants, les auxiliaires,
  etc.) ;

- Des usages o? ils lient des mots, des syntagmes ou des propositions ?
  l'int?rieur des ?nonc?s (pr?positions, coordonnants et subordonnants).

ii) Des emplois o? les morph?mes cibl?s ont le statut de marqueurs
    discursifs. Contrairement aux emplois qui pr?c?dent, ils ne
    participent alors pas au contenu propositionnel des ?nonc?s auxquels
    ils sont joints (ex. : l? et t?sais) ou ils constituent par
    eux-m?mes des ?nonc?s (ex. : quand m?me dans certaines de ses
    utilisations ; entre autres, Vincent 1993 ; Fernandez-Vest 1994 ;
    Hansen, 1998 ; Br?mond 2002 ; Teston-Bonnard 2006 ; Lefeuvre 2006 ;
    Dostie et Pusch 2007).


L?objectif du colloque sera d?apporter quelques ?l?ments de r?ponses aux
questions suivantes, ? partir d?un examen minutieux de marqueurs qui, en
fran?ais actuel, c?est-?-dire en fran?ais en usage dans les ann?es 2000,
expriment ? la fois des sens grammaticaux et des sens discursifs, tels
parce que (cf. Debaisieux 1994), comme si, pis, mais, genre et quoi
(Lefeuvre, Morel et Teston-Bonnard 2011) :

1) Quels sont les types de marqueurs grammaticaux ?galement appel?s ?
   exprimer des sens discursifs et pourquoi (quelles sont leurs valeurs
   g?n?rales, ? quelles classes grammaticales appartiennent-ils, etc.) ?


2) Comment aborder, en synchronie, la polys?mie des marqueurs qui
   expriment tant?t des sens grammaticaux, tant?t des sens discursifs ?
   En particulier, l?approche selon laquelle il existerait
   syst?matiquement un invariant s?mantique en langue est-elle
   d?fendable pour ce type d?unit?s lexicales ?


3) Quelle part r?server ? la synonymie dans le domaine cibl? ? Ainsi, la
   synonymie exacte (en langue) entre deux marqueurs est-elle possible ?
   grande ?chelle (c?est-?-dire autrement que de mani?re ponctuelle)
   dans un style communicatif donn? (par exemple, dans la langue parl?e
   famili?re ou encore dans la langue parl?e usit?e en contexte formel)?

4) Comment aborder la probl?matique de l?association, entre eux, des
   marqueurs ? valeur grammaticale, d?une part, et des marqueurs ?
   valeur discursive, d?autre part ? La notion de ?collocation? (ou de
   ?semi-figement?) a-t-elle sa place ici et si oui, comment la
   mod?liser ?

5) Comment repr?senter, de mani?re optimale, les sens et les diverses
   propri?t?s formelles des marqueurs grammaticaux et discursifs dans
   les ouvrages de r?f?rence (c?est-?-dire dans les dictionnaires et les
   grammaires) ? Y aurait-il lieu de d?velopper des syst?mes de
   repr?sentations compl?mentaires ? ceux qui servent de point d?ancrage
   aux ouvrages de r?f?rence traditionnels ? Si oui, quelles formes ces
   syst?mes devraient-ils prendre ?

Les diff?rentes questions formul?es ci-dessus seront abord?es par le
biais de donn?es authentiques susceptibles d?alimenter, en filigrane, la
r?flexion relative ? la dia-variation lexicale en fran?ais actuel
(diatopique, diastratique et diaphasique) dans les domaines cibl?s par
le colloque.

Workshop on Optimizing understanding in multilingual hospital encounters

October 20th, 2013 - University of Paris 13, Paris (F)

http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Workshops_hospital.html

In conjunction with the International Conference on Terminology and
Artificial Intelligence TIA 2013
*****************************************************
dead-line for paper submission: September 10th, 2013
*****************************************************

In this workshop we will bring together participants who have solutions
for one or more of the following problems: How can mutual understanding
be optimized with the help of technology in hospitals where both
patients and professionals have varying language skills, cultural
backgrounds and cognitive capacities? Can domain ontologies, natural
language processing tools, multilingual knowledge-based tools,
multilingual terminology resources and other semantic technologies be
combined in order to enhance the quality of mutual understanding between
humans?

Multi-language web apps already exist that make it easier for different
health professionals to improve communication through the use of
terminology and phrases like standard questions and explanations in
multiple languages. We solicit ideas on how technology can optimize the
usability of this type of resource and of other types of resources and
on how new technologies can reuse all types of existing terminological
resources.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers from several
domains, and practitioners from industry, academia and health policy
making bodies to report on recent developments, achievements, technology
trends and research results on projects concerning the optimization of
understanding in multilingual hospital encounters and the possibilities
of applying web-based technologies to this end.


What follows is a non-exhaustive list of topics of interest for this
workshop.

. One of the topics is how cloud-based technology can optimize
  understanding in caretaker - caregiver communication in a variety of
  hospital settings where misunderstanding might be lurking because of
  incompatible language skills, cultural differences, terminology,
  etc. We welcome contributions in the field of current semantic
  web-based technologies, techniques and tools with the aim of reusing
  distributed data on the web and exploring web- based health
  applications.

. We also solicit examples of service-oriented collective intelligence
  and language resource interoperability. How can existing hospital
  infrastructures of several kinds be designed for caregivers and for
  caretakers as end users?

. A clinical pathway is a decision-tree based on clinical assessment
  that guides the triage, history taking and further examination of a
  patient with a particular clinical problem. We solicit examples of
  clinical pathways for identifying and treating specific disorders at
  triage and history taking in hospital emergency wards where caretakers
  and patients do not speak the same language, in which the linguistic
  and cultural background of a patient are taken into consideration.

. General-purpose machine translation tools are not reliable for the
  translation of medical records. We solicit examples of the use of
  machine translation tools (trained to target specific domains in
  medicine?) to enhance understanding between caregivers and caretakers
  in well-defined contexts.

We invite you to send a short paper (4 pages, presentation time 15
minutes)

Dans le cadre du 10e colloque international Terminologie et Intelligence
Artificielle (TIA) qui se tiendra ? l?Universit? Paris 13 du 28 au 30
octobre 2013 (http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Home.html), est
organis? un atelier sur le th?me suivant :

Mouvements des termes et impact sur les ressources sp?cialis?es

Depuis les ann?es 1990, les travaux men?s en terminologie ont clairement
montr? que les termes sont sujets ? variation. Parall?lement, on sait
aujourd?hui que les causes de la variation terminologique sont
nombreuses, ce que montre notamment Judit Freixa dans un article paru en
2004.

Dans de nombreux cas, la variation terminologique r?sulte de ?
mouvements ? des termes et des concepts, mouvements qui s?effectuent
dans le temps (on parlera alors de variation diachronique) ou dans
l?espace (variation diatopique), comme l?illustre la variation
topolectale observable dans certains domaines entre la France, la Suisse
et le Qu?bec, par exemple.  Bien que moins d?crite, la variation
terminologique peut aussi se situer sur le plan social (variation
diastratique). Par ailleurs, d?autres causes de mouvements lexicaux
m?ritent une attention particuli?re dans une perspective
terminologique. C?est le cas, entre autres, des liens entre domaines et
du passage d?unit?s lexicales de la langue g?n?rale vers les langues de
sp?cialit?, et inversement (terminologisation et d?terminologisation,
ph?nom?nes d?crits et nomm?s par Ingrid Meyer).

Bien que ces mouvements lexicaux soient attest?s et ? au moins
partiellement ? d?crits, le point de vue g?n?ralement adopt? sur le
terme, en fonction de domaines de sp?cialit? cloisonn?s et en
synchronie, ne permet pas de d?crire et de saisir ad?quatement ces
mouvements et, de fait, de les traiter en terminologie. L??tude
th?orique de la variation devrait pourtant d?boucher sur des approches
m?thodologiques visant une prise en charge terminographique des divers
types de variation dans les dictionnaires ?lectroniques, les bases de
donn?es lexicales et les ontologies.

Partant de ce constat, l?objectif de l?atelier est de nourrir la
r?flexion sur la nature, l?impact et les besoins de prise en charge de
la variation terminologique pour la communication sp?cialis?e et/ou dans
les ressources terminographiques, ? travers le prisme des diff?rents
types de ? mouvements ? qui la conditionnent. Nous esp?rons r?unir des
chercheurs provenant de disciplines vari?es (terminologie, linguistique
de corpus, lexicologie, lexicographie et informatique, sciences
cognitives, etc.), dont les diff?rents regards permettront d?enrichir la
r?flexion sur le sujet.

*** Extended deadline : 15 September 2013

As a satellite event to the 10th International Conference on Terminology
and Artificial Intelligence (TIA) that will take place at Universit?
Paris 13 from October 28th to October 30th 2013 (
http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Home.html), the following
multidisciplinary workshop will be held:

Lexical movement and its impact on specialised resources

Since the 1990?s, research in terminology has clearly demonstrated that
terms are subject to variation. It is now a known fact that the causes
for terminological variation are numerous, as described by Judit Freixa
in an article published in 2004.

In many cases, terminological variation is the result of different
"movements" of terms and concepts which are happening either in time (we
then speak of diachronic variation) or space (diatopic variation) as can
be observed through the regional variation between France, Switzerland
and Quebec, for example. Similarly, although less described,
terminological variation can also happen at the social level (diastratic
variation). Other causes of lexical movements also need to be
investigated from a terminological perspective, such as the links
between subject fields and the migration of terms from general language
to specialized languages, or vice-versa (the terminologization and
determinologisation phenomena, as described and named by Ingrid Meyer).

Although these movements are documented and?at least
partially?described, the point of view generally adopted to describe
terms, which is subject-specific and synchronic, does not allow for an
adequate description and understanding of those movements, which are
not, consequently, adequately handled in the framework of
terminology. The study of term variation from a theoretical point of
view should lead to methodological approaches which would allow for the
proper management of the different types of variation in electronic
dictionaries, lexical databases and ontologies.

Based on these observations, the objective of this workshop is to fuel
reflection on the nature of terminological variation, its impacts, and
what would be required to support terminological variation for
specialized communication and/or terminographical resources, through the
various types of "movements" such variation is built on. This workshop
hopes to bring together researchers from disciplines such as
terminology, corpus linguistics, lexicology, lexicography, computer
science and cognitive science in order to gain different perspectives on
the subject.



Topics

Topic 1 ? Identification of the need to take into account terminological
variation related to lexical movements (diachronic, diatopic,
diastratic, etc.).

o Case studies or examples that show the importance of taking variation
  into account in various contexts related to terminology, translation,
  ontology building or enrichment, information retrieval, lexicography,
  etc.

o Impact on knowledge management and linguistic risk mitigation, and
  potential solutions for such problems

Topic 2 - Methodological proposals for tracking or processing variation

o Using specialized comparable corpus, resources comparison, use of
  ontologies, tools, annotations, etc.

o Using the Web as corpus for tracking

Topic 3 - Methods for taking variation into account in terminographical
and lexicographical resources or ontologies

o Methods to handle lexical movements in different types of resources

o Proposed formalization for different applications

o Strengths and limitations

This list is not closed and propositions for any related issues are
welcome.

CALL FOR PAPERS 
====================================================================== 

The 9th International Conference on 
SIGNAL IMAGE TECHNOLOGY & INTERNET-BASED SYSTEMS (SITIS?13) 
December 2 - 5, 2013 

In cooperation with ACM SIGAPP French Chapter and 
IEEE Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing 

Kyoto Terrsa, Japan 

http://www.sitis-conf.org/ 

====================================================================== 

The SITIS conference is dedicated to research on the technologies used
to represent, share and process information in various forms, ranging
from signal, image, and multimedia data to traditional structured data
and semi-structured data found in the web.

SITIS spans two inter-related research domains that increasingly play a
key role in connecting systems across network centric environments to
allow distributed computing and information sharing.

SITIS 2013 aims to provide a forum for high quality presentations on
research activities centered on three main tracks:

- The first track titled "Web Computing and Applications (WeCA)" focuses
  on emerging and novel concepts, architectures, technologies, and
  methodologies for information management related to the Web and cloud
  computing. In essence, the Web, with its different versions, has
  created an interconnected world in which information can be exchanged
  easily, tasks can be processed collaboratively, communities of users
  with similarly interests can be formed to achieve efficiency and
  improve performance, etc. Taking full advantage of these
  interconnected environments to meet the ever increasing needs of
  emerging applications requires solutions that address new issues and
  challenges. The track calls for research papers and reports directed
  at several areas including: Data Semantics, Web-Centric Systems, Big
  Data, Information System Interoperability, Cloud, Cooperative
  information and Distributed Systems, and Information security

- The second track titled "Signal & Image Technologies (SIT)" focuses on
  recent developments in digital signal processing and pays particular
  attention to evolutions in audiovisual signal processing, analysis,
  coding and authentication, and retrieval techniques.  The track calls
  for research papers and reports directed at several areas
  including:Image Processing and Analysis, Signal processing,
  Image/Video Coding and Authentication, and Applications

- The third track titled "Multimedia Information Retrieval and
  Application (MIRA)" focuses on emerging modeling, representation and
  retrieval techniques that take into account the amount, type and
  diversity of multimedia information accessible in distributed
  computing environment.  The internet, social networking, multimedia
  databases and management of multimedia cultural collections have
  created the need for cross-fields models, paradigms and techniques for
  efficient modeling, management and consumption of multimedia
  contents. The track calls for research papers and reports directed at
  several areas including Multimedia Query and Retrieval; Mobile and
  Location-Based Media, Social media and Social networking, Multimedia
  Security, and Multimedia Arts, Entertainment and Digital Culture.


Submission and publication 
-------------------------- 

The conference will include keynote addresses, tutorials, and regular
and workshop sessions. SITIS 2013 invites submission of high quality and
original papers on the topics of the major tracks described below.  All
submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers for
technical merit, originality, significance and relevance to track
topics.

Papers must be up to 8 pages and follow IEEE double columns publication
format.  Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings
and published by IEEE Computer Society and referenced in IEEE explore
and major indexes.

                      CALL FOR PAPERS 

                 Journal of Language Modelling

                     SPECIAL ISSUE ON

       High-level Methodologies for Grammar Engineering

	  	 http://jlm.ipipan.waw.pl/


Special Issue Description 
-------------------------

Many grammatical frameworks have been proposed over the last decades to
describe the syntax (and semantics) of natural language. Among the most
widely used, one may cite (in chronological order) Tree-Adjoining
Grammar (TAG) [Joshi et al., 1975], Lexical-Functional Grammar (LFG)
[Bresnan and Kaplan, 1982], Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG)
[Steedman, 1987], or Head- driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG)
[Pollard and Sag, 1994]. These frameworks present theoretical and
practical interests. From a theoretical point of view, they provide a
formal device for the linguist to experiment with her/his theories.
from a practical point of view, they make it possible to automatically
process natural language in applications such as dialog systems, machine
translation, etc. They differ in their expressivity and complexity. Some
prove more suitable for the description of a given language than
others. Still, for many of these frameworks, large resources (e.g.,
grammars) have been designed, at first by hand, and later via dedicated
tools (e.g., integrated grammar environments such as XLE for LFG [King
et al., 2000]). In this Special Issue, we are concerned with this
complex task of grammar engineering, keeping in mind the two
above-mentioned theoretical and practical interests.

2e APPEL ? COMMUNICATIONS

Journ?e d?Etude
L?annotation de la subjectivit? langagi?re
M?thodes, Mod?lisation, Outils, Retours d?exp?rience

3 octobre 2013
Maison de la Recherche, Universit? Paris-Sorbonne, 28 rue Serpente 
75006 Paris

F?d?ration de recherche ILF (Institut de la Langue Fran?aise)
Consortium Corpus Ecrits, Groupe de travail Annotation de haut niveau

Depuis quelques ann?es, le th?me de la recherche d?informations dans de
tr?s grands corpus et sur le WEB, tout particuli?rement dans le domaine
de l?expression des ?motions et des opinions (sentiment analysis),
int?resse de nombreux sp?cialistes tant dans le domaine des sciences du
langage que dans celui des industries de la langue. D?autre part, le
consortium Corpus Ecrits de l?ILF est impliqu? dans un projet de
cr?ation d?un grand corpus de r?f?rence du fran?ais.
C?est dans ce contexte que s?inscrit la journ?e d??tude du Groupe de
travail Annotation de haut niveau (consortium Corpus Ecrits de l?ILF) du
3 octobre 2013. Elle sera l?occasion de cibler plus particuli?rement le
th?me de l?annotation de la subjectivit? langagi?re, en vue d?un tour
d?horizon des premiers r?sultats obtenus et des travaux en cours.

Les ?tudes vis?es pourront porter sur :

- la linguistique des ?motions et des sentiments
- la linguistique des opinions
- les ph?nom?nes ?nonciatifs relevant de l?expression de la subjectivit?
- ou de mani?re plus cibl?e, sur les aspects et les facettes des
  jugements ?valuatifs : point de vue (engagement, prise en charge),
  polarit?, intensit?, identit?, etc.

La probl?matique de l?annotation peut ?tre abord?e selon les 
perspectives suivantes :

- la mod?lisation linguistique et informatique de la subjectivit?
  langagi?re
- l?expression en langue et en discours
- la construction, l?acquisition et la validation des ressources
  linguistiques (dictionnaires, corpus...)
- les m?thodes et les outils pour identifier, annoter et extraire
  opinions et sentiments dans des documents textuels ou audiovisuels
- la pr?sentation synth?tique de la diversit? des contenus subjectifs.

L?annotation des donn?es langagi?res soul?ve de nombreuses questions,
touchant par exemple ? la nature de l?objet ? annoter (notion, forme,
structure), au choix des corpus et des strat?gies d?annotation (manuelle
ou automatique), ? la d?limitation des ph?nom?nes ? annoter, ? la
gestion des cas particuliers, aux comp?tences des annotateurs (na?fs ou
experts).
Il s?agira de d?terminer comment les travaux actuels sur la subjectivit?
se saisissent de ces questions, et quelles r?ponses ils apportent.


TYPES DE COMMUNICATION
Les auteurs peuvent pr?senter leurs travaux sous forme d?une
communication orale, d?un poster ou d?une d?monstration informatique.

MODALIT?S DE SOUMISSION

Les propositions de communications devront se pr?senter sous la forme
d?un r?sum? de 2 ? 3 pages, bibliographie incluse (Times New Roman 12,

*Extension de date*

[An English text follows.]

Dans le cadre du 10^e colloque international Terminologie et
Intelligence Artificielle (TIA) qui se tiendra ? l'Universit? Paris 13
du 28 au 30 octobre 2013
(http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Home.html), est organis? un
atelier sur le th?me suivant :

*Mouvements des termes et impact sur les ressources sp?cialis?es*

Depuis les ann?es 1990, les travaux men?s en terminologie ont clairement
montr? que les termes sont sujets ? variation. Parall?lement, on sait
aujourd'hui que les causes de la variation terminologique sont
nombreuses, ce que montre notamment Judit Freixa dans un article paru en
2004.

Dans de nombreux cas, la variation terminologique r?sulte de ?
mouvements ? des termes et des concepts, mouvements qui s'effectuent
dans le temps (on parlera alors de variation diachronique) ou dans
l'espace (variation diatopique), comme l'illustre la variation
topolectale observable dans certains domaines entre la France, la Suisse
et le Qu?bec, par exemple. Bien que moins d?crite, la variation
terminologique peut aussi se situer sur le plan social (variation
diastratique). Par ailleurs, d'autres causes de mouvements lexicaux
m?ritent une attention particuli?re dans une perspective terminologique.
C'est le cas, entre autres, des liens entre domaines et du passage
d'unit?s lexicales de la langue g?n?rale vers les langues de sp?cialit?,
et inversement (terminologisation et d?terminologisation, ph?nom?nes
d?crits et nomm?s par Ingrid Meyer).

Bien que ces mouvements lexicaux soient attest?s et --- au moins
partiellement --- d?crits, le point de vue g?n?ralement adopt? sur le
terme, en fonction de domaines de sp?cialit? cloisonn?s et en
synchronie, ne permet pas de d?crire et de saisir ad?quatement ces
mouvements et, de fait, de les traiter en terminologie. L'?tude
th?orique de la variation devrait pourtant d?boucher sur des approches
m?thodologiques visant une prise en charge terminographique des divers
types de variation dans les dictionnaires ?lectroniques, les bases de
donn?es lexicales et les ontologies.

Partant de ce constat, l'objectif de l'atelier est de nourrir la
r?flexion sur la nature, l'impact et les besoins de prise en charge de
la variation terminologique pour la communication sp?cialis?e et/ou dans
les ressources terminographiques, ? travers le prisme des diff?rents
types de ? mouvements ? qui la conditionnent. Nous esp?rons r?unir des
chercheurs provenant de disciplines vari?es (terminologie, linguistique
de corpus, lexicologie, lexicographie et informatique, sciences
cognitives, etc.), dont les diff?rents regards permettront d'enrichir la
r?flexion sur le sujet.

*Principaux th?mes*

* Axe 1 : Identification du besoin de prise en compte de la variation
  terminologique li?e ? des mouvements lexicaux (diachroniques,
  diatopiques, diastratiques, etc.)*

 o Etudes de cas ou exemples qui mettent en ?vidence l'importance d'une
   prise en compte pour diff?rents contextes (ex. terminologie,
   traduction, construction ou enrichissement d'ontologies, recherche
   d'information, lexicographie, etc.)

 o Impact sur la gestion des connaissances ou la gestion du risque
   langagier ; solutions envisag?es pour y r?pondre

* Axe 2 : Propositions m?thodologiques de rep?rage ou de traitement de
  la variation terminologique*

  o Utilisation de corpus sp?cialis?s comparables, comparaison de
    ressources, utilisation d'ontologies, outils, annotations, etc.

  o Utilisation du web comme corpus de rep?rage

* Axe 3 : Prise en charge de la variation dans les ressources
  terminographiques, lexicographiques ou les ontologies*

  o Modalit?s de prise en charge des mouvements lexicaux dans diff?rents
    types de ressources

  o Propositions de formalisation pour diff?rentes applications

  o Atouts et limites de la prise en charge

Cette liste n'est pas exhaustive, et toute proposition de question ou de
probl?matisation sera la bienvenue.

*2^nd call for papers + deadline extension *

As a satellite event to the 10^th International Conference on
Terminology and Artificial Intelligence (TIA) that will take place at
Universit? Paris 13 from October 28^th to October 30^th 2013
(http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Home.html), the following
multidisciplinary workshop will be held:

*Lexical movement and its impact on specialised resources*

Since the 1990's, research in terminology has clearly demonstrated that
terms are subject to variation. It is now a known fact that the causes
for terminological variation are numerous, as described by Judit Freixa
in an article published in 2004.

In many cases, terminological variation is the result of different
"movements" of terms and concepts which are happening either in time (we
then speak of diachronic variation) or space (diatopic variation) as can
be observed through the regional variation between France, Switzerland
and Quebec, for example. Similarly, although less described,
terminological variation can also happen at the social level (diastratic
variation). Other causes of lexical movements also need to be
investigated from a terminological perspective, such as the links
between subject fields and the migration of terms from general language
to specialized languages, or vice-versa (the terminologization and
determinologisation phenomena, as described and named by Ingrid Meyer).

Although these movements are documented and---at least
partially---described, the point of view generally adopted to describe
terms, which is subject-specific and synchronic, does not allow for an
adequate description and understanding of those movements, which are
not, consequently, adequately handled in the framework of terminology.
The study of term variation from a theoretical point of view should lead
to methodological approaches which would allow for the proper management
of the different types of variation in electronic dictionaries, lexical
databases and ontologies.

Based on these observations, the objective of this workshop is to fuel
reflection on the nature of terminological variation, its impacts, and
what would be required to support terminological variation for
specialized communication and/or terminographical resources, through the
various types of "movements" such variation is built on. This workshop
hopes to bring together researchers from disciplines such as
terminology, corpus linguistics, lexicology, lexicography, computer
science and cognitive science in order to gain different perspectives on
the subject.

*Topics*

* Topic 1 -- Identification of the need to take into account
  terminological variation related to lexical movements (diachronic,
  diatopic, diastratic, etc.).*

  o Case studies or examples that show the importance of taking
    variation into account in various contexts related to terminology,
    translation, ontology building or enrichment, information retrieval,
    lexicography, etc.

  o Impact on knowledge management and linguistic risk mitigation, and
    potential solutions for such problems

* Topic 2 - Methodological proposals for tracking or processing
  variation*

  o Using specialized comparable corpus, resources comparison, use of
    ontologies, tools, annotations, etc.

  o Using the Web as corpus for tracking

* Topic 3 - Methods for taking variation into account in
  terminographical and lexicographical resources or ontologies*

  o Methods to handle lexical movements in different types of resources

  o Proposed formalization for different applications

  o Strengths and limitations

This list is not closed and propositions for any related issues are
welcome.

**

http://eacl2014.org/

Demonstrations Chair: Marko Tadi? (University of Zagreb, Faculty of
Humanities and Social Sciences)

The EACL 2014 Program Committee invites proposals for the Demonstrations
Program. This program is primarily to encourage the early exhibition of
research prototypes, but interesting mature systems are also
eligible. Commercial sales and marketing activities are not appropriate
in the Demonstration program.


AREAS OF INTEREST

We would like to encourage the submission of proposals for
demonstrations of software related to any areas of computational
linguistics and natural language processing. Areas of interest include,
but are not limited to:

- Natural language processing systems, including
  + Dialog systems and interfaces
  + Machine translation systems and translation aids
  + Message and narrative understanding systems
  + Language-oriented information retrieval and information extraction
    systems
- Application systems using embedded language technology components
- Reusable components (parsers, generators, taggers, speech
  recognizers,...)
- Software tools for facilitating linguistic research
- Software for demonstrating or evaluating computational linguistics
  research
- Aids for teaching computational linguistics concepts.


FORMAT FOR SUBMISSION

Demo Proposals consist of the following parts, which should all be sent
using the EACL 2014 sub-conference submission procedure at
https://www.softconf.com/eacl2014/demos/:

- An abstract of the technical content to be demonstrated, not to exceed
  four pages formatted according to the EACL 2014 style guidelines
  (http://www.eacl2014.org/files/eacl-2014-styles.zip), including title,
  authors, full contact information, references and acknowledgements.

- A detailed description of hardware and software requirements expected
  to be provided by the local organizer. Demonstrators are encouraged to
  be flexible in their requirements (possibly with different demos for
  different logistical situations). Please state what you can bring
  yourself and what you absolutely must have provided. We will do our
  best to provide equipment and resources but nothing can be guaranteed
  at this point beyond space and power. Please contact the demo chair at
  one of the addresses below for any specific questions.

- At least one author of each accepted demo paper must register for and
  attend the conference, and demonstrate the system during the demo
  sessions


SUBMISSIONS PROCEDURE

Proposals should be submitted by 10 January 2014 using the EACL 2014
START web page for Demos: https://www.softconf.com/eacl2014/demos/.

Submissions will be evaluated on the basis of their relevance to
computational linguistics, innovation, scientific contribution,
presentation, and user friendliness, as well as potential logistical
constraints.

OTHER DETAILS

Further details on the the demonstrations sessions will be determined
and provided at a later date.

IMPORTANT DATES

- Demo proposal submissions due: 10 January 2014
- Notification to authors: 1 February 2014
- Camera-ready due: 15 February 2014
- EACL conference dates: 26-30 April 2014

From: thierry.hamon at UNIV-PARIS13.FR (Thierry Hamon)
Date: Sat, 7 Sep 2013 11:46:49 +0200
Subject: Appel: Workshop LTC, Less Resourced Languages, new technologies,
 new challenges and opportunities
Message-ID: <SAT.7.SEP.2013.114649.0200.THIERRY.HAMON@UNIVPARIS13.FR>

The third LTC Workshop on "Less Resourced Languages, new technologies,
new challenges and opportunities", will be held in conjunction with the
Language Technology Conference in Poznan, Poland, on 8 December 2013.

General Conference website: http://www.ltc.amu.edu.pl/

Workshop Theme:

Many less resourced languages (LRL) that are thriving to get a place in
the digital space and that could profit of the new opportunities offered
by the Internet and digital devices will seriously face digital
extinction if they are not supported by Language Technologies. Language
Technologies (LTs, i.e. spelling and grammar checkers, electronic
dictionaries, localized interfaces, voice dictations, audio
transcriptions and subtitling, as well as multimedia/multimodal search
engines, language translators or information extraction tools) are
essential instruments to secure usability of less resourced languages
within the digital world, thus ensuring those languages equal
opportunities and raising their profile in the eyes of natives but also
non-natives from the younger, digitally-oriented generation. However,
there are many challenges to be faced to equip less resourced languages
with LTs (from basic to advanced): a substantial delay in development of
basic technologies, a lack of cooperation among languages communities, a
chronic shortage of funding (in particular for minority languages not
officially recognized, yet often the most vital ones over the Internet)
and the limited economic value placed over LTs for minority languages by
the market rules. At this critical time, this workshop seeks to continue
the debate as to what new technologies have to offer less resourced
languages, and how the research community might seek to overcome the
challenges and exploit the opportunities.

Paper submission deadline: 22 September 2013

We invite papers addressing the topics listed, but not limited to, the
ones below:

- Experiences in the development of digital applications for LRLs
- LRLs in educational and entertainment applications
- LRTs for securing access and inclusion to speakers of LRLs
- Development of LRs through crowdsourcing
- Youth-oriented applications for revitalisation of LRLs
- Experiences/models of cooperation for development of LRTs for LRLs
- Business models
- Gaps in availability of LRTs for LRLs
- Development of LTs when LRs are missing
- LR&Ts as a booster for the adoption of LRL within the digital world
- Lessons learnt from major recent infrastructure initiatives
- Infrastructures for making available LR and LT in all languages, and
  especially in the less-resourced ones
- Assessing Availability, Quality, Maturity and Sustainability of LT and
  LR , comparing the LRLs and the major ones
- Requirements for the production, validation and distribution of LR for
  less-resourced languages

Program (general framework): The workshop will comprise presentations
(including keynote talks) and a panel session, including an EC
representative . The details of the program is in preparation and will
be published soon on the conference site.

Co-Chairs: Claudia Soria (CNR-ILC, Italy), Khalid Choukri (ELRA, ELDA,
France), Joseph Mariani (LIMSI-CNRS & IMMI, France), Zygmunt Vetulani
(Adam Mickiewicz University, Poland).

======================================

SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS

Joint Symposium on Semantic Processing:
Textual Inference and Structures in Corpora
FBK, Trento (Italy), November 20-22, 2013
http://jssp2013.fbk.eu/

Endorsed by ACL SIGLEX and ACL SIGSEM

Submission deadline: September 15, 2013

======================================


In the last decade, many Natural Language Processing tasks have matured
to a point where semantic questions, ranging from paraphrasing to
relevance assessment to disambiguation, are coming into the focus of
attention. This symposium aims at bringing together researchers from
different strands of research on semantic processing, with a focus on
two aspects.

The first is the textual inference paradigm, proposed as a unifying
generic framework that captures major semantic processing needs in
different application areas. Textual entailment research has yielded so
far a range of inference algorithms, which were mostly developed within
individual "in-house" systems. The symposium aims at addressing current
bottlenecks by discussing future research directions and perspectives
for consolidation and unification of textual inference technology. The
second aspect concerns linguistic structures, as identified by empirical
work within corpus linguistics, whose benefit for Computational
Linguistics has not yet been fully realized. The aim of the symposium is
to suggest progress towards models of language that facilitate
successful processing of semantic knowledge in natural language
applications.

The symposium is open to any research topic related to textual inference
and structures in corpora. More specifically, topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:

- Tools for textual inference
- Resources for textual inference
- Unification and consolidation in textual inference
- Textual inference in real-world scenarios
- Textual inference and other textual relations
- Evaluation methodologies of textual inference
- Multilingual and language-independent techniques for textual inference
- Cross-lingual textual entailment
- Representation of lexical and phrasal meaning: syntax-semantics
  interface
- Syntax-lexical semantics interface
- Shallow and deep semantic processing and reasoning: rule-based and
  probabilistic methods
- Learning textual inference rules from data
- Pattern extraction from corpus
- Grammar inference
- Distributional semantics
- Semantic parsing
- Modelling lexicon and context in semantic interpretation
- Semantic roles labelling
- Normalization for a broad range of semantic categories
- Design decisions in construction of semantic frames
- Extension of semantic frames
- Representing and resolving semantic ambiguity
- Context extraction for word sense disambiguation
- Open domain relation extraction
- Open domain event extraction
- Large scale event extraction and event classification
- Dynamic event relationships
- Building and using ontologies to model inference
- Computational modeling of linguistic theories
- Alignment of lexical resources
- Applications of textual inference and semantic processing

The Symposium is a joint event supported by the EU-funded project
EXCITEMENT (http://www.excitement-project.eu/), which aims to set up a
generic architecture and a comprehensive open-source platform for
multilingual textual inference, and by the B-CROCE project, which is the
beneficiary of a Marie Curie Integration grant dedicated to finding
regular structures as patterns in corpora. The symposium benefits from
the participation of a large number of keynote presentations by people
whose research has had a significant impact on semantic processing.

The symposium aims at providing a stimulating and intriguing forum for
mutual update and discussion of these research directions in semantic
processing, and we hope to attract a substantial number of involved
senior and junior researchers worldwide. To that end, the symposium will
have a special structure, including:

* A large number of keynote presentations by people whose research has
  had a significant impact in semantic processing

* Presentations of submitted papers (oral and poster sessions)

* Two panel discussions (one on each aspect of the symposium)

* Two tutorials: the textual-inference tutorial will present the new
  open-source platform provided by the EXCITEMENT project (inference
  engines, modules and knowledge resources); the other tutorial will
  focus on corpus patterns (theoretical and computational aspects of
  corpus pattern analysis, sense-stable patterns, chain clarifying
  relationships, frames, argument structures). Both tutorials include a
  hands-on session.

All the details concerning the event may be found on the Symposium's web
page http://jssp2013.fbk.eu

*Donn?es hybrides et contextualisation des corpus. (English CFP below)**
Nouvelles approches en sciences du langage.*

23-24 mai 2014

PLEIADE (CENEL), Universit? Paris 13, Sorbonne Paris Cit? EDA,
?ducation, Discours, Apprentissage, EA 4071, Universit? Paris Descartes
SYLED, Syst?mes linguistiques, ?nonciation, discours/,/ EA 2290,
Universit? Sorbonne-Nouvelle, Paris 3

Aujourd'hui, les doctorants travaillent sur des corpus de plus en plus
diversifi?s et multimodaux. Les corpus peuvent ?tre livresques,
num?riques, multim?dia (sites internet de presse en ligne, forum...),
plurilingues ou bien encore pluris?miotiques, comme une collection
d'objets ou d'oeuvres d'art contextualisant les discours d'exposition
artistiques, des enregistrements audio-visuels dans des espaces publics
(avec la prise en compte de la gestuelle), ou encore les objets
fun?raires pos?s sur les pierres tombales en rapport avec des ?pitaphes.

Face ? ces corpus h?t?rog?nes, hybrides, les sciences du langage et
l'analyse du discours n'apportent pas toujours un cadre d'analyse
ad?quat. La notion d'hybridit? en discours est l'objet de
questionnements et de publications (Gambier et Suomela-Salmi 2011). Par
ailleurs, les discours ou les repr?sentations en discours contribuent ?
une s?miotisation de l'espace (Turpin 2012). En revanche, les modalit?s
d'analyse de corpus hybrides entendus comme un ensemble de donn?es
linguistiques en contexte, c'est-?-dire situ?es dans un environnement
signifiant, constituent de nouveaux points de questionnement pour notre
discipline.

Si notre objet ? premier ? est le discours, nous voulons le travailler
en relation avec son contexte pluris?miotique, en utilisant les
ressources qu'offrent d'autres domaines de connaissances comme
l'iconologie, souvent utile par exemple pour analyser les dessins de
presse ou encore la s?miologie. Ce colloque vise ? apporter des ?l?ments
th?oriques pour une analyse discursive de corpus en contexte. Les
communications devront exposer clairement les questionnements et les
partis pris d'ordre ? la fois r?flexif, m?thodologique ou
?pist?mologique quant aux traitements de donn?es de plus en plus
h?t?rog?nes. Il s'adresse aux doctorants en sciences du langage, et
particuli?rement aux discursivistes, quelle que soit leur universit? de
rattachement, en France et ? l'?tranger.

**

*Les contributions porteront principalement sur les axes suivants, qui
pourront bien s?r ?tre travaill?s en lien : *

*--Axe 1 :**Contexte* :

- Comment prendre en compte les donn?es environnementales dans le cadre
  d'une analyse discursive qui n'opposerait plus les contextes
  linguistiques aux contextes non linguistiques mais travaillerait ces
  deux notions en lien ?

- Quel doit ?tre le positionnement du chercheur alors qu'il travaille
  sur des donn?es dans des contextes ? sensibles ? (cf Vulbeau 2007, Lee
  1993 ou encore Lee-Trewek 2000) ?

*--Axe 2 : Corpus hybrides**pluris?miotiques *:

- Comment traiter, avec quels outils m?thodologiques et
  ?pist?mologiques, l'h?t?rog?n?it? des supports des textes et des
  discours (st?les, plaques, cartels, murs, ?crans, objets de m?moire,
  objets du quotidien, documents audio-visuels...) constitutifs
  d'environnements extralinguistiques sp?cifiques et dans quels buts ?

- Comment traiter l'h?t?rog?n?it? des donn?es orales, scripturales,
  iconiques, picturales, audiovisuelles, gestuelles ?

- Comment s'assurer de la p?rennit? des donn?es (exemple : forums de
  discussion de l'internet, textes d'une exposition temporaire) ?

- Comment prendre en compte leur plasticit? et leur mutabilit?, par
  exemple : ajout de plaques fun?raires anniversaires, ?rosion de st?les
  fun?raires, ?volution d'une page internet (Dervin et Paveau 2012) ?

*--Axe 3 :**Langue, texte, discours *:

- Sur le plan linguistique, comment analyser des ?nonc?s
  d?contextualis?s (phrases sans textes, aphorismes, ?pitaphes,
  commentaires sur internet ou dans des livres d'or...) en lien avec un
  discours source contextualis? (commentaires sur une page internet en
  r?action ? un article par exemple), ou extraits de ce dernier (?
  petite phrase ? extraite d'un discours politique par exemple) ?
  Comment faire le lien entre ces ?nonc?s d?tach?s et leur(s)
  contexte(s) premier(s) ?

Nowadays, doctoral students work on multimodal and diverse corpora.
These can be book- or web-based, as well as multimodal (newspaper
websites, forums...), multilingual as well as multisemiotic, as would a
collection of artifacts or art pieces contextualizing discourses around
art shows; audiovisual recordings in public spaces (with paraverbal,
behavioral perspectives as well); even funeral artifacts laid on
tombstones, completing the discourse of the epitaph.

Facing these heterogeneous, hybrid corpora, linguistics and discourse
analysis do not always supply a relevant analysis framework. The notion
of hybridity in discourse is questioned in several publications (Gambier
& Suomela-Salmi, 2011). Moreover, discourse and representations embedded
in discourse contribute to a semiotization of space (Turpin 2012).
However, the analysis of hybrid corpora, seen as an array of linguistic
data in context---located in a signifying environment---constitute as
many unique and new issues in our field(s).

Although our "primary" interest is discourse, our goal is to exploit it
with regards to its polysemiotic context, using resources offered by
other fields such as iconology (to study newspaper cartoons) or
semiology. This conference aims at giving theoretical frameworks for a
discursivist analysis of corpora in context. The papers will aim at
clearly define reflexive, methodological or epistemological questions
and biases when it comes to analyze heterogeneous data. It aims at
bringing together PhD Students and young researchers in
linguistics---particularly discursivists---from all French or foreign
universities.

*Talks will be based on the following areas, which could be combined: *

*Area 1 --- Context: *

- How to account for environmental data in discourse analysis which does
  not oppose linguistic and non-linguistic environments anymore, and
  brings them together?

- What is the position of researchers working on "sensitive" data? (Lee:
  1993, Lee-Trewek:2000; Vulbeau:2007)

*Area 2--- Hybrid, polysemiotic corpora: *

- How to deal with the heterogeneity of text supports and discourses
  (tombstones, walls, screens, souvenirs, everyday objects, audiovisual
  documents...), which represent specific, extralinguistic environments?
  To which avail? Which methodological, epistemological tools to use?

- How to deal with the heterogeneity of speech-, image-, text-,
  behavioral-based corpora?

- How to secure the conservation of corpora (internet forums, texts from 
  a temporary exhibit)?

- How to account for their plasticity and mutability---adding
  anniversary memorial stones, erosion of tombstones, evolution of
  webpages (Dervin & Paveau: 2012)?

*Area 3--- Language, text, discourse: *

- On the linguistic area, how to analyze decontextualized
  utterances---textless sentences, aphorisms, epitaphs, comments in a
  guest book...---or utterances linked to a contextualized original
  discourse---comments to an article online---or various extracts, like
  notable sentences in a political discourse? How to link
  decontextualized utterances and their original context?

*Submissions*:

Talks will be delivered primarily in French, although talks in English
will be accepted.

Contributions will comprise plenary conferences, workshop sessions,
round tables and posters (guidelines here:
http://discdoct.hypotheses.org/406).

Talks will last for 20 minutes, with a 10-minute discussion time.
Propositions will be sent to corpusetcontextes at gmail.com . Proposals (no
longer than 2500 characters, references included) will be sent in an
anonymous .doc or .docx format along with a short biographical note
(name(s), surname(s) of author(s), university...) in the body of the
email. The subject of this email will have to contain the name of the
author(s) as well as the title of the contribution.

Le laboratoire d?informatique de l?universit? Fran?ois-Rabelais de Tours
recrute un ing?nieur en TAL pour un CDD de 3 mois dans le cadre du
projet Ortolang .

Le LI travaille depuis plusieurs ann?es sur un syst?me de reconnaissance
d?entit?s nomm?es, CasEn , qui consiste en des cascades de graphes
Unitex. La derni?re version de CasEn vient d??tre class?e premi?re sur
la t?che REN de l??valuation ETAPE sur le fran?ais oral.

Le travail consiste en une r?vision de CasEN pour traiter tous les
textes qui sont et vont ?tre d?pos? sur la plateforme Ortolang. Il
s?agira donc de lancer CasEn sur des textes de styles diff?rents, de
v?rifier les r?sultats et d?am?liorer la couverture du syst?me. En fin
de projet, il faudra proposer un script facilement utilisable par les
d?posants de ressources sur Ortolang.

Appel ? communications pour un num?ro sp?cial de

la Revue des Nouvelles Technologies de l'Information

FOUILLE DE DONNEES et HUMANITES NUMERIQUES

Date limite de soumission : 30 septembre 2013

Objectifs :
===========

Le but de ce num?ro sp?cial est de regrouper des articles de chercheurs
acad?miques et industriels autour de la th?matique de l?extraction de
connaissances en interface avec les humanit?s num?riques. Il s'agit ? la
fois de travaux de recherche aboutis donnant une id?e des avanc?es
actuelles mais ?galement de travaux de recherche en cours li?s au
traitement informatique des donn?es ?tudi?es par les disciplines SHS
(sciences de l?homme et de la soci?t?). Si la rencontre de
l?informatique et des SHS n?est pas nouvelle, le contexte actuel li? au
faible co?t du mat?riel et de la profusion des donn?es lui donne une
autre dimension. Les articles de synth?se sont ?galement les bienvenus.

Soumission et dates importantes :
=================================

Les articles sont r?dig?s en Fran?ais (exceptionnellement en Anglais
pour les non-francophones) en utilisant le style de la revue RNTI avec
une pr?f?rence forte pour LaTeX (formats de r?daction .doc et .rtf
accept?s). Ils sont soumis au format PDF. Les textes devront contenir
entre 3000 et 8000 mots.

Les dates importantes sont les suivantes :

R?ception des articles : 30 septembre 2013

Notification aux auteurs : 14 novembre 2013

Versions finales : 4 d?cembre 2013

Parution : janvier 2014

Th?matique :
============

Nous sommes spectateurs et acteurs d?un tournant soci?tal qui est admis
aujourd?hui, c?est le ?tournant du num?rique? transformant
l?environnement politique, ?conomique et culturel contemporain.
L?implication de cette contribution du num?rique ? nos soci?t?s tend ?
fabriquer des espaces de donn?es de plus en plus importants n?cessitant
? cet endroit des traitements sp?cifiques. Les disciplines SHS qui
placent l?homme au coeur des questionnements ont jusque l? peu profit?
des m?thodes traitant des ensembles de donn?es num?riques et du
potentiel de transformation de ce tournant. Quelles nouvelles questions
peuvent se poser sur de nouvelles donn?es, selon quels modes
d?archivage, avec quels algorithmes de recherche d?information utile ?
dans une botte de documents ? ? Pour ne citer que deux exemples, les
humanit?s num?riques s?invitent d?j? en sociologie, qui aborde la
d?mocratie d?opinion dans les r?seaux sociaux, et en histoire o? la
lecture num?rique change l?acc?s ? la mat?rialit? du pass?.
Dans ce num?ro sp?cial de RNTI ?Extraction de Connaissances et Humanit?s
Num?riques?, nous cherchons des travaux qui d?crivent des d?fis et des
d?bats sur des questions ?mergeantes du monde num?rique naissant, aussi
bien que des travaux qui montrent avec ses m?thodes et ses conclusions
les types de m?thodologie qui peuvent ?tre le mieux mobilis?s, ou
doivent exclusivement ?tre mobilis?s, dans son sillage. Les
contributions ne doivent pas se limiter ? la d?monstration des avantages
et limites d?acc?s ? certaines bases de donn?es mais ?voquer comment de
nouvelles formes d?informations produisent de nouvelles fa?ons de penser
aussi bien du point de vue de l?extraction des connaissances que des
disciplines de SHS.
Nous invitons les contributeurs ? consid?rer le large spectre des
m?thodes et des usages dans des projets ?mergeants et existants,
incluant l?extraction des connaissances, l?archivage distribu?,
l?interop?rabilit?, la visualisation des connaissances, la linguistique
de corpus, les syst?mes d?information g?ographiques... Les donn?es
seront issues du monde des sciences de l?homme et de la soci?t? (SHS) :
culturelles, litt?raires, philosophiques, ?conomiques, psychologiques,
sociologiques, d?opinions, ethnologiques, d?mographiques, g?ographiques,
historiques, musicologiques, arch?ologiques, architecturales,
juridiques, th?ologiques...

Mots-cl?s :
===========

Algorithmes d?extraction d?information,
Algorithmes de r?seaux sociaux,
Algorithmes pour le traitement des donn?es,
Crit?res et protocole d??valuation des approches,
Donn?es SHS,
Ecologie des donn?es,

L'?quipe TALEP du Laboratoire d'Informatique Fondamentale de Marseille
et, plus largement, l'ensemble du laboratoire, ont la grande douleur de
vous faire part du d?c?s de Paul Sabatier survenue le 18 ao?t.

Paul a consacr? toute sa carri?re au traitement automatique de la
langue.  Il ?tait directeur de recherche au CNRS, il fut ? l'origine de
l'?quipe TALEP et directeur du laboratoire.

SOUMISSION : avant le 31 ao?t 2013 ? Jusqu?au 16 septembre 2013

Unitex est une plate-forme open-source d?analyse de texte largement
utilis?e en recherche, dans l?enseignement et l?industrie
(http://www-igm.univ-mlv.fr/~unitex/). Le syst?me GramLab ?tend Unitex
pour offrir aux ?quipes des outils facilitant le travail collaboratif
(partage de ressources, suivi de versions, etc.). Ces outils reposent
sur des technologies de type ? automates ? ?tats finis ? et incorporent
des ressources linguistiques ? large couverture, disponibles dans de
nombreuses langues.

Le Workshop Unitex/GramLab est un forum dont l?ambition est de
rassembler les utilisateurs acad?miques et industriels de ces logiciels
ainsi que tous les chercheurs et d?veloppeurs qui participent au
d?veloppement de cette plate-forme open-source et de ses
ressources. L?objectif principal de cet ?v?nement est de favoriser le
partage d?exp?rience et les contacts entre utilisateurs et

TITRE :
M?thodes d?analyse s?mantique statistique pour l?extraction de
connaissances ? partir de corpus semi-annot?s

MOTS CLEFS : 
Analyse s?mantique, Apprentissage actif, Interaction Homme-Machine, Dialogue naturel

CONTEXTE :
Le sujet de post-doctorat se rapporte ? la probl?matique de l?analyse
s?mantique dans les syst?mes dialogue en g?n?ral. L?analyse s?mantique
consiste ? transformer un ?nonc? dans une interpr?tation (cat?gorie
s?mantique) pour permettre au syst?me de dialogue de poursuivre ses
calculs. L?analyseur s?mantique de Disserto s?appuie sur une approche ?
base de r?gles. Le traitement s?effectue en deux ?tapes : ?tiqueter les
mots en ? tags ?, puis appliquer les r?gles s?mantiques appropri?es aux
tags, de telle mani?re qu?une combinaison ou association donn?e de tags
fournisse une interpr?tation correcte. Ce principe d?analyse s?mantique
? base de r?gles d??tiquetage et d?association peut ?tre utilis? dans
n?importe quelle langue. 

Cependant, cette m?thode est manuelle et n?cessite l?intervention d?un
d?veloppeur (knowledge engineer). Ce dernier va analyser un corpus de
phrases issues d?interactions de diff?rents utilisateurs avec le service
de dialogue, afin d??laborer les r?gles d?analyse s?mantiques les plus
pertinentes. Les phrases contenues dans ce type de corpus peuvent ?tre :

- non annot?es (par exemple lorsqu?elles sont issues des logs d?un
  service en exploitation)

- annot?es manuellement par un op?rateur : par exemple dans le cas de
  service mettant en ?uvre des fonctions de magicien d?Oz sur la
  reconnaissance vocale (on parle alors de Reconnaissance Vocal Assist?e
  par Op?rateur) ou sur l?analyse s?mantique (illustr?e dans
  l?application DissertOz).


Le r?le du post-doctorant sera de d?velopper de nouveaux algorithmes et
de fournir les outils associ?s qui permettent de faciliter et
d?optimiser le travail du d?veloppeur lors de l??laboration des r?gles
d?analyse s?mantique de Disserto. 

Les travaux du post-doctorant seront men?s sur 2 champs : 

- la s?lection automatique des phrases les plus pertinentes ? prendre en
  compte pour la d?finition des nouvelles r?gles d?analyse s?mantique:
  phrases avec de nouveaux mots, tags, r?gles ou interpr?tations.

- l??tude des ?nonc?s conduisant ? une interpr?tation erron?e de
  l?analyseur de mani?re ? identifier des termes communs, ? donner des
  explications de l?erreur et ? d?tecter les ?nonc?s ? poubelle ? ?
  rejeter (trash).

Ce sujet est la suite d?un travail accompli par l?universit? de Pozna?
en 2011 et 2012 dans le cadre d?un contrat de recherche externe sous la
direction d?Orange.

TACHES :
Prendre en main les algorithmes d?velopp?s par l?universit? de Pozna? et
les am?liorer :

- Calcul de score de confiance de la classification de l?analyseur
  s?mantique pour un ?nonc? donn?

- Identification de r?gles d?association liant les formes des ?nonc?s
  aux erreurs de classification de l?analyseur s?mantique

- D?tection des ?nonc?s poubelle

Sur la base de corpus non-annot?s de taille gigantesque (plusieurs
millions d??nonc?s) et de corpus annot?s de taille r?duite (plusieurs
milliers d??nonc?s), d?finir un algorithme d?apprentissage actif
permettant :

- de rep?rer les ? trous ? d?annotation, c'est-?-dire les formes
  d??nonc?s fr?quentes du corpus non-annot?s qui ne sont pas, ou peu,
  repr?sent? dans le corpus annot?

- de pr?dire les ?nonc?s les plus pertinents pour ?tre annot?s, sur la
  base du calcul de score de confiance en l?analyseur s?mantique

- de s?lectionner l?ensemble optimal de n ?nonc?s ? annoter, en ?vitant
  les redondances et en contr?lant que les informations apport?es par
  ces annotations se compl?tent.

R?diger un rapport d??tude sur les m?thodes et algorithmes d?velopp?s
lors de cette ?tude et sur leur ?valuation.

Annonce de s?minaire :

Le 24 Septembre, nous recevrons Nathalie Guin du LIRIS (Univ. Claude
Berbard Lyon). Elle nous pr?sentera son travail de recherche sur
l'explicitation de connaissances pour la personnalisation des
Environnements Informatiques pour l?Apprentissage Humain (EIAH).  Le
s?minaire aura lieu ? 14h au LIMSI (Orsay) en salle de conf?rences
(b?timent 508).

*Titre* : Explicitation de connaissances pour la personnalisation des EIAH

*R?sum?* : Les Environnements Informatiques pour l?Apprentissage Humain
(EIAH) sont des outils destin?s ? favoriser l?apprentissage, dans des
contextes vari?s, par exemple en classe avec un enseignant, ou bien ?
distance dans un contexte d?apprentissage ouvert et massif comme dans
les MOOCs. Quel que soit le contexte, l?un des enjeux majeurs de ces
environnements est l?individualisation de l?enseignement : permettre ?
l?apprenant d?apprendre ? son rythme, avec un contenu p?dagogique adapt?
? ses besoins. Nous explorerons dans cet expos? les diff?rentes
questions de recherches soulev?es par la conception d?EIAH proposant des
activit?s adapt?es ? chaque apprenant : comment mod?liser l?apprenant en
analysant ses interactions avec le syst?me, comment utiliser une
strat?gie de personnalisation, comment g?n?rer des activit?s r?pondant ?
cette strat?gie. Nous pr?senterons en particulier les m?thodes que nous
utilisons pour permettre ? des utilisateurs non informaticiens tels que
des enseignants d?expliciter les connaissances n?cessaires ? de tels
syst?mes, et nous ouvrirons une discussion sur d?autres mani?re
d?acqu?rir ces connaissances.

EACL 2014 STUDENT RESEARCH WORKSHOP
The 14th Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for
Computational Linguistics
Gothenburg, Sweden
26-30 April 2014
http://eacl2014.org/

CALL FOR PAPERS
** Submission deadline: Friday, 22 November 2013; 11:59pm CET ** 


I. General Invitation for Submissions
-------------------------------------

EACL 2014 continues the tradition of providing a forum for student
researchers who are investigating various areas related to Computational
Linguistics and Natural Language Processing. The workshop provides an
excellent opportunity for student participants to present their work and
receive valuable feedback from the international research community as
well as from selected panelists - experienced researchers who will
prepare in-depth comments and questions in advance of the
presentation. The workshop's goal is to aid students at multiple stages
of their education: from those in the final stages of undergraduate
training to those active with graduate thesis research.

We invite papers in two separate categories:

1. Thesis/Research Proposals: This category is appropriate for students
   who wish to get feedback on the progress of their thesis work and
   broader ideas from the field in order to identify the most promising
   directions for the remaining thesis work.

2. Research Papers: Most appropriate for students who are new to
   academic conferences. Papers in this category can describe completed
   original work or work in progress with preliminary results.

Topics relevant to the workshop aim to cover all aspects of
Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing, including,
but not limited to (in alphabetical order):

- Cognitive modeling of language processing and psycholinguistics 
- Dialogue and interactive systems 
- Discourse, coreference and pragmatics 
- Evaluation methods 
- Information retrieval
- Language resources
- Lexical semantics and ontologies 
- Machine translation: methods, applications and evaluation 
- Multilinguality in NLP 
- NLP applications 
- NLP and creativity 
- NLP for low-resource languages
- NLP for the Web and social media
- Question answering 
- Semantics 
- Sentiment analysis, opinion mining and text classification 
- Spoken language processing 
- Statistical and Machine Learning methods in NLP 
- Summarization and generation 
- Syntax and parsing 
- Tagging and chunking
- Text mining and information extraction 
- Word segmentation   

Subject to the availability of established researcher volunteers, each
accepted paper will be assigned a mentor, an experienced researcher who
will provide feedback on the work to the student at the
conference. Details on this service will be provided in the acceptance
notification.


II. Submission guidelines
-------------------------

A) Submission requirements

1. Thesis/Research Proposals may contain previously published work and
   must include specific research directions. They may also be in the
   style of a position paper that surveys and critiques existing
   literature, but must suggest future research directions. Proposals
   may only have one author, who must be a student.

2. Research Papers must describe original completed work or work in
   progress. Since the main purpose of presenting at the workshop is to
   exchange ideas with other researchers and to receive helpful feedback
   for further development of the work, papers should clearly indicate
   directions for future research wherever appropriate. The first author
   of multi-author papers must be a student, but additional co-authors
   need not be students. Research Papers are eligible for this workshop
   only if they have not been presented at any other meeting with
   publicly available published proceedings. Students who have already
   presented at a past ACL/EACL/NAACL Student Research Workshop may not
   submit to this track as a first author (though they may still be a
   co-author, or the first author of a Thesis/Research Proposal). These
   students are instead encouraged to submit their work to the main
   conference or to the Thesis Proposal track. During submission,
   students must clearly indicate whether a paper has been submitted to
   another conference or workshop. Double submissions to the EACL main
   conference and the Student Research Workshop are not allowed. One
   student can only submit one paper to the Research Papers track as the
   first author.

B) Submission procedure

Both paper and proposal submissions to the EACL 2014 Student Research
Workshop should follow the standard two-column format of the EACL 2014
proceedings and they must be submitted as a PDF file. Authors are
strongly recommended to use the style files from the conference web
site. The style files are available here:

- http://www.eacl2014.org/files/eacl-2014-styles.zip

All submissions may consist of up to nine (9) pages of content only. Any
number of additional pages containing references is allowed.

The reviewing process will be double-blind; therefore, please ensure
that the paper does not include the authors' names and
affiliations. Furthermore, self-references that reveal the author's
identity, e.g., "We previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...", should be
avoided. Instead, use citations such as "Smith previously showed (Smith,
1991) ...". Further guidelines are provided in the template style files.
References to your own work in thesis proposals should also be
anonymized. You may for example write it as "in X (2000) we showed",
etc. and do not add your papers in the reference list. Authors should
not use other anonymous citations in both research papers and thesis
proposals, and should not include any acknowledgments. Papers that do
not conform to these requirements will be rejected without review.

The deadline for submission is 11:59pm CET on Friday, 22 November
2013. Submission will be electronic using the paper submission web page:

- https://www.softconf.com/eacl2014/srw/

Papers will be presented orally or as posters during the main EACL
conference as determined by the program committee. Decisions on
presentation format will be based on the nature rather than the quality
of the work. There will be no distinction in the proceedings between
long papers presented orally and as posters.

C) Multiple-submission policy

Papers that have been or will be submitted to other meetings or
publications must indicate this at submission time. Authors of papers
accepted for presentation at EACL SRW 2014 must notify the program
chairs whether the paper will be presented. All accepted papers must be
presented at the workshop in order for them to appear in the
proceedings. We will not accept for publication or presentation papers
that overlap significantly in content or results with papers that will
be (or have been) published elsewhere. Double submissions to the EACL
main conference and the Student Research Workshop are not allowed, and
the authors must ensure that these submissions do not overlap
significantly (> 50%) with each other in content or results.

D) Reviewing procedure

The reviewing of the papers will be double-blind. Reviewing will be
managed by the Student Workshop Co-Chairs and a team of reviewers. Each
submission will be matched with a mixed panel of student and senior
researchers for review. The final acceptance decision will be based on
the results of the review.


III. Important dates
--------------------

- Submission deadline: 22 November 2013
- Notification of acceptance: 13 January 2014
- Camera-ready submission deadline: 17 February 2014
- Conference dates: 26-30 April 2014 

(The workshop will be held during the main conference, in a mode similar
to the conference's regular sessions. The exact format will be decided
by the workshop co-chairs and conference chairs.)

                          October 28-30th 2013

10th International Conference on Terminology and Artificial Intelligence

Paris 13 University, Paris Sorbonne cit? - Villetaneuse (close to
Paris), France
      ***********************************************************

** Overview **

TIA 2013 will be the 10th in a series of successful events which, for
the most part, initially took place in the francophone world. Over a
period of almost 20 years ? the first conference was held in 1995 ? TIA
has increasingly attracted the attention of many researchers and
practitioners all over the world, and its work has become truly
international.

The aim of TIA 2013 is to provide an overview of the new ways in which
multilingual terminology is present in an ever-increasing networked
society, and to pay special attention both to the methods applied in the
conceptualization of domain knowledge and to the applications and tools
that will meet the requirements of e-society. In this way, terminology,
linguistics and knowledge engineering provide the basis on which many
other disciplines develop their applications such as domain ontologies,
natural language processing tools, multilingual knowledge-based tools
and web-based linguistic applications. New approaches to the
standardization and to the reuse and integration of different tools
designed to facilitate work in institutions, companies and society in
general will be welcome.

The TIA 2013 Conference aims to promote interdisciplinary research
focusing on the intersection of different disciplines that deal with
terminological aspects and knowledge engineering resources. Papers may
address both theoretical questions and methodological aspects on these
issues, as well as interdisciplinary approaches developed to facilitate
convergence and co-operation in terminological aspects of importance to
society.

** Practical information **

The conference will held from October 28th to October 29th, workshops on
October 30th.

Workshop on Optimizing understanding in multilingual hospital encounters

October 20th, 2013 - University of Paris 13, Paris (F)

http://flores.lipn.univ-paris13.fr/tia2013/Workshops_hospital.html

In conjunction with the International Conference on Terminology and
Artificial Intelligence TIA 2013

*****************************************************
dead-line for paper submission: September 10th, 2013
*****************************************************

In this workshop we will bring together participants who have solutions
for one or more of the following problems: How can mutual understanding
be optimized with the help of technology in hospitals where both
patients and professionals have varying language skills, cultural
backgrounds and cognitive capacities? Can domain ontologies, natural
language processing tools, multilingual knowledge-based tools,
multilingual terminology resources and other semantic technologies be
combined in order to enhance the quality of mutual understanding between
humans?

Multi-language web apps already exist that make it easier for different
health professionals to improve communication through the use of
terminology and phrases like standard questions and explanations in
multiple languages. We solicit ideas on how technology can optimize the
usability of this type of resource and of other types of resources and
on how new technologies can reuse all types of existing terminological
resources.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers from several
domains, and practitioners from industry, academia and health policy
making bodies to report on recent developments, achievements, technology
trends and research results on projects concerning the optimization of
understanding in multilingual hospital encounters and the possibilities
of applying web-based technologies to this end.


What follows is a non-exhaustive list of topics of interest for this
workshop.

- One of the topics is how cloud-based technology can optimize
  understanding in caretaker - caregiver communication in a variety of
  hospital settings where misunderstanding might be lurking because of
  incompatible language skills, cultural differences, terminology,
  etc. We welcome contributions in the field of current semantic
  web-based technologies, techniques and tools with the aim of reusing
  distributed data on the web and exploring web- based health
  applications.

- We also solicit examples of service-oriented collective intelligence
  and language resource interoperability. How can existing hospital
  infrastructures of several kinds be designed for caregivers and for
  caretakers as end users?

- A clinical pathway is a decision-tree based on clinical assessment
  that guides the triage, history taking and further examination of a
  patient with a particular clinical problem. We solicit examples of
  clinical pathways for identifying and treating specific disorders at
  triage and history taking in hospital emergency wards where caretakers
  and patients do not speak the same language, in which the linguistic
  and cultural background of a patient are taken into consideration.

- General-purpose machine translation tools are not reliable for the
  translation of medical records. We solicit examples of the use of
  machine translation tools (trained to target specific domains in
  medicine?) to enhance understanding between caregivers and caretakers
  in well-defined contexts.

We invite you to send a short paper (4 pages, presentation time 15
minutes)

*Synergies in Language Acquisition**
**
**Mark Johnson**
**Macquarie University**
**
**noon, 10th September**, ENS*

  ENS, Colloquium de L'institut d'Etude de la Cognition
  12h ? 13h30,
  salle Langevin, 29 rue d'Ulm, 75005 Paris
  http://www.cognition.ens.fr/ColloquiumIEC.html

Each human language contains an unbounded number of different sentences.
How can something so large and complex possibly be learnt?  Over the
past two decades we've learned how to define probability distributions
over grammars and the linguistic structures they generate, making it
possible to define statistical models that learn regularities of complex
linguistic structures. Bayesian approaches are particularly attractive
because they can exploit "prior" (e.g., innate) knowledge as well as
learn statistical generalizations from the input.  Here we use
computational models to investigate "synergies" in language acquisition,
where a "joint model" is capable of solving "chicken-and-egg" problems
that are challenging for conventional "staged learning" models.

*Language acquisition as statistical inference**
**
**Mark Johnson**
**Macquarie University**
**
**noon, 12th September, LingLunch*

  Linglunch Paris Diderot
  Thursday, 12th septembre 2013
  12h-13h, salle 103 
  b?timent Olympe de Gouges
  (8) rue Albert Einstein, 75013
  http://www.linguist.univ-paris-diderot.fr/linglunch.html

This talk argues that language acquisition -- in particular, syntactic
parameter setting -- is profitably viewed as a statistical inference
problem.  I discuss some issues associated with statistical inference
that linguists might be concerned about, including the possibility of
"Zombie" parameter settings.  The bulk of the talk focuses on estimating
parameters in a Stabler-style Minimalist Grammar framework.  Building on
recent results of Hunter and Dyer (2013), we show how estimating weights
associated with lexical entries -- including the empty functional
categories that control parametric syntactic variation -- can be reduced
to estimating weights in what appears to be a new grammar formalism
called "feature-weighted context-free grammars", which is a MaxEnt
generalisation of the "tied context-free grammars" of Headden et al
(2009).  Importantly, the partition function and its derivatives of a
feature-weighted context-free grammar can be calculated using a
generalisation inspired by the Inside-Outside algorithm of the
algorithms for calculating partition functions in Nederhof and Satta
(2009).  We show how this can be used to learn lexical entries and verb
movement and XP movement parameters in three toy corpora.


*
*
*Grammars and Topic Models**
**
**Mark Johnson**
**Macquarie University**
**
**11am, 20th September, Alpage Group*

  S?minaire ALPAGE
  Friday, 20th september, 11h-12h30
  salle 127
  b?timent Olympe de Gouges
  (8) rue Albert Einstein, 75013
  https://www.rocq.inria.fr/alpage-wiki/tiki-index.php?page=seminaire

Context-free grammars have been a cornerstone of theoretical computer
science and computational linguistics since their inception over half a
century ago.  Topic models are a newer development in machine learning
that play an important role in document analysis and information
retrieval.  It turns out there is a surprising connection between the
two that suggests novel ways of extending both grammars and topic
models.  After explaining this connection, I go on to describe
extensions which identify topical multiword collocations and
automatically learn the internal structure of named-entity phrases.
These new models have applications in text data mining and information
retrieval.

C'est avec une grande tristesse que nous avons appris le d?c?s
accidentel de Jean V?ronis le dimanche 8 septembre 2013.

Quand il a ?t? ?lu pr?sident de l'ATALA en 2000, Jean V?ronis avait d?j?
acquis une solide r?putation internationale, gr?ce ? ses travaux sur les
ressources lexicales multilingues, dans le cadre du projet MULTEX et son
implication dans la campagne d??valuation ROMANSEVAL.  Tr?s vite, Jean a
su prendre des initiatives importantes pour l'ATALA, comme, par exemple,
celle de transformer la revue Traitement Automatique des Langues, alors
publi?e par Herm?s, en une revue ?lectronique diffus?e de fa?on libre et
gratuite.  Cette initiative montre l'importance toute particuli?re qu'il
accordait ? la libre diffusion du savoir via Internet. C'est dans ce
m?me ?tat d'esprit qu'il a cr?? le blog AixTAL, qui l'a rendu c?l?bre en
dehors du monde acad?mique. Ce blog a permis de vulgariser les recherche
men?es en Traitement Automatique des Langues, par exemple en ?tudiant
les mots employ?s par les hommes politiques.  L'ATALA peut
s'enorgueillir d'avoir eu un pr?sident qui a eu ? c?ur de faire
comprendre au grand public quel ?tait l'objet des recherches men?es par
ses membres. Jean V?ronis ?tait un homme de convictions et
d?engagements. Avec sa disparition, le monde du TAL perd un de ses
grands porte-parole.

InMemoriamAixTAL (http://inmemoriamaixtal.blog4ever.com/) est un blog
qui a ?t? cr?? par les membres de l'ATALA (Association pour le
Traitement Automatique des Langues) pour honorer

Nous souhaitons par l'interm?diaire de ce blog, collecter les
t?moignages de ceux qui l'on connu, rencontr? ou qui ont collabor? avec
lui, que ce soit en personne ou par le biais d'Internet, afin d'honorer
sa m?moire.  Une fois rassembl?s, ces t?moignages seront transmis ? sa
famille.

This is the Call for Participation in the second scanned documents
processing evaluation campaign MAURDOR 2013. You can find the detailed
information below (French and English versions).

### French version ###

*** Campagne d??valuation MAURDOR : nouvelle ?dition ***

Le traitement automatique de documents num?ris?s est en plein essor. Les
campagnes MAURDOR visent ? ?valuer des syst?mes de traitement
automatique de documents ?crits. Elles cherchent ? quantifier et
qualifier les capacit?s des syst?mes ? extraire des informations
pertinentes ? partir d?images issues de la num?risation de documents
?crits.

Apr?s le succ?s de la premi?re campagne MAURDOR qui s?est d?roul?e au
printemps 2013, le Laboratoire National de m?trologie et d?Essais (LNE)
et CASSIDIAN coordonnent une seconde ?dition. Ils proposent un cadre
commun de t?ches afin de rendre compte des performances actuelles des
syst?mes de traitement automatique de documents num?riques.

Pour remplir cet objectif, le LNE fournira aux participants les ?l?ments
suivants :

- Des donn?es coh?rentes de d?veloppements et de test, correspondant aux
  domaines applicatifs concern?s.

- Des outils de m?triques automatiques de la performance des syst?mes.

- Un protocole d??valuation commun applicable ? chacune des ?tapes de
  traitement ainsi qu?? une chaine compl?te de traitement automatique de
  documents ?crits.

Le plan d??valuation de la campagne est accessible sur
www.maurdor-campaign.org

Un atelier sera organis? ? la fin de chaque campagne pour rendre compte
des r?sultats obtenus et confronter les approches des diff?rents
participants.

** Un corpus de documents h?t?rog?nes **

Une des particularit?s de l??valuation MAURDOR est de s?appuyer sur un
corpus de documents tr?s h?t?rog?nes.

Le corpus d?apprentissage MAURDOR 2 comportera au total 7 000 documents
en anglais, fran?ais et arabe correspondant aux cat?gories suivantes

- Des formulaires (environ 12% du corpus) vierges ou compl?t?s

- Des documents commerciaux (environ 40% du corpus) imprim?s mais
  ?galement comment?s .manuellement

- Des correspondances priv?es manuscrites (environ 25% du corpus)
  pouvant parfois contenir des ent?tes imprim?es

- Des correspondances commerciales (environ 20% du corpus) imprim?es
  mais ?galement comment?es manuellement

- D?autres documents comme des articles de journaux ou des
  plans?(environ 3% du corpus)

Les syst?mes seront ?valu?s sur un corpus de 1 000 documents dont la
r?partition par cat?gorie respectera les m?mes proportions que celles du
corpus d?apprentissage.

** T?ches ?valu?es **

MAURDOR repose sur la d?finition d?une cha?ne de traitement compl?te
dans laquelle cinq modules distincts sont mis en ?uvre. Chaque module
remplit une fonction particuli?re et contribue au traitement complet du
document. Ce sont ces cinq modules qui seront ?valu?s au cours de la
campagne. Les modules sont les suivants :

- Module n?1 : Typage des zones d?un document permettant de segmenter
  les images de documents en zones distinctes

- Module n?2 : Typage de la nature de l??criture (manuscrite,
  dactylographi?e)

- Module n?3 : Identification de la langue (anglais, arabe, fran?ais ou
  autre)

- Module n?4 : Reconnaissance de l??criture dactylographi?e et
  manuscrite (OCR).

- Module n?5: Extraction de la structure du document.

Une ?valuation applicative sera ?galement effectu?e. Elle consistera ?
?valuer la compl?tude et la pr?cision de la reconnaissance par rapport ?
la pr?sence de mots cl?s dans les documents.

** Comment participer ? **

Cette campagne est ouverte ? toutes les personnes, entreprises ou
institutions qui souhaiteraient ?valuer leur approche en mati?re de
traitement automatique de documents num?riques.

Tous les participants devront pr?senter leur(s) syst?me(s) lors de
l?atelier et ?tre en capacit? d?expliquer ses fondements. L?atelier est
r?serv? aux participants ? la campagne et aux agences ayant financ? le
projet.

Les modules ?tant ind?pendant, les participants peuvent s?inscrire pour
?valuer une cha?ne compl?te (?valuation applicative) ou des modules de
leur choix. L?inscription se fait sur le site www.maurdor-campaign.org

### English version ###

*** MAURDOR-campaigns: Scanned documents processing evaluations ***

** Presentation **

Scanned documents processing is an important issue for information
retrieval. The MAURDOR campaigns aim at assessing the progress of
automatic systems in this area. The goal is to evaluate the ability of
the systems to extract relevant information in scanned documents.

After the success of the first campaign that took place in spring 2013,
the Laboratoire national de m?trologie et d?essais (LNE) and CASSIDIAN,
an EADS company, will conduct a new MAURDOR evaluation campaign in order
to support research in Scanned documents processing and help advancing
the state of the art in Optical Characters Recognition technologies.

The LNE and CASSIDIAN provide the following to participants:

- Consistent data for training, development and test sets.

- Automatic scoring tools.

- Common rules needed to assess different steps essential for scanned
  documents processing.

A workshop will be organized at the end of the campaign to account for
the results and compare the approaches of various participants. The
evaluation plan is available at www.maurdor-campaign.org

** A heterogeneous database **

The MAURDOR evaluations are based on a very heterogeneous database. The
training set is multilingual (English, French, And Arabic) and consists
of 7,000 different documents corresponding to the following classes:

- Blank forms and completed forms (around 12% of the database)

- Typewritten commercial documents with sometimes several manual
  annotations (around 40% of the database)

- Handwritten personal letters with sometimes typewritten headers
  (around 25% of the database)

- Commercial letters such as purchase orders or bills (around 20% of the
  database)

- Other documents like newspapers articles or maps?(around 3% of the
  database).

The test set contains 1,000 documents. The proportion of documents
belonging to different categories is the same as for the training data

** Tasks **

MAURDOR is based on a complete processing chain in which five separate
modules are implemented. Each module performs a particular function
contributing to the complete processing of a scanned document. The
following five modules are independently assessed during the campaign:

- Task 1: Segmentation and typing areas (table, text, image?)

- Task 2: Type writing characterization (handwritten or typewritten
  characters)

- Task 3: Language identification

- Task 4: Optical Characters Recognition

- Task 5: Establishing reading order and relations between areas

Participants can submit systems for individual tasks of their choice.

An evaluation will also be performed for an operational application as
an end-to-end processing chain. It is evaluated in a keyword spotting
scenario.

** How to participate? ** 

This evaluation is intended to be of interest of all researchers working
on the problem of scanned documents processing. The only requirement is
the participation in the closing workshop. All the participants must
attend the evaluation workshop and be prepared to discuss their
system(s), their results in detail. To participate it is sufficient to
fill out the registration form available at www.maurdor-campaign.org

**********************************************************

* **Mark Johnson** (Macquarie University**)
***
*Grammars and Topic Models**
**
*Context-free grammars have been a cornerstone of theoretical computer
science and computational linguistics since their inception over half a
century ago.  Topic models are a newer development in machine learning
that play an important role in document analysis and information
retrieval.  It turns out there is a surprising connection between the
two that suggests novel ways of extending both grammars and topic
models.  After explaining this connection, I go on to describe
extensions which identify topical multiword collocations and
automatically learn the internal structure of named-entity
phrases. These new models have applications in text data mining and
information retrieval.

TROISI?ME ET DERNIER APPEL ?  PROPOSITIONS

COLLOQUE INTERNATIONAL

? L?ARTICULATION DU LEXIQUE, DE LA GRAMMAIRE ET DU DISCOURS :
MARQUEURS GRAMMATICAUX ET MARQUEURS DISCURSIFS

DATE LIMITE DE SOUMISSION : 30 SEPTEMBRE 2013
DATES

Vendredi 4 avril et samedi 5 avril 2014

LIEU

Universit? Paris 3 ? Sorbonne nouvelle

RESPONSABLES

- Ga?tane Dostie (Professeure de linguistique ? l?Universit? de
  Sherbrooke, Qu?bec ; Catifq)

- Florence Lefeuvre (Professeure de linguistique ? l?Universit? Paris 3
  - Sorbonne Nouvelle ; Syled-Clesthia (EA2290))


CADRE DE LA RENCONTRE

Ce colloque vise ? examiner des faits lexicaux qui se situent ? la
fronti?re de la grammaire et du discours. Deux types d?emplois bien
distincts de marqueurs retiendront particuli?rement l?attention :

i) Des emplois o? les morph?mes consid?r?s agissent ? titre de marqueurs
   grammaticaux, ce qui inclut notamment (L?ard en pr?paration) :

- Des usages o? ils donnent des informations relatives ? la quantit? et
  aux rep?res spatio-temporels (c?est-?-dire des usages o? ils
  effectuent des op?rations de quantification et de rep?rage sur les
  classes majeures de mots, comme les d?terminants, les auxiliaires,
  etc.) ;

- Des usages o? ils lient des mots, des syntagmes ou des propositions ?
  l'int?rieur des ?nonc?s (pr?positions, coordonnants et subordonnants).

ii) Des emplois o? les morph?mes cibl?s ont le statut de marqueurs
    discursifs. Contrairement aux emplois qui pr?c?dent, ils ne
    participent alors pas au contenu propositionnel des ?nonc?s auxquels
    ils sont joints (ex. : l? et t?sais) ou ils constituent par
    eux-m?mes des ?nonc?s (ex. : quand m?me dans certaines de ses
    utilisations ; entre autres, Vincent 1993 ; Fernandez-Vest 1994 ;
    Hansen, 1998 ; Br?mond 2002 ; Teston-Bonnard 2006 ; Lefeuvre 2006 ;
    Dostie et Pusch 2007).


L?objectif du colloque sera d?apporter quelques ?l?ments de r?ponses aux
questions suivantes, ? partir d?un examen minutieux de marqueurs qui, en
fran?ais actuel, c?est-?-dire en fran?ais en usage dans les ann?es 2000,
expriment ? la fois des sens grammaticaux et des sens discursifs, tels
parce que (cf. Debaisieux 1994), comme si, pis, mais, genre et quoi
(Lefeuvre, Morel et Teston-Bonnard 2011) :

1) Quels sont les types de marqueurs grammaticaux ?galement appel?s ?
   exprimer des sens discursifs et pourquoi (quelles sont leurs valeurs
   g?n?rales, ? quelles classes grammaticales appartiennent-ils, etc.) ?

2) Comment aborder, en synchronie, la polys?mie des marqueurs qui
   expriment tant?t des sens grammaticaux, tant?t des sens discursifs ?
   En particulier, l?approche selon laquelle il existerait
   syst?matiquement un invariant s?mantique en langue est-elle
   d?fendable pour ce type d?unit?s lexicales ?


3) Quelle part r?server ? la synonymie dans le domaine cibl? ? Ainsi, la
   synonymie exacte (en langue) entre deux marqueurs est-elle possible ?
   grande ?chelle (c?est-?-dire autrement que de mani?re ponctuelle)
   dans un style communicatif donn? (par exemple, dans la langue parl?e
   famili?re ou encore dans la langue parl?e usit?e en contexte formel)
   ?


4) Comment aborder la probl?matique de l?association, entre eux, des
   marqueurs ? valeur grammaticale, d?une part, et des marqueurs ?
   valeur discursive, d?autre part ? La notion de ?collocation? (ou de
   ?semi-figement?) a-t-elle sa place ici et si oui, comment la
   mod?liser ?

5) Comment repr?senter, de mani?re optimale, les sens et les diverses
   propri?t?s formelles des marqueurs grammaticaux et discursifs dans
   les ouvrages de r?f?rence (c?est-?-dire dans les dictionnaires et les
   grammaires) ? Y aurait-il lieu de d?velopper des syst?mes de
   repr?sentations compl?mentaires ? ceux qui servent de point d?ancrage
   aux ouvrages de r?f?rence traditionnels ? Si oui, quelles formes ces
   syst?mes devraient-ils prendre ?

Les diff?rentes questions formul?es ci-dessus seront abord?es par le
biais de donn?es authentiques susceptibles d?alimenter, en filigrane, la
r?flexion relative ? la dia-variation lexicale en fran?ais actuel
(diatopique, diastratique et diaphasique) dans les domaines cibl?s par
le colloque.

Dear Colleagues,

on behalf of the organizing Committee, I am pleased to announce the
third LTC Workshop on "Less Resourced Languages, new technologies, new
challenges and opportunities", to be held in conjunction with Language
Technology Conference in Poznan, Poland, on 8 December 2013.

General Conference website:http://www.ltc.amu.edu.pl/

Workshop Theme:

Many less resourced languages (LRL) that are thriving to get a place in
the digital space and that could profit of the new opportunities offered
by the Internet and digital devices will seriously face digital
extinction if they are not supported by Language Technologies. Language
Technologies (LTs, i.e. spelling and grammar checkers, electronic
dictionaries, localized interfaces, voice dictations, audio
transcriptions and subtitling, as well as multimedia/multimodal search
engines, language translators or information extraction tools) are
essential instruments to secure usability of less resourced languages
within the digital world, thus ensuring those languages equal
opportunities and raising their profile in the eyes of natives but also
non-natives from the younger, digitally-oriented generation. However,
there are many challenges to be faced to equip less resourced languages
with LTs (from basic to advanced): a substantial delay in development of
basic technologies, a lack of cooperation among languages communities, a
chronic shortage of funding (in particular for minority languages not
officially recognized, yet often the most vital ones over the Internet)
and the limited economic value placed over LTs for minority languages by
the market rules. At this critical time, this workshop seeks to continue
the debate as to what new technologies have to offer less resourced
languages, and how the research community might seek to overcome the
challenges and exploit the opportunities.

Paper submission deadline: 22 September 2013

We invite papers addressing the topics listed, but not limited to, the
ones below:

- Experiences in the development of digital applications for LRLs
- LRLs in educational and entertainment applications
- LRTs for securing access and inclusion to speakers of LRLs
- Development of LRs through crowdsourcing
- Youth-oriented applications for revitalisation of LRLs
- Experiences/models of cooperation for development of LRTs for LRLs
- Business models
- Gaps in availability of LRTs for LRLs
- Development of LTs when LRs are missing
- LR&Ts as a booster for the adoption of LRL within the digital world
- Lessons learnt from major recent infrastructure initiatives
- Infrastructures for making available LR and LT in all languages, and
  especially in the less-resourced ones
- Assessing Availability, Quality, Maturity and Sustainability of LT and
  LR , comparing the LRLs and the major ones
- Requirements for the production, validation and distribution of LR for
  less-resourced languages


Program (general framework): The workshop will comprise presentations
(including keynote talks) and a panel session, including an EC
representative . The details of the program is in preparation and will
be published soon on the conference site.

Co-Chairs: Claudia Soria (CNR-ILC, Italy), Khalid Choukri (ELRA, ELDA,
France), Joseph Mariani (LIMSI-CNRS & IMMI, France), Zygmunt Vetulani
(Adam Mickiewicz University, Poland).

LREC 2014 HOT TOPICS

Big Data, Linked Open Data, LRs and HLT

The ever-increasing quantities of large and complex digital datasets,
structured or unstructured, multilingual, multimodal or multimedia, pose
new challenges but at the same time open up new opportunities for HLT
and related fields. Ubiquitous data and information capturing devices,
social media and networks, the web at large with its big data /
knowledge bases and other information capturing / aggregating /
publishing platforms are providing useful information and/or knowledge
for a wide range of LT applications.
LREC 2014 puts a strong emphasis on the synergies of the big Linked Open
Data and LRs/LT communities and their complementarity in cracking LT
problems and developing useful applications and services.

LRs in the Collaborative Age

The amount of collaboratively generated and used language data is
constantly increasing and it is therefore time to open a wide discussion
on such LRs at LREC. There is a need to discuss the types of LRs that
can be collaboratively generated and used.
Are lexicons, dictionaries, corpora, ontologies (of language data),
grammars, tagsets, data categories, all possible fields in which a
collaborative approach can be applied? Can collaboratively generated LRs
be standardised/harmonised? And how can quality control be applied to
collaboratively generated LRs? How can a collaborative approach ensure
that less-resourced languages receive the same digital dignity as
mainstream languages?
There is also a need to discuss legal aspects related to collaboratively
generated LRs. And last but not least: are there different types of
collaborative approaches, or is the Wikimedia style the best approach to
collaborative generation and use of LRs?

*LREC 2014 SPECIAL HIGHLIGHT*
*Share your LRs!*

In addition to describing your LRs in the LRE Map -- now a normal step
in the submission procedure of many conferences -- LREC 2014 recognises
that the time is ripe to launch another important initiative, the LREC
Repository of shared LRs!
When submitting a paper, you will be offered the possibility to share 
your LRs (data, tools, web-services, etc.), uploading them in a special 
LREC META-SHARE repository set up by ELRA.
Your LRs will be made available to all LREC participants before the 
conference, to be re-used, compared, analysed, ...
This effort of sharing LRs, linked to the LRE Map for their description,
may become a new "regular" feature for conferences in our field, thus
contributing to creating a common repository where everyone can deposit
and share data.

*PROGRAMME*
The Scientific Programme will include invited talks, oral presentations,
poster and demo presentations, and panels, in addition to a keynote
address by the winner of the Antonio Zampolli Prize.

*SUBMISSIONS AND DATES*
Submission of proposals for oral and poster (or poster+demo) papers: 15 
October 2013
Abstracts should consist of about 1500-2000 words, will be submitted
through START @*https://www.softconf.com/lrec2014/main/*and will be
peer-reviewed.

Submission of proposals for panels, workshops and tutorials: 15 October 2013
Proposals should be submitted via an online form on the LREC website
(*click Submission from the Home page*) and will be reviewed by the
Programme Committee.

*PROCEEDINGS*
The Proceedings will include both oral and poster papers, in the same 
format.

There is no difference in quality between oral and poster
presentations. 
Only the appropriateness of the type of communication (more or less 
interactive) to the content of the paper will be considered.

In addition a Book of Abstracts will be printed.

Les auteurs sont invit?s ? pr?senter deux types de communications :

  - des articles pr?sentant des travaux de recherche originaux
  - des prises de position pr?sentant un point de vue sur l??tat des
    recherches en TALN, fond?es sur une solide exp?rience du domaine

Les articles doivent pr?senter des travaux originaux, comportant un
apport substantiel par rapport ? d'autres travaux ?ventuellement d?j?
publi?s. Les traductions d'articles publi?s ailleurs dans une autre
langue ne sont pas accept?es.

Les articles longs seront pr?sent?s sous forme d?une communication
orale, les articles courts sous forme d?un poster.

Les communications pourront porter sur tous les th?mes du TAL.

CRIT?RES DE S?LECTION

Le dialogue entre un homme et une machine n?est pas encore similaire au
dialogue naturel entre deux humains. Des techniques issues de plusieurs
disciplines sont appliqu?es avec une habilet? croissante, pour une
fluidit? et un r?alisme en progr?s. Analyse linguistique, r?solution des
r?f?rences, identification des actes de dialogue, des intentions de
l?utilisateur, d?cision de la r?action du syst?me et du message ?
produire en retour : autant d??tapes de traitement caract?ris?es chacune
par des th?ories propres et des ressources sp?cifiques.

Cet ouvrage synth?tise les principaux probl?mes pos?s par chaque ?tape
de conception d?un syst?me de dialogue homme-machine tout en proposant
plusieurs pistes pour suivre la voie d?un dialogue en langage
naturel. Il se fonde sur les exp?riences de recherche et les
d?veloppements r?cents, avec des pr?occupations recoupant celles des
domaines de l?intelligence artificielle, du traitement automatique des
langues, des interfaces homme-machine, comme les interfaces multimodales
ou multim?dias.

L'auteur
Docteur en informatique et charg? de recherche au CNRS, Fr?d?ric
Landragin travaille sur l?analyse et la mod?lisation de l?interpr?tation
du langage, pour son application au dialogue homme-machine.

*Pr?sentation*

La mise ? disposition de grands corpus ?lectroniques oraux ou ?crits
ainsi que celle de ressources annot?es ? des niveaux divers
(morphologique, syntaxique, s?mantique et discursif) ouvrent la voie ?
des travaux qui interrogent les approches classiques des Sciences du
Langage. Le d?veloppement d?outils de traitement informatique (tels que
les outils de collectes de donn?es langagi?res, les outils d'aide ? la
transcription, les outils d?annotation automatique ou manuelle, les
outils d'analyse fond?s sur des traitements symboliques et/ou
statistiques, les syst?mes d?apprentissage, etc.) transforme les
m?thodes d?acc?s aux sources et affecte les d?marches d'?tude
linguistique. La question de la mutualisation et de la capitalisation
des ressources devient maintenant un enjeu majeur pour l?ensemble de la
communaut?, soulevant des probl?matiques d?interop?rabilit?, de
normalisation et des questions d?ordre juridique, ?thique et
d?ontologique. On observe une tendance des instances ? accompagner ce
mouvement (divers projets de constitution de ? grands ? corpus et de
groupes de travail d'annotation, mise en place de laboratoires et
d??quipements d?excellence d?di?s, etc.).

Avec une d?marche diff?rente des colloques internationaux sp?cialis?s
dans le Traitement Automatique des Langues (TAL), cette session du CMLF
2014 voudrait ouvrir un espace d??changes scientifiques entre
diff?rentes approches linguistiques, sans exclusive de cadres
th?oriques, de m?thodologies ou de pratiques ax?es sur la th?orie et/ou
l?empirisme. Cette session sera l?occasion de mettre en relief tout
aussi bien des recherches ?mergentes que des travaux qui consolident les
approches existantes.

La session ? Ressources et outils pour l?analyse linguistique? invite ?
soumettre des propositions d?articles originaux dont l?objet est de
construire, d?velopper, exploiter des ressources ou des outils dans tous
les domaines de la linguistique fran?aise, aussi bien ? l?oral qu??
l??crit : morphologie, syntaxe, s?mantique, discursif, phon?tique,
phonologie.

CALL FOR PAPERS 

2nd Workshop on Argumentation in Artificial Intelligence and Philosophy:
computational and philosophical perspectives (ARGAIP-2013)

Web site: http://sites.google.com/site/argaip13/ 

Argumentation is an important and exciting research topic that cuts
across a variety of disciplines: Philosophy, Psychology, Communications
Studies, Linguistics and Computer Science, in particular Artificial
Intelligence. More specifically, argumentation theory involves different
ways for analyzing arguments and their relationships. In everyday life
arguments are "reasons to believe and reasons to act". Until recent
years, the idea of "argumentation" as the process of creating arguments
for and against competing claims, was a subject of interest to
philosophers and lawyers. In recent years, however, there has been a
growth of interest in the subject from formal and technical perspectives
in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, and a wide use of
argumentation technologies in practical applications. Here,
argumentation is viewed as a mechanical procedure for interpreting
events, organizing and presenting documents, and making decisions about
actions. From a theoretical perspective, argumentation offers a novel
framework providing new light on classical forms of reasoning, such as
logical deduction, induction, abduction and plausible reasoning,
communication, explanations of advice, supporting discussion and
negotiation in computer-supported cooperative work. From a
human-computer interaction point of view, argumentation is a versatile
technique that facilitates natural system behavior and is more easily
understood by human users. 

In spite of the wide range of disciplines interested in Argumentation,
scientific communities tend to be organized along disciplinary
boundaries, with only moderate integration occurring between
computational models and philosophical and linguistic theories of
Argumentation. This workshop aims at rectifying this situation, bringing
together people from various disciplines (most notably, Artificial
Intelligence, Philosophy, Linguistics, and Psychology) and asking them
to compare their methods and results in the study of Argumentation.

ABSTRACT
-------------------
This book addresses some of the key questions that scientists have been
asking themselves for centuries: what is knowledge? What is information?
How do we know that we know something? How do we construct meaning from
the perceptions of things? And how do we communicate this meaning to
others?that is to say, inform them? Although no consensus exists on a
common definition of the concepts of information and communication, few
can reject the hypothesis that information ? whether perceived as an ?
object ? or as a ? process ? - is a precondition for knowledge.
Epistemology can be defined as the study of how we know things in
general?this is its primary signification in the anglophone world?or,
more specifically, as the study of how scientific knowledge is attained
and validated?this is how it is conceived in the francophone world. To
adopt an epistemological stance is to commit oneself to render an
account of what constitutes knowledge or, in procedural terms, to render
an account of when one can claim to know something. An epistemological
theory imposes constraints on the interpretation of human cognitive
interaction with the world. It goes without saying that different
epistemological theories will have more or less restrictive criteria for
distinguishing what constitutes knowledge from what is not. If
information is a precondition for knowledge acquisition, giving an
account of how knowledge is acquired should affect our understanding of
information and communication as concepts. While much has been written
on the definition of these concepts, relatively few researchers have
sought to establish explicit links between differing theoretical
conceptions of them and the underlying epistemological stances. This is
what this volume attempts to do. It is a multidisciplinary exploration
of how information and communication are perceived in different
disciplines and how this affects theories of knowledge.

R?sum?
-------
Cet ouvrage de synth?se sur les fondements th?oriques et
?pist?mo-logiques de la science de l?information r?pond ? trois
questions :

- existe-t-il une science de l?information ? part enti?re ?
- comment se d?finit l?information, objet de cette science ?
- y a-t-il une sp?cificit? fran?aise de la science de l?information ?

Ce livre compare les chemins parcourus par la science de l?information
en France et dans le reste du monde. Il contextualise cette ?volution ?
l?aune d?une diversit? d?inscriptions disciplinaires. L?enjeu de la
science de l?information est de concilier l?approche r?aliste de la
connaissance, l?approche individualiste des sciences cognitives et
l?approche collectiviste o? les domaines sont fa?onn?s et les compor-
tements sont modul?s par les environne- ments, les cultures et les
construits sociaux partag?s.

Cette ?tude sera utile ? tous les chercheurs, ?tudiants et
professionnels d?sirant appro- fondir leurs connaissances sur les
fondements th?oriques de la science de l?information.

The 1st International Workshop on Histoinformatics aims at fostering the
interaction between Computer Science and Historical Science towards
"Computational History". This interdisciplinary initiative is a response
to the growing popularity of Digital Humanities and an increased
tendency to apply computer techniques for supporting and facilitating
research in Humanities. Nowadays, due to the increasing activities in
digitizing and opening historical sources, the Science of History can
greatly benefit from the advances of Computer and Information sciences
which consist of processing, organizing and making sense of data and
information. As such, new Computer Science techniques can be applied to
verify and validate historical assumptions based on text reasoning,
image interpretation or memory understanding. Our objective is to
provide for the two different research communities a place to meet and
exchange ideas and to facilitate discussion. We hope the workshop will
result in a survey of current problems and potential solutions, with
particular focus on exploring opportunities for collaboration and
interaction of researchers working on various subareas within Computer
Science and History Sciences. The main topics of the workshop are that
of supporting historical research and analysis through the application
of Computer Science theories or technologies, analyzing and making use
of historical texts, recreating past course of actions, analyzing
collective memories, visualizing historical data, providing efficient
access to large wealth of accumulated historical knowledge and so on.
The detailed topics of expected paper submissions are (but not limited
to):



- Processing and text mining of historical documents
- Analysis of longitudinal document collections
- Search models in document archives and historical collections,
  associative search
- Causal relationship discovery based on historical resources
- Entity relationship extraction, detecting and resolving historical
  references in text
- Computational linguistics for old texts
- Digitizing and archiving
- Modeling evolution of entities and relationships over time
- Automatic multimedia document dating
- Applications of artificial intelligence techniques to history
- Simulating and recreating the past course of actions, social 
  relations, motivations, figurations
- Analysis of language change over time
- Handling uncertain and fragmentary text and image data
- Finding analogical entities
- Entity linking in historical collections
- Named entity detection in historical texts
- Automatic biography generation
- Mining Wikipedia for historical data
- OCR and transcription of old texts
- Effective interfaces for searching, browsing or visualizing historical
  data collections
- Collective memory analysis
- Studying and modeling forgetting and remembering processes
- Vulgarization of History through new media
- Probing the limits of Histoinformatics
- Epistemologies in the Humanities and Computer Science

Full paper submissions are limited to 14 pages, while short paper
submissions should be less than 10 pages (extended). Submissions should
be sent in English in PDF via the submission website (see the website
for link). They should be formatted according to Springer LNCS paper
formatting guidelines. They must be original and have not been submitted
for publication elsewhere. Submissions will be evaluated by at least
three different reviewers from both computer and history science areas.
The accepted papers will be published by Springer as post proceedings
volume (to appear after the workshop).

Call for Events
Federated Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems
Warsaw, Poland, September 7-10, 2014
www.fedcsis.org

The 2014 Federated Conference on Computer Science and Information
Systems cordially invites you to consider contributing an Event
(conference, symposium, workshop, consortium meeting, special
session). The FedCSIS multi-conference consists of a significant number
of recurring Events, but proposals for new associated Events are welcome
until October 18, 2013. The Events can run over any span of time within
the conference dates; from half-day to three days.

Warszawa (Warsaw), the capital of Poland, is proud to be the host city
of FedCSIS 2014.

The FedCSIS Events provide a platform for bringing together researchers,
practitioners, and academia to present and discuss ideas, challenges,
and potential solutions on established or emerging topics related to
research and practice in computer science and information systems.

The Events will be selected based on the scientific/technical interest
and/or their relevance to practitioners in their topics, the clarity of
the proposal in addressing the requested information, the innovativeness
of the Event topics, and the capacity in the FedCSIS multi-conference
program.

The 2013, FedCSIS - held in Krak?w, Poland - attracted 420 papers, of
which 172 articles were accepted as full papers (acceptance rate of
approximately 41%). Some events accepted additionally short and position
papers. FedcSIS conference full and short papers will be published in
the IEEE Xplore Digital Library, while position papers in a separate
volumeof the Annals of Computer Science and Information systems series
(publication process will be completed by October 31, 2013).

Publications

As in previous years, FedCSIS pre-Proceedings will be published on a USB
memory stick given to FedCSIS participants. Next, (only) papers
presented during the conference will be published in the IEEE Xplore
Digital Library proceedings (or as position papers, published in a
separate volume), and posted at the conference WWW site. The IEEE
proceedings will be published under an ISBN and ISSN numbers (and, when
applicable, an IEEE Catalog number), under a nonexclusive
copyright. Such copyright implies that Events' organizers can and,
indeed, are strongly encouraged to invite extended and revised papers
for post-conference publications in high-quality journals, edited
volumes, etc.


Event Proposals

Event proposals should include the following information (2 pages
maximum):

1. The nature of the Event. 

2. The title of the Event, and a clear description of the topic,
   including a brief justification.

3. The complete contact information of the Event organizers, including a
   link to their personal websites, and an overview of previous
   experiences with organization of scientific events.

4. Preliminary list of PC members who have agreed to join. 

5. Indication of the expected number of papers/attendees to attend the
   Event.

6. Information of expected post-Event publications, of extended and
   revised papers, in high-quality journals, edited volumes, etc.

Event organizers should email their proposals (in a single pdf file) by
October 18, 2013, to the FedCSIS Secretariat at: secretariat at fedcsis.org

Bonjour,


C'est avec plaisir que je vous fais part de la soutenance de ma th?se,
intitul?e :

"M?thode de construction d'un r?seau termino-conceptuel normalis? :
contribution ? la construction d'ontologies ? partir de textes"


La soutenance se d?roulera le lundi 30 septembre, ? 14h.30, ?
l'Universit? Paris 13, 99 av. J.B Cl?ment 93430 Villetaneuse, salle B107
du LIPN (voir : http://lipn.univ-paris13.fr/fr/contact ).  Elle sera
suivie d'un pot auquel vous ?tes bien s?r chaleureusement convi?s.

Composition du Jury :

Jean Charlet, Charg? de mission Recherche AP-HP, INSERM (Rapporteur)
Marie-Claude L'Homme, Professeur, Universit? de Montr?al (Rapporteur)
Adeline Nazarenko, Professeur, Universit? Paris 13 (Directrice)

Aldo Gangemi, Professeur, Universit? Paris 13 (Examinateur)


R?sum? :

La construction d'ontologies de domaine ? partir de textes repose sur
des techniques de traitement automatique de la langue (TAL) coupl?es ?
des techniques d'ing?nierie de connaissances pour aboutir ? un mod?le
formel d?crivant les connaissances partag?es dans un domaine
pr?cis. L'un des enjeux du passage des textes ? des ontologies est
l'identification du vocabulaire du domaine et sa structuration sous la
forme d'un thesaurus avant sa formalisation. Ce sont les difficult?s
inh?rentes ? cette exploitation du mat?riau linguistique et ? sa
normalisation qui ont retenu notre attention dans ce travail de th?se.

Nous proposons une m?thode de normalisation qui permet de transformer le
mat?riau linguistique -- tel qu'il a ?t? extrait d'un corpus
d'acquisition par des outils de TAL -- en un r?seau s?mantique que nous
appelons "r?seau termino-conceptuel" et qui d?crit le vocabulaire
normalis? du domaine, c'est-?-dire le vocabulaire filtr?, d?sambigu?s?
et structur?. Ce vocabulaire normalis? peut ?tre utilis? tel que (c'est
une forme de thesaurus) ou comme point de d?part pour la formalisation
en ontologie.

Cette th?se a ?t? conduite dans le cadre du projet europ?en ONTORULE
(ONTOlogy meets business RULEs). Notre approche s'inscrit dans le cadre
global d'une m?thode de construction de ressources ontologiques ? partir
de textes, TERMINAE, qui s'appuie sur une approche terminologique et qui
propose de m?diatiser le passage du terme au concept par un niveau
termino-conceptuel.

Cette th?se a permis d'affiner cette m?thode en montrant comment
structurer les diff?rents niveaux de connaissances (les niveaux
terminologique, termino-conceptuel et conceptuel), d?composer le travail
de normalisation en diff?rentes op?rations, encha?ner ces op?rations et
contr?ler le processus global de normalisation. Cette m?thode de
normalisation permet de guider le travail de l'ing?nieur de la
connaissance qui se retrouve, ? l'issue de la phase d'analyse des corpus
d'acquisition, face ? une masse importante d'unit?s linguistiques ?
traiter, dont certaines sont ambigu?s et qui ne sont pas toutes
pertinentes pour le domaine.

Pour ?laborer cette m?thode de normalisation, cette th?se a mis l'accent
sur :

- l'enrichissement du r?seau terminologique par la prise en compte
  notamment des entit?s nomm?es l? o? les approches terminologiques
  exploitaient essentiellement les termes;

- la formalisation des structures de connaissances manipul?es dans le
  processus de construction d'ontologies : nous avons d?fini pr?cis?ment
  les formalismes ? utiliser pour mod?liser chaque niveau de
  connaissances et mis en ?vidence les liens de correspondance qui
  permettent de d?river un mod?le ? partir d'un autre mais aussi
  d'articuler les connaissances ontologiques et terminologiques;

- la d?finition pr?cise des op?rations de normalisation qui manipulent
  les structures de connaissances ci-dessus et am?nent ? construire un
  r?seau termino-conceptuel ? partir d'un r?seau terminologique;
  l'ensemble de ces op?rations forme une m?thode de normalisation qui
  permet de guider l'ing?nieur de la connaissance dans la d?tection du
  vocabulaire du domaine et dans ses choix de normalisation; des
  indicateurs permettent de suivre la progression du travail de
  normalisation.


Mots cl?s :

Normalisation terminologique, Construction d'ontologies ? partir de
textes, Potentiel terminologique, Entit?s nomm?es.

Bien cordialement.

automatique de phrases : un ?tude vers la g?n?ration de r?sum?s" aura
lieu le lundi 30 Septembre 2013 ? 14h30 dans la salle des th?ses de
l'Universit? d'Avignon etd es Pays de Vaucluse ? St. Marthe.


========R?sum?========

Cette ?tude pr?sente une nouvelle approche pour la g?n?ration
automatique de r?sum?s, un des principaux d?fis du Traitement de la
Langue Naturelle. Ce sujet, trait? pendant un demi-si?cle par la
recherche, reste encore actuel car personne n'a encore r?ussi ? cr?er
automatiquement des r?sum?s comparables, en qualit?, avec ceux produits
par des humains.
C'est dans ce contexte que la recherche en r?sum? automatique s'est 
divis?e en deux grandes cat?gories : le r?sum? par extraction et le 
r?sum? par abstraction. Dans le premier, les phrases sont tri?es de 
fa?on ? ce que les meilleures conforment le r?sum? final.
Or, les phrases s?lectionn?es pour le r?sum? portent souvent des 
informations secondaires, une analyse plus fine s'av?re n?cessaire.
Nous proposons une m?thode de compression automatique de phrases bas?e 
sur l'?limination de fragments ? l'int?rieur de celles-ci.
A partir d'un corpus annot?, nous avons cr?? un mod?le lin?aire pour
pr?dire la suppression de ces fragments en fonction de caract?ristiques
simples. Notre m?thode prend en compte trois principes : celui de la
pertinence du contenu, l'informativit?; celui de la qualit? du contenu,
la grammaticalit?, et la longueur, le taux de compression. Pour mesurer
l'informativit? des fragments, nous utilisons une technique inspir?e de
la physique statistique : l'?nergie textuelle. Quant ? la
grammaticalit?, nous proposons d'utiliser des mod?les de langage
probabilistes.
La m?thode propos?e est capable de g?n?rer des r?sum?s corrects en
espagnol.  Les r?sultats de cette ?tude soul?vent divers aspects
int?ressants vis-?- vis du r?sum? de textes par compression de phrases.
On a observ? qu'en g?n?ral il y a un haut degr? de subjectivit? de la
t?che. Il n'y a pas de compression optimale unique mais plusieurs
compressions correctes possibles. Nous consid?rons donc que les
r?sultats de cette ?tude ouvrent la discussion par rapport ? la
subjectivit? de l'informativit? et son influence pour le r?sum?
automatique.

EACL 2014 SECOND CALL FOR TUTORIAL PROPOSALS

Proposals are invited for the Tutorial Program of the 14th Conference of
the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics
(EACL 2014), to be held in Gothenburg, Sweden, from 26 to 30 April
2014. The selected tutorials will be given on the Saturday and Sunday
preceding the main conference (26 and 27 April).

EACL 2014 seeks proposals for tutorials in all areas of computational
linguistics, broadly conceived to include disciplines such as
Linguistics, Speech, Information Retrieval, Psycholinguistics, and
Multimodal Processing. We particularly welcome (1) tutorials which cover
advances in newly emerging areas not previously covered in an *ACL
related tutorial, and (2) tutorials which provide introductions into
related fields which are potentially relevant for the CL community
(e.g. bioinformatics, neuroscience, human language processing, video and
image analysis, machine learning techniques). In order to gather a
widespread audience, the experience and qualifications of the
instructors will also be taken into account.


REMUNERATION

Remuneration for tutorials is regulated by ACL policies:

  http://aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php?title=Policy_on_tutorial_teacher_payment

Please note that remuneration for tutorial presenters is fixed according
to the above policy and does not cover registration fees for the main
conference.


SUBMISSION DETAILS

Proposals for tutorials should contain:

1. A title and brief description of the tutorial content and its
   relevance to the ACL community (not more than 2 pages).
2. A brief outline of the tutorial structure showing that the tutorial's
   core content can be covered in a three-hour slot (excluding a coffee
   break). In exceptional cases six-hour tutorial slots are available as
   well.
3. The names, postal addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses of
   the tutorial instructors, including a one-paragraph statement of
   their research interests and areas of expertise.
4. A list of previous venues and approximate audience sizes, if the same
   or a similar tutorial has been given elsewhere; otherwise an estimate
   of the audience size.
5. A description of special requirements for technical equipment
   (e.g. internet access). 

Proposals should be submitted by electronic mail, in plain ASCII text,
to "tutorials at eacl2014 dot org", no later than 1 November 2013. The
subject line should be: "EACL 2014 Tutorial Proposal". Please note that
only proposals submitted by e-mail will be taken into account.


TUTORIAL SPEAKER RESPONSIBILITIES

Accepted tutorial speakers will be notified by 15 November 2013, and
must then provide abstracts of their tutorials for inclusion in the
conference registration material by 15 December 2013. The description
should be in two formats: an ASCII version that can be included in email
announcements and published on the conference web site, and a PDF
version for inclusion in the electronic proceedings (detailed
instructions to follow).

Tutorial speakers must provide tutorial materials, at least containing
copies of the course slides as well as a bibliography for the material
covered in the tutorial, by 1 February 2014.

Vocalisations of Captive Guinea Baboons 

R?sum? : As part of a larger study investigating vocal production in
Guinea baboons, I have been examining the vocalisations of a captive
group at the CNRS primate station in Rousset. The main goal of this
aspect of the project was to produce a large-scale database in order to
1) characterise the vocal repertoire of this baboon species, 2)
determine the acoustic features of the vocalisations, and 3) test the
descriptive adequacy of existing categories. Twelve vocalisations were
distinguishable by ear, but not all vocalisations were produced by all
age and sex groups. A single vocalisation type could occur in different
contexts and some vocalisations had a large degree of variability. This
database will be useful for new researchers and care staff who work with
Guinea baboons in captivity as well as aiding in our understanding of
the evolution of vocal communication between baboon taxa and within the
primate genera.
