>              Ontologies and Lexical Knowledge Bases
>         27th May 2002, Las Palmas, Canary Islands - Spain

> Support by:

>   and
>  OntoWeb (http://www.ontoweb.org/)
>
> Workshop motivation and aims
>
> The rise of the semantic web has greatly increased the interest
> in ontologies, but also added new critical requirements for them,
> such as wide coverage, interoperability and multi-linguality. In
> the perspective of the semantic web, the link between ontologies
> and natural language appears to be crucial. Indeed, there is a
> high level of correspondence between ontologies and lexical
> knowledge bases. They are subject to the same requirements, and
> there is an ever increasing potential and need for cooperation
> between the two fields.
>
> Following the tradition of the first OntoLex workshop (OntoLex'00
> Sozopol, Bulgaria 2000), this workshop will focus on the links
> between ontologies and lexical knowledge bases, aiming at being a
> meeting point for a number of communities that are currently not
> sufficiently connected:
>
> - lexical semanticists;
> - lexicographers and terminologists;
> - ontologists with computer science background;
> - ontologists with philosophical background;
>
> - ontology users active in various areas (knowledge management,
>  information extraction, information retrieval, machine
>  translation, conceptual modelling, eCommerce).
>
> The needs for greater interconnectivity among the above research
> areas have been widely recognized in the last years. Two good
> examples of an interdisciplinary approach are the use of upper
> ontologies in European projects as EuroWordNet and SIMPLE, and
> some recent work on the conceptual analysis of WordNet's
> top-level taxonomy presented at FOIS2001.
>
> Lexical knowledge bases are considered an important kind of
> language resources. Moreover, lexical knowledge bases and
> ontologies are starting to play a crucial role in the creation
> and usage of other language resources such as syntactic
> tree-banks and lexicons.
>
> The workshop will take place on the 27th of May 2002 at Las
> Palmas, Canary Islands - Spain (preceding the 3rd International
> Language Resources and Evaluation Conference, LREC2002).
