Corpora: 1. A theme for a doctoral thesis? 2. CICLing-2001 deadline.

[Alexander Gelbukh]

Dear colleagues,

I am looking for a research theme for a doctoral student of mine. Could you
please give me some piece of advice?

We are a Natural Language Lab of a computing research center. Thus, no
"traditional" (paper-pencil) lexicography nor "pure" linguistics nor any
Humanities. Something computer-related (and not too difficult :-).

We work with Spanish (we have some corpora, syntactic analyser, etc.), and
our main areas of competence are (dictionary-based) (syntactic)
disambiguation and (corpus-based) dictionary compilation, though we also
work on anaphora resolution, information retrieval, information extraction,
text mining, etc.

------

Just using the opportunity, I remind you of the approaching poster deadline
for CICLing-2001 (www.CICLing.org/2001). If you are interested in a full
paper submission, please let me know.

Thank you!
Alexander
