CALL

We invite the submission of papers for the forthcoming eight INTEX/NooJ
workshop, to be held in Besançon, May  30-June 1, 2005.

INTEX/NooJ is a linguistic development environment that can parse texts of
several million words in real  time.

INTEX/NooJ includes tools to construct and maintain large-coverage lexical
resources, as well as  morphological and syntactic grammars. Dictionaries and
grammars are applied to texts in order to locate  morphological, lexical and
syntactic patterns, remove ambiguities, and tag simple and compound words.

INTEX/NooJ can build lemmatized concordances of large texts from Finite-State or
Context-Free grammars, and  can accordingly perform transformation operations on
texts in cascade, in order to annotate the text, or to  generate paraphrases;
these features, when applied in cascade, give INTEX/NooJ the power of a Turing
Machine.  INTEX/NooJ is used as a linguistic development platform, an
information retrieval system, a terminological  extractor, as well as to teach
linguistics and computational linguistics to students.

As in the previous workshops, this meeting will be the opportunity for INTEX and
NooJ users, as well as other  researchers interested in NLP, to meet and to
exchange their experience of development, research or teaching.  It will also be
the occasion to present and discover the recent developments of NooJ.

Please, send before March 15, 2005 a one-page abstract to Max Silberztein by
email. The abstract, in French  or in English, should contain the title of the
article, and the name, affiliation, surface mail and  electronic address of each
author.

All papers will be reviewed by the program committee. Authors will be notified
whether their papers are  accepted or rejected by April 8th, 2005. The timeslot
is 30 minutes for presentations (including 5 minutes  for discussions). After
the conference, authors selected for publishing by the program committee will be
invited to send a definitive version of their papers.
