ACL'99 Workshop
COREFERENCE AND ITS APPLICATIONS
June 22, 1999
University of Maryland
College Park,
MD. USA
http://www.cs.duke.edu/~amit/acl99-wkshp.html
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
Coreference is in some sense nature's own hyperlink. It conveys how
individual statements are connected within documents, across documents
and across bodies of human knowledge. Consequently coreference
resolution algorithms are at the core of Natural Language
Processing. Most of the work done on coreference deals with
a single language and a single text document (usually newswire).
As NLP research matures into "application" phases (as opposed to
theory-development), NLP systems are moving beyond traditional
research sources to document sets which reflect a more natural,
research-oriented mix. This shift can be seen in both the document
sets and tasks used in recent HUB, MET, and TDT evaluations. The
new sources consist of documents in several different languages,
documents with data from noisy sources, and documents containing
multimedia. In order for NLP systems to make a successful
transition to these new sources, it is critical for coreference
resolution systems to also work on these new sources.
The workshop invites papers regarding the theory, design, and
evaluation of coreference resolution systems that deal with
non-traditional data sources. In particular, we encourage
submission of papers for the following types of coreference:
*-Cross-document coreference
*-Coreference resolution in languages other than English
*-Coreference resolution on noisy data
*-Coreference resolution on non-text data (example: human speech)
*-Coreference resolution on multimedia data
In addition, the workshop also invites papers on innovative NLP
applications that rely heavily on coreference resolution systems.
FORMAT FOR SUBMISSION
Paper submissions should consist of a full paper (5000 words or less,
including references). Each submission should include a separate
title page providing the following information: the title, a short
abstract, names and affiliations of all the authors, the full address

CALL FOR PAPERS
ACL'99 Workshop on the Relationship Between
Discourse/Dialogue Structure and Reference
June 21 1999
University of Maryland
http://www.isi.edu/~marcu/discourse-ref-acl99/
---------------------------------
The relationship between the structure of discourse and dialogue and
the
use of referring expressions has been the focus of much research in
linguistics, computational linguistics, and psycholinguistics.
Although
individual efforts have been couched in a variety of frameworks
ranging
from (S)DRT and RST to Centering, they all share two underlying
assumptions:
1. The structure of discourse affects the interpretation of
referring
expressions and the space of anaphoric accessibility.
2. The use of referring expressions restricts the set of possible
discourse interpretations.
However, most approaches address only one of these two views on the
relation between structure and reference. And although several
theories
explaining this relationship exist, few have made a significant impact
on practical applications such as discourse parsing, summarization,
generation, and name-entity recognition.
This workshop will provide a forum for researchers in all areas of
linguistics, psycholinguistics, and computational linguistics who are
interested in advancing the state of the art in understanding the
relationship between discourse/dialogue structure and reference.
Submissions are invited on, but not limited to, the following topics
and
issues:
1. Linguistic issues:
+ what is the relation between lexico-grammatical
constructs, referring expressions, and the structure of
discourse/dialogue?
2. Psycholinguistic issues:
+ how does the use of referents affect the human
interpretation of discourse/dialogue?
3. Corpus-specific issues:
+ what coding schemata and annotation tools should one
use
in order to encode the relation between
discourse/dialogue structure and reference?
4. Representation issues:
+ how should discourse/dialogue structures and referents
be
represented?
+ how should one represent the relationship between them:
as preferences; or as constraints?
5. Algorithmic issues:
+ how can discourse/dialogue structures, referents, and
co-referential links be identified and computed?
+ knowledge-intensive vs. shallow approaches
+ rule-driven vs. statistical vs. corpus-based approaches
+ Wordnet-based approaches
+ how do discourse/dialogue structure and referential
expressions interact in natural language generation?
6. General issues:
+ what are the commonalities of current approaches to
studying the relation between discourse/dialogue and
referents?
+ what are the differences?
+ what are the arguments against a relation between
discourse/dialogue structure and reference?
+ how language-dependent is the relation between
discourse/dialogue structure and reference?
Post-Workshop Dissemination:
Selected papers from the workshop will be compiled into a volume
tentatively scheduled to appear in the Text, Speech, and Language
Technology book series from Kluwer Academic Press.
Submission Procedure:
* Authors are requested to submit one electronic version of their
papers OR four hardcopies. Please submit hardcopies only if
electronic submission is impossible.

> TITLE: Towards Standards and Tools for Discourse Tagging
>
> DESCRIPTION:
>
> Discourse tagging assigns labels from a tag set to discourse units in
> texts or dialogues. The discourse units range from words or referring
> expressions to multi-utterance units identified by criteria such as
> speaker intention or initiative. Since the emergence of syntactically
> annotated corpora has resulted in major advances in sentence-level
> natural language processing, the hope is that corpora of tagged
> discourse may lead to similar advances in the area of discourse
> processing.
>
> Work on discourse tagging has gained momentum in the last 3-4 years.
> Three major initiatives in this area are: the Discourse Resource
> Initiative (http://www.georgetown.edu/luperfoy/Discourse-Treebank/),
> that has organized yearly international workshops addressing the
> standardization of discourse tagging schemes for coreference,
> for dialogue acts, and for higher level discourse structures;
> MATE (http://mate.mip.ou.dk/),
> a project co-funded by the European Union, whose aim is to
> develop tools and standards for tagging spoken dialogue
> corpora at different levels, including the discourse level;
> the Global Document Annotation initiative, that aims at having
> Internet authors annotate their documents with a common standard
> tag set which allows machines to recognize the semantic and pragmatic
> structures of documents (http://ww.etl.go.jp/etl/nl/GDA).
>
> Even with these three initiatives in place, there is still much work to
> be done before there are widely accepted (standardized) tagging
> schemes for various discourse phenomena that could be shared across
> sites; moreover, there has not yet been an open forum to which
> researchers working in this area could participate and
> contribute. This workshop will provide such a forum.
>
> Submissions are invited on, but not limited to, the following topics
> and issues:
>
> 1. How can standardization for discourse tagging concretely be achieved?
> by developing a single coding scheme, or more likely, a set of coding
> schemes, one for each phenomenon of interest? or rather, by developing
> some specification guidelines and a way of mapping from one scheme to
> another? in some other way?
>
> 2. Cross-level coding: all the initiatives mentioned above promote an
> approach in which coding schemes are developed at different levels,
> rather than an approach in which a monolithic scheme addresses all
> phenomena. Given this methodology, the issue of cross-level coding
> arises, namely, how can coding schemes for different levels
> take advantage of each other and allow coding of cross-level
> relationships? is it possible to relate corpus annotations at
> different annotation levels to examine the interdependence of
> linguistic phenomena?
>
> 3. Coding schemes and theories of discourse: is it possible to develop
> coding schemes that faithfully reflect a discourse theory? if yes,
> is it desirable? conversely, can corpora coded for discourse issues
> help advance our theoretical understanding of discourse phenomena?
>
> 4. Coding schemes and applications: is it possible to design
> discourse coding schemes independently from the applications tagged
> corpora are supposed to be used for (eg, to train a speech act
> recognizer)?
>
> 5. Coding schemes and reliability: discourse categories are difficult
> to code for reliably. Whatever the reason (e.g., lack of an overarching
> theory for discourse, or genuine ambiguity and misunderstandings in real
> dialogue reflected in the coding), how can we devise reliable
> coding schemes? What reliability measures should be used: are
> widely used measures (Kappa, Alpha, precision and
> recall) appropriate in this case? If not, what other measures can
> we use? Is reliability affected by whether naive or expert coders
> are used?
>
> 6. Tools for discourse tagging: what specific features of a tool
> does discourse tagging require? can we just extend tools developed
> eg for syntactic tagging? do we need to develop new tools?
>
> 7. Some paradigms for evaluating dialogue systems take advantage of
> the use of tagged corpora: how are tagging for evaluation purposes and
> discourse tagging related? Are there some discourse tags
> that may be used as evaluation tags or is it advisable to introduce
> another dimension of tagging?
>
> In addition to papers, prospective participants may be asked to do a
> small homework before the workshop to test out various tagging
> schemes. Prospective participants who have developed tools are welcome
> to bring a demo with them.

SIGLEX99
Standardizing Lexical Resources
June 21, 22, 1999
University of Maryland
==========================================================================
FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS
=========================================================================
As our national interests become increasingly global, timely access to
information becomes more and more necessary. Many promising strategies for
information provision rely heavily on lexical resources, including ontologies.
Our next major challenge is providing a standardized lexical resource: an
inventory of word meanings, or senses, associated with criteria for
distinguishing them. Currently there are several different on-line lexical
resources that are being used for English, WordNet, Longman's, the Oxford
English Dictionary, (OED), CIDE from Cambeidge University Press (CUP), Collins,
and Webster's, to name just a few, and they each use very different approaches
to making sense distinctions. Various computational lexicons and related
resources such as ontologies are under development, including the European
PAROLE/SIMPLE lexicons, the Generative Lexicon, the SENSUS ontology,
Mikrokosmos, WordNet, Framenet, and the theory of Lexical Conceptual
Structures. Each takes a very different approach and makes reference to
different underlying theories of semantics. This divergence of resources has
motivated the efforts of the EAGLES Lexical Semantics Group, which is defining
a common format for lexical semantic representation for 12 languages.
http://www.ilc.pi.cnr.it/EAGLES96/rep2/
In a recent evaluation of word sense disambiguation systems, SIGLEX98-SENSEVAL,
(also supported by Euralex, Elsenet, ECRAN and SPARKLE)
"http://www.itri.brighton.ac.uk/events/senseval",
the training data and test data were prepared using a set of Oxford University
Press (OUP) senses. This made it difficult to evaluate the performance of
pre-existing systems that had been built using other lexical resources. A
mapping was made from the OUP senses to WordNet senses, so that WordNet systems
could be included, but this was somewhat problematic as there were far fewer
WordNet senses, and frequently no direct mapping was possible. As do most
dictionaries, OUP and WordNet often make different decisions about how to
structure entries for the same words which are all equally valid, but simply
not compatible. Therefore, it becomes especially difficult to include
pre-existing systems in the evaluation that rely on a pre-existing lexical
resource other than the one used as the Gold Standard. The question that
arises here is the likelihood of making performance preserving mappings between
lexical resources. Is it even possible to treat one lexical resource as a
standard that other resources can be mapped to? (This is true even when
focusing on just one language - the problem simply becomes more explosive when
additional languages become involved.) All of the participants in
SIGLEX98-SENSEVAL agreed that they would prefer evaluations based on running
text rather than corpus instances, but this is only feasible if the Gold
Standard sense inventory being used for tagging can be appropriately mapped
onto several different lexical resources.
The purpose of SIGLEX99 is to directly address the issue of standardization of
lexical resources, and performance-preserving mappings between existing
resources. As a spin-off from SENSEVAL, we are investigating mapping the OUP
SENSEVAL senses onto other lexical resources. We will also be tagging running
text with these senses, and other senses, and will circulate this ahead of time
to workshop participants. There will be several working sessions focussed
around the mappings between lexical resources and the tagged samples.
Languages other than English will also be considered, in connection with
ROMANSEVAL, the subset of SENSEVAL for Romance languages (but with no
restriction to that language family). We will study the relevance of
EuroWordNet (EWN) sense dictinctions for WSD systems, and the applicability of
the Interlingua Language Index (ILI) created within EWN for cross-language
sense-standardization. An issue of particular interest is the mapping of
existing resources to the ILI, which could be an important step towards the
development of a standardized multilingual lexicon for WSD. Such a multilingual
gold standard could in turn be used to semantically tag parallel texts and thus
create standardized corpora useful for many multilingual applications. There
will also be a session to discuss the future of American involvement in EAGLES,
and how the workshop results and conclusions can be incorporated.
We will have invited talks on ontologies and lexical resources, and we welcome
submissions on any areas in lexical semantics and computational lexical
semantics, but particularly on the acquisition and use of lexical resources and
ontologies and on word sense disambiguation. There will be a workshop
proceedings, and as we have done with our last two workshops, we will encourage
partipants to make electronic versions of their papers available on the web
prior to the workshop. Likely invited speakers include Patrick Hanks (Oxford
University Press), Chuck Fillmore (Berkeley), and someone speaking on WordNet
or EuroWordNet and on SIMPLE (the European project for building harmonized
semantic lexicons for 12 European languages).
