           RECENT ADVANCES IN DEPENDENCY GRAMMAR

                    August 28th, 2004

	To be held in conjunction with COLING 2004
				
         [ http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/conf/dg2004/ ]

    ** Extended Poster/paper submission deadline: April 28 **

Over the last years, there has been a strong revival of interest for
dependency grammar, following up on, and contributing to, the recent
advances in formal grammar and in computational linguistics.
Dependency grammar is, however, more of a "perspective" on grammar
than a singular framework, which has led to a great variety
of proposals making this perspective more concrete.

The last workshop dedicated purely to dependency grammar was the
Dependency Grammar workshop organized in conjunction with ACL-COLING
1998 in Montreal [ http://www.olst.umontreal.ca/Eng/DGPapers.html ].
The goal of the current workshop is to offer a dedicated forum where
the community can present and assess recent advances in dependency
grammar, discuss issues, progress and perspectives, and to foster new
collaborations.

To make optimal use of the workshop format, we plan to mix paper
presentations with a poster session (1.30h), and allow for enough
time for discussion around paper presentations (25+10).

We would like to invite submissions to the workshop on any theme
relating to dependency grammars.
