[Lexicog] Deadline Extension: 4th Workshop on Linked Data in Linguistics (LDL-2015, Beijing, July 31, 2015)

Thu May 7 19:51:27 UTC 2015

4th Workshop on Linked Data in Linguistics (LDL-2015): Resources and  
Applications
=================================================================================

collocated with ACL-IJCNLP 2015, Beijing, July 31st, 2015,  
http://ldl2015.linguistic-lod.org

*Deadline extended to Thursday 14th May*

The substantial growth in the quantity, diversity and complexity of  
linguistic data accessible on the Web has led to many new and interesting  
research areas in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and linguistics.  
However, resource interoperability represents a major challenge that still  
needs to be addressed, in particular if information from different sources  
is combined. With its fourth instantiation, the Linked Data in Linguistics  
workshop continues to provide a major forum to discuss the creation of  
linguistic resources on the web using linked data principles, as well as  
issues of interoperability, distribution protocols, access and integration  
of language resources and natural language processing pipelines developed  
on this basis.

As a result of the preceding workshops, a considerable number of resources  
is now available in the Linguistic Linked Open Data (LLOD) cloud. LDL-2015  
will thus specifically welcome papers addressing the usage aspect of  
Linked Data and related technologies in NLP, linguistics and neighboring  
fields, such as Digital Humanities.

Organized by the interdisciplinary Open Linguistics Working Group, the LDL  
workshop series is open to researchers from a wide range of disciplines,  
including (computational) linguistics and NLP, but also the Semantic Web,  
linguistic typology, corpus linguistics, terminology and lexicography. In  
2015, we plan to increase the involvement of the LIDER project and the  
LD4LT community group, to build on their efforts to facilitate the use of  
linked data and language resources for commercial applications, and to  
continue the success of LIDER‘s roadmapping workshop series in engagement  
with enterprise.

Topics of Interest
==================

We invite presentations of algorithms, methodologies, experiments, use  
cases, project proposals and position papers regarding the creation,  
publication or application of linguistic data collections and their  
linking with other resources, as well as descriptions of such data. This  
includes, but is not limited to, the following:

Resources:
----------
- Modelling linguistic data and metadata with OWL and/or RDF.
- Ontologies for linguistic data and metadata collections as well as  
cross-lingual retrieval.
- Descriptions of data sets following Linked Data principles.
- Legal and social aspects of Linguistic Linked Open Data.
- Best practices for the publication and linking of multilingual knowledge  
resources.

Applications:
------------
- Applications of such data, other ontologies or linked data from any  
subdiscipline of linguistics or NLP.
- The role of (Linguistic) Linked Open Data to address challenges of  
multilinguality and interoperability.
- Application and applicability of (Linguistic) Linked Open Data for  
knowledge extraction, machine translation and other NLP tasks.
- NLP contributions to (Linguistic) Linked Open Data.

We invite both long (8 pages and 2 pages of references, formatted  
according to the ACL-IJCNLP guidelines) and short papers (4 pages and 2  
pages of references) representing original research, innovative approaches  
and resource types, use cases or in-depth discussions. Short papers may  
also represent project proposals, work in progress or data set  
descriptions.

Dataset Description Papers
==========================

In addition to full papers and regular short papers, authors may submit  
short papers with a dataset descriptions describing a resource’s  
availability, published location and key statistics (such as size). Such  
papers do not need to show a novel method for the creation or publishing  
of the data but instead will be judged on the quality, usefulness and  
clarity of description given in the paper.

Important Dates

Paper submission: May 14th, 2015
Notification of Acceptance: June 5th, 2015
Camera-Ready Copy: June 21st, 2015
Workshop: July 31st, 2015
