Call for Communications: Special Issue on Multilingual Processing
The Journal "Traitement Automatique des Langues" will publish a
Special Issue on Multilingual Processing:
Theme
- ---
Multilingual processing presents special challenges for Natural
Language Processing. Most NLP research and applications concentrate on
one language only and rarely deal with either low-level problems
(multiple codesets, localization vs. internationalization, linguistic
variants) or higher-level problems (organization of multilingual
lexicons and grammars). This special issue will recognize the
importance of adequate low-level processing and multilingual software
organization, describe multilingual applications, and present
approaches to the structuration and development of multilingual
lexicons and grammars.
Topics (non limitative)
- ----
- multilingual text processing
- localization and internationalization
- multilingual information retrieval and extraction
- multilingual MT systems
- multilingual text generation
- multilingual WWW
- multilingual dictionaries and terminological databases
- multilingual ontologies and thesaurii
- multilingual grammars and parsers
Deadline for reception of submissions: January 27, 1998.
