Final CALL FOR PAPERS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
TAPD 2000
2nd Workshop on 'Tabulation in Parsing and Deduction'
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
September 19-21 2000
Vigo, Spain
Sponsored by University of Vigo
with the support of
Caixa Vigo e Ourense
Logic Programing Associates
http://coleweb.dc.fi.udc.es/tapd2000/
Following TAPD'98 in Paris (France) next TAPD event will be held in
Vigo (Spain) in September, 2000. The conference will be previous to
SEPLN 2000 http://coleweb.dc.fi.udc.es/sepln2000/ , the conference
of the Spanish Society for Natural Language Processing.
MOTIVATIONS:
Tabulation techniques are becoming a common way to deal with highly
redundant computations occurring, for instance, in Natural Language
Processing, Logic Programming, Deductive Databases, or Abstract
Interpretation, and related to phenomena such as ambiguity,
non-determinism or domain ordering.
Different approaches, including for example Chart Parsing, Magic-Set
rewriting, Memoization, and Dynamic Programming, have been proposed
whose key idea is to keep traces of computations to achieve
computation sharing and loop detection. Tabulation also offers more
flexibility to investigate new parsing or proof strategies and to
represent ambiguity by shared structures.
The first objective of this workshop is to compare and discuss these
different approaches. The second objective is to present tabulation
and tabular systems to potential users in different application
areas such as natural language processing, picture parsing, genome
analysis, or complete deduction techniques.
TOPICS (not exclusive):
-- Tabulation Techniques:
Chart Parsing, Tabling, Memoization, Dynamic Programming,
Magic Set, Generic Fix-Point Algorithms
-- Applications:
Parsing, Generation, Logic Programming, Deductive Databases,
Abstract Interpretation, Deduction in Knowledge Bases, Theorem Proving
-- Static Analysis:
Improving tabular evaluation
-- Parsing or resolution strategies.
-- Efficiency issues:
Dealing with large tables (structure sharing, term indexing),
Execution models, Exploiting the domain ordering (subsumption).
-- Shared structures (parse or proof forest):
Formal analysis, representation and processing.
WORKSHOP FORMAT:
The workshop will be a 3-day event that provides a forum for
individual presentations of the accepted contributions as well as
group discussions.
INVITED SPEAKERS:
Bharat Jayaraman -- Univ. of New York at Buffalo, US
I.V. Ramakrishnan -- Univ. New York at Stony Brook, US
SUBMISSION PROCEDURE:
Authors are invited to submit before April 28 a 4-page position
paper or abstract concerning a theoretical contribution or a system to
be presented. Due to tight time constraints, submission and reviewing
will be handled exclusively electronically (LaTeX, PostScript, dvi or
ascii format). Submission should include the title, authors' names,
affiliations, addresses, and e-mail.
The submissions must be sent to David S. Warren (warren at cs.sunysb.edu) in
gziped encoded postscript.

______________
The theme of the conference is "Content-Based Multimedia Information
Access". The conference scope will range from the traditional processing of
text documents to the rapidly growing field of automatic indexing and
retrieval of images and speech and, more generally, to all processing of
audio-visual and multimedia information on various distribution venues,
including the Net. The conference is of interest for several scientific
communities, including Information Retrieval, Natural Language Processing,
Spoken Language Processing, Computer Vision, Human-Computer Interaction and
Digital Libraries. RIAO 2000 will, thereby, serve as a forum for
cross-discipline initiatives and innovative applications.
RIAO 2000 will present recent scientific progress, demonstrations of
prototypes resulting from this research as well as the most innovative
products now appearing on the market.
The Conference Advance Program is highlighted by contributions of authors
from 26 countries. The program includes 2 invited speakers, 3 panel
sessions, 3 plenary sessions, 8 poster sessions and 16 oral sessions. Among
all sessions are 145 papers (75 oral and 70 poster presentations),
providing a unique opportunity to present and discuss in depth the
state-of-the-art in this rapidly growing scientific and technological field.
There will also be many innovative application demonstrations presented by
companies from different countries. The application committee has already
selected about 20 of them covering various applications such as
crosslingual English-Arabic Internet search, recognition of printed and
handwritten texts, television archives retrieval, sign language indexing,
machine translation, etc.
