TIA-2001

4th meeting " Terminology and Artificial Intelligence "
3-4 May 2001, Nancy, France

Due to the availability of ever-increasing amount of information
institutions, companies and laboratories are facing new problems
related in particular to scale effects and the diversity of technical
texts. A full range of tasks, `from accessing text corpora to
processing lexical data, is now being entrusted to terminology. As a
result, terminology has to enrich and strengthen its links with
related disciplines, including linguistics, knowledge engineering and
information sciences. Thus, terminological work makes use of
linguistic and /or numeric techniques to process natural language
items (especially terms) and of artificial intelligence techniques for
their formalization.

These techniques share a number of methods and objec tives as well as
a common goal:

- the same starting point: corpus-based data acquistion;
- the same objectives: corpus-based domain modeling with or
without formalization, depending on the type of application
(artificial intelligence or not);
- the same goal: production of terminological resources
(machine-readable dictionaries for machine translation,
indexing, filtering); ontologies, knowledge-based systems,
corporate memories.

The TIA Conference aims at promoting convergence and synergy among
such disciplines in order to develop and evaluate corpus-processing
methodologies, requiring refined natural language processing and
artificial intelligence techniques.  The end results of those
investigations should help build relevant terminological data for
specific applications on a systematic basis.

The 4th TIA Conference will be an opportunity to explore some of the
unsolved problems raised in corpus-based acquisition of terminological
data, in the analysis of lexical behavior in specialized corpora, in
knowledge modeling and formalization of the resulting data.

You are invited to propose a paper in the following topics:

- Meaning theories and the question of specialized texts;
- Terminology and ontologies;
- Exploitation of corpus-based term extraction;
- Terminology and knowledge modeling / formalization
- Terminological knowledge bases;
- Terminological resources for information retrieval;
- Problems of multilingual terminology;
- Reusability in linguistic and knowledge engineering
- Tools and applications.

This TIA Conference, which follows TIA'95 (Villetaneuse), TIA'97
(Toulouse) and TIA'99 (Nantes), is organized by the TIA Working Group
http://www.biomath.jussieu.fr/TIA/ . This group gathers researchers
in linguistics, artificial intelligence and natural language
processing. It was created to allow a confrontation between the
theoretical and methodological frameworks as well as between the
practices developed in each discipline. Submitted papers (in French or
in English) will be reviewed by an international program committee
composed of members of the TIA Working Group and of invited
experts.

Appel à communication
TIA-2001

Quatrième rencontre " Terminologie et Intelligence
Artificielle "
3-4 mai 2001, Nancy,


Sous l'effet de l'information en réseau, institutions,
entreprises et laboratoires se trouvent aujourd'hui
confrontés aux problèmes considérables posés par la taille
et la diversité des documents spécialisés. Accéder à ces
corpus textuels, les filtrer, les traiter, les stocker, les
implémenter sur des systèmes informatiques, telles sont,
entre autres, les tâches auxquelles doit répondre la
terminologie. Devant de tels enjeux, la terminologie, en
tant que discipline, doit établir des relations coopératives
avec un ensemble de disciplines allant de la linguistique à
l'ingénierie des connaissances en passant par les sciences
de l'information.

La pratique terminologique fait notamment appel à des
techniques linguistiques et /ou numériques pour manipuler
les unités de la langue naturelle (en particulier les
terminologies) et à des techniques d'intelligence
artificielle pour la formalisation de ces données.

Ces techniques partagent des méthodes, des objectifs et une
même finalité :

- même point de départ : elles partent de corpus pour
l'acquisition de données linguistiques destinées à la
constitution de terminologies ;
- même objectif : la modélisation de domaines à partir de
corpus, sans formalisation dans le cas d'une production
linguistique, avec formalisation du domaine dans le cas
d'une application requérant les techniques de l'I.A ;
- même visée applicative : ressources terminologiques,
dictionnaires électroniques pour la traduction automatique,
pour l'indexation, pour le filtrage, etc., ontologies,
systèmes à base de connaissances, mémoires d'entreprise
(dans le cadre d'applications relevant de l'I.A).

L'objectif de la conférence TIA est de faire émerger les
convergences et les coopérations possibles entre ces
disciplines pour élaborer et tester des méthodes de travail
sur corpus, associées à des techniques de traitement
automatique de la langue et d'intelligence artificielle,
afin de constituer, de manière systématique, les données
terminologiques pertinentes en fonction des applications.

Les quatrièmes rencontres TIA serviront à explorer les
nombreuses questions restées ouvertes en matière
d'acquisition de connaissances terminologiques à partir de
corpus, d'analyse du fonctionnement lexicologique en corpus
spécialisé, de modélisation et de formalisation de ces
connaissances, toujours dans le cas d'applications précises.


Vous êtes invité à y participer en proposant une
communication sur l'un des thèmes ci-dessous :

- Théories du sens et la question des textes spécialisés
- Terminologie et ontologies
- Exploitation de l'extraction de termes en corpus
- Terminologie et modélisation / formalisation des
connaissances
- Bases de connaissances terminologiques
- Ressources terminologiques pour la recherche d'information

- Problèmes de la terminologie multilingue
- Réutilisabilité en ingénierie linguistique et ingénierie
des connaissances
- Outils et applications

Le Groupe TIA (http:/ /www.biomath.jussieu.fr/TIA/), est
organisateur de cette conférence qui fait suite aux
conférences TIA'95 (Villetaneuse), TIA'97 (Toulouse) et
TIA'99 (Nantes). Fondé sous l'égide du PRC-IA et de l'AFIA
en 1994, à présent groupe AFIA/PRC-I3, ce groupe rassemble
des chercheurs en linguistique, en intelligence artificielle
et en traitement automatique des langues. Il a été créé pour
permettre une confrontation entre les cadres théoriques et
méthodologiques ainsi qu'entre les pratiques développées
dans chaque discipline.

Les propositions de communications (en anglais ou en
français) seront soumises à un comité de programme
international constitué des membres du groupe TIA et
d'experts des domaines concernés.
