WORKSHOP
ON
MULTI-LAYER CORPUS-BASED ANALYSIS
July 30 - August 1, 2001
Iasi, Romania
ORGANIZERS
Dan Cristea, University "A.I. Cuza", Iasi, Romania
Nancy Ide, Vassar College, USA
Daniel Marcu, ISI, University of Southern California
Massimo Poesio, University of Edinburgh
Corpora annotated for a variety of linguistic features are
becoming increasingly available. Part of speech annotated
corpora are commonplace; treebanks in a variety of
languages are available or under development; and corpora
annotated for various features of discourse, including
co-reference and discourse structure, are also available
(e.g., the MUC corpora). In addition, large speech corpora
annotated with phonetic transcriptions and prosodic
analysis and various multi-lingual aligned corpora are
available from centers such as the Linguistic Data
Consortium and the European Language Resources
Association.
This workshop will address issues of using corpora
annotated for multiple layers (e.g., syntax and discourse,
prosody and part of speech, etc.) or combining multiple
layers of annotation in natural language analysis. We
invite submissions on the following topics:
o Research that exploits information on different
linguistic levels;
o Consideration and demonstration of the ways in which
information from different layers can be used in
automatic language processing;
o Compatibility of corpora annotated for different
linguistic layers, including means to harmonize
different annotation types and levels;
o Tools for exploiting different levels of annotation.
The workshop will be held in conjunction with the EUROLAN
2001 Summer School on Creation and Exploitation of
Annotated Language Resources, to be held in Iasi, Romania
from 30 July - August 11, 2001. Because EUROLAN 2001 is
concerned with a wide variety of types of linguistic
annotation, the workshop will serve to complement the
content of lectures and tutorials that are part of the
School's main program. Registration for the workshop is
included in the Summer School registration fee.
SUBMISSION INFORMATION:
Papers should report on original work not previously
presented elsewhere. The workshop is intended to provide a
forum for discussion and a means to receive feedback for
future development; therefore, papers describing both
completed work and work-in-progress are acceptable.
Submissions of 3500-5000 words should be sent via email to
ide at cs.vassar.edu with the subject line "EUROLAN 2001
WORKSHOP SUBMISSION". Submissions in Postscript, PDF, or
plain ASCII text formats are acceptable.
