Meeting Description: 

Note: This conference is only open to U.S. Citizens

The National Intelligence University (NIU) of the Office of the Director of
National Intelligence (ODNI) invites participation in a conference on Human
Language Technology (HLT) Tools and methods for processing OSINT information
such as unclassified documents, web pages, video, etc. within the IC and other
government agencies.

The goal is to provide an opportunity for those who need, develop and fund tools
and other resources to exchange information on requirements, capabilities and
future plans. Linguists' expertise is critical to the success of computational
endeavors such as these.
