Abstract:

This book addresses the interests of a large community of researchers in
the fields of XML-based annotation techniques and corpus-based language
technology. It covers the most significant recent developments in this
field, from multi-layered mark-up and standards to theoretical formalisms
to applications. The contributions are based on research projects at
international level in text technology, computational linguistics,
hypertext modeling and in the domain of standards and tools for language
resources. Core topics are: strategies for multi-layered document modeling
and processing, mark-up at different levels for textual resources, and
text-technological information modeling. 

The sections of the book offer an exhaustive coverage of many of the
current topics in the fields concerned, especially: Multi-layered Markup;
Markup Languages and Language Resources; Markup and Text Types; Markup
Languages and Hypertext; Markup and Formalization. 

The book may be seen as a contribution to very ambitious goals, connected
to the development of an 'Annotation Science' (a term recently coined by
Nancy Ide), for example the interoperability of different types of
linguistic and textual resources, of corpora and processing tools, as well
as the development of methods and annotation techniques applicable to
multiple modalities and languages. 

Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics

This Year the LINGUIST List hopes to raise $65,000. This money will go to help 
keep the List running by supporting all of our Student Editors for the coming year.

Drive 2010 and join us for a great journey!

There are many ways to donate to LINGUIST!

You can donate right now using our secure credit card form at  
https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm

Alternatively you can also pledge right now and pay later. To do so, go to: 
https://linguistlist.org/donation/pledge/pledge1.cfm

For all information on donating and pledging, including information on how to 
donate by check, money order, or wire transfer, please visit:

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return 
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact 
your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple 
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without 
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company 
operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
