Full Title: Language Resources and Evaluation
Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics
Call Deadline: 01-Jul-2010
Language Resources and Evaluation Journal
Special Issue on 'Collaboratively Constructed Language Resources'
http://www.ukp.tu-darmstadt.de/scientific-community/special-issue-language-resources-and-evaluation/
KEYWORDS
Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Mechanical Turk, Games with a Purpose, Folksonomies,
Twitter, Social Networks
TOPICS OF INTEREST
Specific topics include but are not limited to:
- Analysis of collaboratively constructed resources, such as wiki-based
resources, folksonomies, Twitter, or social networks;
- Using special features of collaboratively constructed resources to
create novel resource types, for example revision-based corpora, simplified
versions of resources, etc.;
- Analyzing the structure of collaboratively constructed resources related
to their use in computational linguistics and language technology;
- Interoperability of collaboratively constructed resources with
conventional language resources and between themselves;
- Mining social and collaborative content for constructing structured
language resources (e.g. lexical semantic resources) and the corresponding
tools;
- Mining multilingual information from collaboratively constructed resources;
- Game-based approaches to resource creation;
- Mechanical Turk for building language resources;
- Quality and reliability of collaboratively constructed language resources.
We would also like to welcome papers outlining the challenges related to
using collaboratively constructed resources in computational linguistics
and language technology, and spanning the cross-disciplinary boundaries to
discourse analysis, social network
analysis, and artificial intelligence.

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!
