Meeting Description:

In recent years there has been a renewed interest in the linguistic aspects of
accessing, extracting, representing, modeling and transferring knowledge.
Numerous tools for the automatic extraction of terms, term variants,
knowledge-rich contexts, definitions, semantic relations, and taxonomies from
specialized corpora have been developed for a number of languages, and new
theoretical approaches have emerged as potential frameworks for the study of
specialized communication. However, the building of adequate knowledge models
for practitioners (e.g. experts, researchers, translators, teachers etc.), on
the one hand, and NLP applications (including cross-language, cross-domain,
cross-device, multi-modal, multi-platform applications), on the other, still
remains a challenge.

We invite researchers from terminology, linguistics, NLP, cognitive studies,
psycholinguistics and related fields to present theoretical and applied
studies in terminology and knowledge structures, whereby knowledge is
understood not only at the macrostructural level, as a complex network of
interrelated concepts , but also at the microstructural level, as individual
multi-faceted nodes of meaning with cognitive, linguistic, contextual, and
socio-cultural layers. Consequently, we particularly welcome approaches with a
cross-language, cross-domain and/or interdisciplinary scope.


Call for Papers:

Topics:

- Linguistic, cognitive, psycholinguistic, sociolinguistic, computational and
hybrid approaches to knowledge modelling
- Construction of terminological knowledge bases
- Terminology modelling for MT
- Knowledge extraction from user-generated content
- Frame-based approaches to knowledge extraction and representation
- Building knowledge resources for less-resourced domains and languages
- Term variation and knowledge representations
- NLP applications for terminology management

We invite contributions of either long papers (8 pages + 2 of references, in
LREC format) or poster/demo proposals (4 pages +2 of references , in LREC
format), on theoretical issues, empirical studies, practical applications.

Important Dates: 

10 February 2016: Paper submissions due
10 March 2016: Paper notification of acceptance
2 April 2016: Camera-ready papers due
23 May 2016: Workshop
