Call for Papers on Linking, Integrating and Extending Wordnets

Special Issue of Linguistic Issues in Language Technology (LiLT)

http://csli-lilt.stanford.edu/ojs/index.php/LiLT/index

The focus of this special issue is on linking wordnets together into a
coherent whole. In particular we focus on the Open Multilingual Wordnet (OMW),
which has brought many wordnets together, and the Collaborative Interlingual
Index (CILI) which provides a way to link and share new synsets without going
through the Princeton Wordnet (PWN).

The issue will consist of two kinds of papers:

(i) invited papers dealing with the open multilingual wordnet, collaborative
interlingual index and issues of dealing with multiple formats.

(ii) open papers describing individual wordnets and any issues in linking them
- extensions that cannot (yet) be linked, coordination problems. Wordnets must
be part of the open multilingual wordnet: released under an open license and
formatted as LMF.

See http://compling.hss.ntu.edu.sg/iliomw/join for more details. 

Papers on individual wordnets should fit within 10 pages. This limit can be
extended for papers covering multiple languages and/or wordnets. Papers will
follow a shared format with sections on the current state of a described
wordnet (including basic statistics and canonical citation), a brief history
of (methods of) its construction as well as peculiarities of its structure and
a review of uses and applications. Details will be made available after we
have reviewed the expressions of interest.

If you are interested in submitting a paper, please email a short (500 word)
expression of interest to the editorial board at wn.lilt at gmail.com by Jan
31st, 2017.

Jan 31 2017: Expression of Interest
Apr 1 2017: Initial submission
July 1 2017: Reviews returned to authors
