Following Barcelona (1990), Montpellier (1993), Rome (1995), Nice
(1998), Lausanne (2000), Saint-Malo (2002) the 7th International
Conference on the Statistical Analysis of Textual Data will be held in
Louvain-la-Neuve (Belgium), on March 10-12, 2004. This biennial
conference, which has constantly been gaining in importance since its
first occurrence, is open to all scholars working in the vast field of
textual data analysis; ranging from lexicography to the analysis of
political discourse, from documentary research to marketing research,
from computational linguistics to sociolinguistics, from the
processing of data to content analysis. After the success of the
previous meetings, the three-day conference in Belgium will continue
to provide a workshop-style forum through technical paper sessions,
invited talks, and panel discussions.
