FINAL Call for Paper Submissions
COLING 2010
Workshop on Multiword Expressions:
from Theory to Applications (MWE 2010)
http://multiword.sf.net/mwe2010
endorsed by the Special Interest Group on the Lexicon of the
Association for Computational Linguistics (SIGLEX)
Beijing, China
***Submission deadline: May 30, 2010 at 23:59 (GMT-7)***
=================================================================
Multiword Expressions (MWEs) are a ubiquitous component of natural
languages and appear steadily on a daily basis, both in specialized
and in general-purpose communication. While easily mastered by native
speakers, their interpretation poses a major challenge for automated
analysis due to their flexible and heterogeneous nature. Therefore,
the automated processing of MWEs is desirable for any natural language
application that involves some degree of semantic interpretation,
e.g., Machine Translation, Information Extraction, and Question
Answering.
In spite of the recent advances in the field, there is a wide range of
open problems that prevent MWE treatment techniques from full
integration in current NLP systems. In MWE'2010, we will be interested
in major challenges in the overall process of MWE treatment, asking
for original research related but not limited to the following topics:
* MWE resources: Although underused in most current state-of-the-art
approaches, resources are key for developing real-world
applications capable of interpreting MWEs. We call for papers
describing the process of building MWE resources, constructed both
manually and automatically from text corpora; we are also
interested in assessing the usability of such resources in various
MWE tasks.
* Hybrid approaches: We invite research on integrating heterogeneous
MWE treatment techniques and resources in NLP applications. Such
hybrid approaches can aim, for example, at the combination of
results from symbolic and statistical approaches, at the fusion of
manually built and automatically extracted resources, or at the
design of language learning techniques.
* Domain adaptation: Real-world NLP applications need to be robust to
deal with texts coming from different domains. We thus call for
papers assessing the performance of MWE methods across domains or
describing domain adaptation techniques for MWEs.
* Multilingualism: Parallel and comparable corpora are gaining
popularity as a resource for automatic MWE discovery and
treatment. We are also interested in the integration of MWE
processing in multilingual applications such as machine
translation and multilingual information retrieval, as well as in
porting existing monolingual MWE approaches to new languages.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
We invite submissions of original and unpublished work as full
papers. All submissions must follow the format of COLING 2010
proceedings, available at
http://www.coling-2010.org/SubmissionGuideline.htm.
We strongly advise the use of the provided Word or LaTeX template
files. Full papers should not exceed eight (8) pages for the content,
with one (1) extra page for references, thus the total lenght should
not exceed nine pages (9) inclusive of references. Reviewing will be
double-blind, and thus no author information should be included in the
papers; self-reference should be avoided as well.
Submission will be electronic in PDF format through the workshop START
system, available soon at
https://www.softconf.com/coling2010/mwe2010/.
The papers must be submitted no later than May 30, 2010 at 23:59 PDT
(GMT-7). No deadline extensions will be granted.
Submitted papers that do not conform to these requirements will be
rejected without review. Accepted papers will appear in the workshop
proceedings and will be presented orally.
