CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
*********************************************************************
2nd Workshop on Statistical Parsing of
Morphology-Rich Languages (SPMRL 2011)

<https://sites.google.com/site/spmrl2011/>

Collocated with IWPT 2011 (October 5-7, 2011)
http://www.dcu.ie/conferences/iwpt/


Workshop date: October 6, 2011 (afternoon)
Location: Dublin City University, 
Early registration through September 15, 2011


-----------------------------------------------
The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers interested in
parsing languages with richer morphological structures than in English,
and to provide a forum for discussing the challenges associated with
parsing such languages and sharing strategies towards their solutions.
We are interested in presentations relating to actively studied areas of
research including the adaptation of existing parsing techniques to new
languages, the design of new models that take morphological information
into account, the implementation of models that allow robust statistics
to be obtained in the face of high word-form variation, and so on.

You are cordially invited to attend the talks and to participate in the
discussion.

Registration is included in IWPT's registration fee.  The IWPT 2011
registration form has all information about registration deadlines and
fees.  <http://www.dcu.ie/conferences/iwpt/registration.shtml>

DISCUSSION PANEL
--------------------------------
The main topics of discussion will be oriented towards the objective and
the design of a Shared Task involving parsing with non-gold input
(e.g. non-gold tokenization, morphology, POS,...). As in our previous
panels, we hope for a very animated discussion and of course, we expect
many interventions from the general audience.
