 2nd Call for Papers

	 LINGUISTICALLY INTERPRETED CORPORA (LINC-2000)

		 A workshop to be held at Coling 2000
 the 18th International Conference on Computational Linguistics

		 Luxembourg, 6 August 2000

ORGANIZED BY:

Anne Abeille (IUF & Talana, Paris)
Thorsten Brants (Saarland University)
Hans Uszkoreit (Saarland University and DFKI Saarbruecken)


TOPIC AND MOTIVATION:

Large linguistically interpreted (annotated) corpora are urgently
needed in an increasing number of projects in the field of
computational linguistics. Many groups are currently creating corpus
resources for a variety of languages. These corpora are used for a
broad range of different applications and theoretical
investigations. We aim to bring together these activities in order to
facilitate advanced and efficient corpus annotations which will
provide are-usable resources.

The aim of the workshop is to exchange and propagate research results
in the field of corpus annotation, taking into account different types
of information. The Workshop on Linguistically Interpreted Corpora
focues on
- tools & techniques for syntactic annotation,
- tagging and parsing methods that aim at semi-automatic annotation,
- error detection and correction,
- inter-annotator-agreement,
- representation formats and standards,
- browsing corpora and searching for instances of linguistic phenomena,

PLEASE NOTE: Submissions on semantic annotation should not be submitted 
 to this workshop, but rather to the COLING Workshop on 
	 Semantic Annotation and Intelligent Content.
