First Call for Papers LINGUISTICALLY INTERPRETED CORPORA (LINC-2001) A workshop to be held at the occasion of the Annual Meeting of Societas Linguistica Europaea Leuven, 29 August 2001 http://wwwling.arts.kuleuven.ac.be/sle2001/ ORGANIZED BY: Eva Hajicova (Charles University, Prague) PROGRAMME COMMITTEE: Eva Hajicova (chair) Anne Abeille (Universit� Paris 7) Thorsten Brants (University of the Saarland, XEROX PARC) Leonid Iomdin (Russian Academy of Sciences) Brigitte Krenn (Austrian Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence (D6FAI) Geert-Jan Kruijff (University of the Saarland) Geoffrey Sampson (University of Sussex) 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 promote and facilitate first of all advanced and efficient exploitation of annotated corpora. 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 focuses on - exploitation of annotated corpora - tools & techniques for syntactic annotation and browsing in corpora - tagging and parsing methods that aim at semi-automatic annotation, - error detection and correction, - inter-annotator-agreement, - representation formats and standards, SCHEDULE: May 30, 2001: 1 page abstracts submission deadline June 20, 2001: notification of acceptance June 30, 2001: publication of workshop program Autust 29, 2001: workshop SUBMISSIONS: Please send submissions in English electronically in Postscript, PDF, Word document or plain ASCII format to the address below (if necessary, you can also submit a hard copy by mail or by fax). <mirovskyMail to author|Respond to list|Read more issues|LINGUIST home page|Top of issueufal.mff.cuni.cz> Jiri Mirovsky Center for Computational Linguistics Faculty of Mathematics and Physics Charles University Malostranske nam. 25 118 00 Praha 1 Czech Republic Fax: 00420-2-2191 4252
