Twente Workshop on Language Technology 6 TWLT 6 "PARSING NATURAL LANGUAGE" Final Announcement +=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= Date: 16 and 17 December 1993 Location: "De Vrijhof", Enschede, the Netherlands ********* TWLT 6 is co-sponsored by ACL SIGPARSE, the Special Interest Group on Parsing Technologies of the Association of Computational Linguistics (ACL). ********* TWLT This is the sixth Twente Workshop on Language Technology organised in Twente, a beautiful region in the Netherlands. Previous work- shops have been on Tomita's Algorithm, Linguistic Engineering, Connectionist Natural Language Processing, Pragmatics in Language Technology and Natural Language Interfaces. In this international workshop researchers on parsing technologies in computational linguistics and those working at the borderline of computer science and computational linguistics will get the opportunity to present their research and discuss developments in parsing tech- nology. About TWLT6 Topics of TWLT6 include: parsing for spelling correction, head- corner parsing and unification, the logical structure of language, practical comparisons between parallel parsing algorithms, tree adjoining grammar parsing, Definite Clause Grammar parsing, multiple agents processing, comparison of ALE and PATR, parsing ill-formed input, syntactic and semantic information from punc- tuation, et cetera. The proceedings of the workshop will be available during the workshop. TWLT 6 Program Thursday, December 16, 1993: ---------------------------- 10.15 Registration and coffee 10.55 A.
