Workshop on Language Technology for Less Resourced Languages (LT-LRL 2017)
Call for Papers:
The 8th Language and Technology Conference (LTC 2017), a meeting organized by the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science of the Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań, Poland and the Adam Mickiewicz University Foundation, will take place on November 17-19, 2017. Following the tradition of the past events, it is supported by ELRA, FlaReNet, and META-NET.
Yes, we started 22 years ago! Our tradition goes back to the Language and Technology Awareness Days, a meeting organized in 1995 with the assistance of the European Commission (DG XIII). Among the key speakers were Antonio Zampolli (Italy), Dafydd Gibbon (Germany), Dan Tufiş (Romania), Orest Kossak (Ukraina). Today, we refer to this event as the first LTC. Ten years later, we decided to meet again, and since then the conference is being organized every two years as the “Language & Technology Conference: Human Language Technologies as a Challenge for Computer Science and Linguistics”.
Since the very beginning (1995) the meetings of the LTC series continue to address Human Language Technologies (HLT) as a challenge for computer science, linguistics and related fields. Fostering language technologies and resources remains an important objective in our dynamically changing information-saturated world that motivate us to invite you for joining us at the LTC 2017 in Poznań.
The list of conference topics includes the following (the ordering is not significative):
- communicative intelligence
- computational semantics
- computer modeling of language competence
- corpora-based methods in language engineering
- electronic language resources and tools
- formalization of natural languages
- HLT related policies
- HLT standards and best practices
- HLTs as support for e-learning
- HLTs as support for foreign language teaching
- HLTs as support in solving homeland security problems (technology applications and legal aspects)
- knowledge representation
- language-specific computational challenges for HLTs (especially for languages other than English)
- legal issues connected with HLTs (problems and challenges)
- less resourced languages
- logic programming in natural language processing
- man-machine NL interfaces
- methodological issues in HLT
- NL applications in robotics
- NL based interfaces
- NL understanding by computers
- NL user modeling
- NLP methods in cyber-criminality detection and prevention
- parsing and other forms of NL processing
- question answering
- sentiment, opinion and emotion analysis
- speech processing
- system prototype presentations
- systems with NL competence
- technological aspects of nonverbal linguistics
- text-based information retrieval and extraction
- tools and methodologies for developing multilingual systems
- translation enhancement tools
- validation in all areas of HLTs
- visionary papers in the field of HLT
- WordNet-like ontologies
