Multilingual Language Resources and Interoperability

Topics

We welcome submissions on recent and innovative work involving such multilingual ressources. Submissions should focus on any of the following topics:

  • models for language/application-independent linguistic data,
  • multilingual linguistic data acquisition and maintenance,
  • interaction between different kinds of resources (lexicons, corpora, ontologies, etc.) for different languages,
  • lexical architectures to link data between languages
  • Internationalization of annotations and representations
  • use of linguistic resources for applications in a multilingual context
  • reuse of existing lexical resources in a specific multilingual application
  • human use of lexical resources in a multilingual context
  • quality evaluation of multilingual data
  • standardization issues

We welcome submissions concerning multilingual language resources of ANY kind. However, special attention will be given to submissions presenting uses of XML to achieve multilingual interoperability. Moreover, as the workshop takes place in Australia, special attention will also be given to submissions on resources involving Asian or Australian lesser-used languages.

The intent of the workshop is not only to review academic developments but also to hear from industry, how these resources are used in new technology developments and what the current needs are in the field. Presentations, project notes and position papers are welcome.
