CBA-2008: Call for Papers CORPUS-BASED APPROACHES TO COREFERENCE RESOLUTION IN ROMANCE LANGUAGES Deadline for abstract submission: Thursday September 25, 2008 Workshop location: Universitat de Barcelona. Workshop Email : cba2008@ub.edu DESCRIPTION ---------------------- Universitat de Barcelona and Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya begin a series of workshops devoted to Corpus-based Approaches to Discourse Analysis CBA Workshops. We are particularly interested in innovative perspectives on the use and exploitation of corpora in going one step beyond the state of the art. The first workshop in this series, CBA-2008, will focus on Coreference Resolution in Romance Languages. This workshop aims to exploit annotated data in order to make the most of machine learning techniques for coreference resolution. For coreference we understand identifying the full chain of mentions for each entity in the discourse, rather than pairs of antecedent-anaphor. We believe there is a need to bring together linguists and computer scientists, and we invite unpublished contributions which relate to issues of this field with a special emphasis on though not limited to Romance languages. Topics of interest: - Exploring techniques/strategies for collecting better data in this area - Studies of relevant features for coreference resolution - Studies of knowledge sources for coreference resolution and strategies for inferring useful linguistic cues - ML algorithms of coreference resolution - Learning features from annotated/raw corpora - Portability of English coreference resolution systems to Romance languages Further information is available on the web http://stel.ub.edu/cba2008 Registration is free!
