                            ** CALL FOR PAPERS **

                        4th International Workshop on
          Linguistically Interpreted Corpora (LINC-03)

       A workshop to be held at EACL-03
                 the 11th Conference of the European Chapter
               of the Association for Computational Linguistics

    ORGANIZED BY:

    Anne Abeillé (Paris 7 & LLF, Paris)
    Silvia Hansen (Saarland University, Saarbrücken)
    Hans Uszkoreit (Saarland University & DFKI, Saarbrücken)

    TOPIC AND MOTIVATION:

    Large linguistically interpreted corpora play an increasingly
    important role for machine learning, evaluation,
    psycholinguistics as well as theoretical linguistics. Many
    groups have started to create corpus resources annotated with
    morphological, syntactic, semantic and discourse
    information for a variety of languages. Linguistic annotation
    may consist of morphological analyses, trees, dependencies,
    grammatical relations, word senses, (co)references, information
    structure, semantic representations, discourse relations
    and other types of linguistic information.

    We aim to bring together these activities in order to facilitate
    advanced and efficient corpus annotations which will provide
    re-usable resources.

    The workshop will also provide a forum for reports on the
    scientific and technological exploitation of interpreted corpora
    in general, computational or psycholinguistics. Such reports
    on exploitation results are valuable for the comparison of
    alternative approaches and will thus serve as feedback to
    ongoing and new corpus annotation efforts.

    We invite submissions of papers constituting substantial,
    original, and unpublished work on all aspects of linguistically
    interpreted corpora, including, but not limited to:
    - creation of practical annotation schemes
    - efficient annotation techniques including automation
    - tools supporting corpus conversions
    - consistency checking and validation
    - tools and methods for searching and browsing
    - qualitative and quantitative studies based on
      linguistically interpreted corpora
    - technological advances achieved by the
      exploitation of interpreted corpora
