First Workshop on Computational Terminology
COMPUTERM'98
WHEN: August 15, 1998 (immediately following ACL/COLING-98)
WHERE: University of Montreal, Montreal (Quebec, Canada)
DESCRIPTION
The workshop will provide a forum to bring together researchers from
the fields of computational linguistics, terminology, automated
translation, information retrieval and lexicography who share an
interest in computational aspects of terminology processing:
acquisition, extraction, indexing, machine-aided thesaurus building,
dictionary construction, etc. The aim of the workshop is to stimulate
the exchange of innovative ideas and results of diverse aspects of
automatic term processing in order to bridge the gap between these
fields.
TOPICS
The topics of the workshop include (but are not limited to):
- Construction of terminology resources
- Semi- or automatic acquisition of terms
- Semi- or automatic acquisition of conceptual knowledge
- Thesaurus construction and maintenance
- Use of terminology resources (term banks, thesauri,
specialized lexicons,...)
- Terms in information retrieval (stemming, automatic indexing,
query expansion, ...)
- Multi-lingual terminological resources for cross-language IR
- Terminology management in machine-aided translation
- Terminology and NLP (parsing, tagging, text understanding,
generation,...)
- Terminology processing for other applications
SUBMISSIONS
