9th INTEX/NooJ Workshop
 

CALL

INTEX/NooJ is a linguistic development environment that includes tools to construct and maintain large-coverage lexical resources, morphological and syntactic grammars. Dictionaries and grammars are applied to texts in order to locate morphological, lexical and syntactic patterns, remove ambiguities, tag words and extract semantic entities.

INTEX/NooJ can build lemmatized concordances of large texts from Finite-State Automata and Transducers, Context-Free grammars and Recursive Transition Networks, and can accordingly perform transformation operations on texts in cascade to recusively annotate texts, which gives it the power of a Turing machine. INTEX/NooJ is used as a linguistic development platform, an information retrieval system, a terminological extractor, as well as to teach linguistics and computational linguistics to students.

As in the previous workshops, this meeting will be the opportunity for INTEX and NooJ users, as well as other researchers interested in NLP, to meet and to exchange their experience of development, research or teaching, including computational morphology, lexicon and quantitative linguistics. It will also be the occasion to present and discover the recent developments of NooJ.

Send before March 15, 2006 a one-page abstract to nooj_at_matf.bg.ac.yu. The abstract, in French or in English, should contain the title of the article, the name, affiliation, surface mail and electronic address of each co-author.

All papers will be reviewed by the program committee. Authors will be notified whether their papers are accepted or rejected by April 8th, 2006. The timeslot is 30 minutes for presentations (including 5 minutes for discussions). After the conference, authors selected for publishing by the program committee will be invited to send a definitive version of their papers for publication.
