[open-linguistics] Call for Participation: 2nd Workshop on Linked Data in Linguistics (LDL), collocated with the Generative Lexicon (GL) Conference, September 23rd, Pisa

[Blume, Maria]

Hi Phillip: I have a quick question on registration. Do we register for the conference and the workshop, or both? I wasn't sure if you attend the workshop only or whether the conference registration included the workshop already. Thanks, María

Subject: [open-linguistics] Call for Participation: 2nd Workshop on Linked Data in Linguistics (LDL), collocated with the Generative Lexicon (GL) Conference, September 23rd, Pisa

=== Call for Participation ===

2nd Workshop on Linked Data in Linguistics (LDL-2013): Representing and linking lexicons, terminologies and other language data

http://ldl2013.org/

Collocated with the Conference on Generative Approaches to the Lexicon, September 23rd in Pisa, Italy

http://glcon2013.org/

=== Motivation ===

The explosion of information technology has led to a substantial growth in quantity, diversity and complexity of linguistic data accessible over the world wide web. The lack of interoperability between linguistic and language resources represents a major challenge that needs to be addressed, in particular, if information from different sources is to be combined, like, say, machine-readable lexicons, corpus data and terminology repositories. For these types of resources, domain- specific standards have been proposed, yet, issues of interoperability between different types of resources persist, commonly accepted strategies to distribute, access and integrate their information have yet to be established, and technologies and infrastructures to address both aspects are still under development.

The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers from various fields of linguistics, natural language processing, and information technology and computer science to present and discuss principles, case studies and best practices for representing, publishing and linking linguistic data collections, including corpora, dictionaries, lexical networks, translation memories, thesauri, etc., infrastructures developed on that basis, their use of existing standards, and the publication and distribution policies that were adopted.

The intended audience includes computational linguists and NLP engineers interested in the application of Semantic Web formalisms and related technologies to language data, empirically-working linguists and lexicographers interested in the representation, exchange and interlinking of linguistic data and metadata, and developers of infrastructures for linguistic data and other researchers with an interest in both aspects.

More information on the workshop can be found here: http://ldl2013.org/

We look forward to meeting you in Pisa!
