ACL-SIGLEX workshop, 12 July 2002, Philadelphia
This workshop will be a forum for the presentation of new work in the field of unsupervised or minimally supervised lexical learning, as well as an opportunity to survey the state of the art. In addition to novel approaches to the acquisition of subcategorization or translation information, we will welcome and encourage papers that address the coverage of all aspects of the lexicon, such as morphological, semantic, or collocational information, as well as the identification of out-of-vocabulary words and their lexical properties. Evaluation of systems on public domain test sets, although not required, is strongly encouraged.
We invite submissions on the following topics:
Papers can cover one or more of these areas. Papers including demonstrations of implemented lexical learning tools are encouraged.
Papers should be submitted electronically in Postscript, PDF, or Microsoft Word format to: Joseph Pentheroudakis. Submissions should conform to the two-column format of ACL proceedings and should not exceed eight (8) pages, including references. We strongly recommend the use of ACL-2002 style files, available from the ACL-2002 program committee Web site.
