Description:
The workshops hosted at this iteration of KONVENS also reflect the interaction of, and common themes shared between, Computational Linguistics and Information Science: a focus on on evaluation, represented by shared tasks on Named Entity Recognition (GermEval) and on Sentiment Analysis (GESTALT); a growing interest in the processing of non-canonical text such as that found in social media (NLP4CMC) or patent documents (IPaMin); multi-disciplinary research which combines Information Science, Computer Aided Language Learning, Natural Language Processing, and E-Lexicography with the objective of creating language learning and training systems that provide intelligent feedback based on rich knowledge (ISCALPEL).
