****************************
First Call for Participation

ISDD 06 - International Symposium: DISCOURSE and DOCUMENT
Caen (France) 15-16 June 2006

http://discours2006.info.unicaen.fr/

****************************

In connection with the development of digital documents, discourse
linguistics, document engineering and NLP are increasingly
converging: a) applying corpus analysis methods to discourse calls
for greater use of NLP techniques; b) new modes of access to
documents’ contents place more emphasis on exploiting discourse
structure. This convergence is manifest in a number of joint studies,
and results in cross fertilisation between text and discourse
linguistics on the one hand, document engineering and NLP on the other.

The Discourse and Document Symposium will bring together researchers
interested in what can be termed the “document level” in discourse
linguistics, in computational linguistics, and in document engineering.

The programme is organised in FOUR SESSIONS:
- Corpus analyses and modelling of discourse organisation;
- New document types and new modes of access to textual information;
- Computational approaches to discourse and document processing;
- NLP systems Demonstrations.

with INVITED SPEAKER
Simone Teufel, University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory, UK.

and a STATE OF THE ART ROUND TABLE
“Discourse and Document”: what prospects for a multidisciplinary
approach? Research themes, applications, organisation of a research
community.
