    First Call for Papers

    ATALA Workshop "TEXT TYPOLOGIES FOR NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING"

    Paris (France) December 9, 2006.

    The ATALA Workshop "Text Typology for Natural Language Processing" will
    be held in Paris on December 9, 2006. This workshop is open to all
    researchers working in the field of Text Typology and/or Text
    Categorisation, ranging from Text/Corpus Linguistics to Machine
    Categorisation, from Computational Linguistics to Discourse Analysis,
    etc. This one day work-shop style forum will encourage discussions
    between scholars belonging to different research currents but sharing
    similar research interests concerning the notion of text typology.

    We suggest the following points for discussion :

    - How to measure distances between texts ? Which factors or features
    (lexical, syntactic, semantic, pragmatic) to use ?

    - How text categorisation affect the use of NLP tools and vici versa ?

    - How to (re)consider results obtained by different approaches
    (categorisations induced from text groupings a posteriori and those
    projected on texts a priori) ?

    - Can a single text reflect different text types ? How to detect
    heterogeneous parts on a document level ?

    - In which way structured documents renew the issue of text topology ?

    Contributions concerning other relevant subjects are also welcomed.

    We expect short communication proposals (1 to 5 pages) in WORD or PDF
    format to be sent by November 10, 2006.
