IWPT09: Analyse syntaxique statistique pour des langages à morphologie riche

Analyse syntaxique statistique pour des langages à morphologie riche

IWPT'09 Discussion Panel
Date: Thursday, October 8 2009, 16:00--18:15

Objectives

Following very interesting discussions that occured during EACL09 between various researchers, the idea of having an opportunity to talk about the issues we are all having in statistical parsing of morphologically rich languages emerged and seemed such a good idea that we decided to take advantage of IWPT'09 to organize a panel on this topic. Presentations will be made about the various issues faced by the community in order to share our sometimes similar solutions for different languages.

This panel will be kindly chaired by Josef van Genabith (CNGL, Dublin City University) and of course it is open to everyone who might be interested.

The local organisers wish to thank all people involved who made this meeting possible.
