Spring ParGram Meeting 2014
by Sebastian Sulger 03 Aug '15

03 Aug '15

Hi, At this year's ParGram meeting, we decided we should have 2 meetings in 2014 (spring and fall). Regarding the spring meeting, Ron Kaplan has volunteered to host it at Nuance in California. To find a suitable date, I created a Doodle poll which you can find here: http://doodle.com/niwz4hgptcn3rpsr Please participate in the poll so that we can find a date that suits most of us. By the way: This will be a special occasion since we will be celebrating 20 years of ParGram! Cheers, Jani -- Sebastian Sulger FB Sprachwissenschaft Universität Konstanz http://ling.uni-konstanz.de/pages/home/sulger

Call for Papers (Special Issue) Grammar Engineering: Precision Grammars Precision grammars are encodings of linguistic knowledge in a representation that is both interpretable by humans and and usable in parsers and sentence generators, which aim to handle rare constructions as well as the more common ones. LiLT solicits papers for a special issue on precision grammars, with a particular interest in the following topics: * Mixed or hybrid models of statistical and precision grammars * Gradient grammaticality in precision grammars * The use of machine learning and treebanks in creating precision grammars * Parsing evaluation metrics that focus on evaluating the coverage of rare phenomena * Applications that show the importance/advantages of precision grammars; * Handling of cross linguistic generalizations and typological information in multi-lingual projects * Precision grammar projects on less-studied languages The deadline for submissions is: October 31, 2015 Submissions should be sent to azaenen(a)stanford.edu <mailto:azaenen@stanford.edu> There is no special format required for submissions but accepted papers need to be submitted in LATEX. The editorial board for this issue is consists of Doug Arnold (University of Essex), Emily Bender (University of Washington), Philippe Blache (Aix Marseille Université), Gerlof Bouma (University of Gothenburg) , Gosse Bouma (University of Groningen), Miriam Butt (University of Konstanz), Eric De La Clergerie (INRIA), Dan Flickinger (Stanford University), Jan Hajič (Charles University of Prague), Julia Hockenmaier (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign), Ron Kaplan (Nuance), Tracy Holloway King (Ebay), Lori Levin (Carnegie Mellon University), Detmar Meurers (University of Tübingen), Joakim Nivre (Uppsala University), Aarne Ranta (Chalmers University), Stephan Oepen (University of Oslo), Adam Przepiórkowski (Polish Academy of Sciences), Laura Rimell (Cambridge University), Victoria Rosén (University of Bergen), Louisa Sadler (University of Essex), Mark Steedman (Edinburgh University), Gertjan van Noord (University of Groningen), Annie Zaenen (Stanford University).

possible interns at Intel
by Mistica, Meladel 23 Jun '15

Dear all, We are looking for two interns for a couple of months at Intel, and I was hoping that you may have LFG postgraduates that you could recommend. We need two people as soon as possible: one who speaks Italian and another who speaks French. Preferably, they would also be interested in computational linguistics. If you have any students who fit this profile, please ask them to contact me or Martin (CC’ed). We’d prefer it if they can work with us in Santa Clara (Silicon Valley), but it’s fine if they can only work in the EU – we have an office in Seville. Thank you in advance! Best wishes, Mel
